This year I will say YES to...

Okay, I'll put a stake in the ground, albeit minor. Besides all the stuff I've been declaring I'll continue to work on this week, I will say YES to some new things:

Experimenting with some new cooking. I'm not saying I'll start eating fish but I am open to new healthy vegetable recipes for instance. Dark greens like kale, etc.

Poetry reading with friends...and maybe even writing.

I will say yes to skiing and snow shoeing whenever I can. And I will take the one hour ice skating lesson I bought at the church auction! And I'll happily, gratefully continue the biking and hiking.

I will say yes to some specific ways to strengthen and tone my arms and abs. I might even buy that ridiculous gadget I saw on TV last night. Totally unnecessary but if it helps me to actually do it, who cares?

I will say yes to creative and craft endeavors as they strike my fancy but I will say no to feeling guilty about not completing every last one of them. I can declare it acceptable to have projects in progress and it may take some time but my experience is I DO eventually pick them back up!

Okay, enough yak about what I'm going to do...it's time this crystal clear Sunday morning to actually go DO something. In the immediate case, this means to clear off and find the top of my desk! Then church, then the Compassion class, then home for more nesting and a yummy chicken and brussel sprouts dinner I'm going to cook for myself. It IS feeling like home!
