2011... Fast Approaching

Yes it's close to the end of 2010 and 2011 is fast approaching, in fact it's only a little over 24 hours away.  It promises to be a great year, after all the lessons, trials and tribulations of 2010 one can only expect 2011 to be on fire!

All the Christmas stuff is over, done and dusted, and I thank the Universe for making it quick and relatively painless this year.  I hope that is a sign that next year will be better than ever, I think sometimes how Christmas goes can indicate how the new year will be...

New Years Eve is something of a non event for me, really I have a better time on any other night of the year!  It used to be a big deal, with lots of planning in advance: where to go, who was coming, what to wear, what to book in advance, where to stay, how to get home etc.  But for the last 5 or more years, I haven't really given it any thought at all.  This year it's a play it by ear scenario, but to be honest I'd rather stay home and watch some old movies haha.

So, what will the new year bring?  I am not one for making resolutions.  In my case, resolutions only lead to disappointment!  I do make plans and I do have things I want to accomplish but I keep them to myself and in my head and therefore if there is a disappointment, only I know about it!  However in general, next year I plan to get ahead at work and finally get a pay rise which is like the impossible dream after all the silly events at my work this year, I'm hoping things will stabilise next year...   Also I want to give the online business thing another go, Lord knows how I have given it a go over the past 10 years and have gotten nowhere really fast, however, I would like to do it again and see where it goes this time, yet again!

I plan to do a little travelling, maybe not Europe as originally thought, but at least something, somewhere, it's been too long and I'm getting itchy to travel.

And apart from that I hope to grow as a person even more, apply the lessons learnt, enjoy life each and every day more and more, keep a better outlook on things and focus on the good stuff.  I think that's always a good start to any year :)

So to all of you who are kind enough to give this blog the time of day, I wish you a very Happy New Year and hope that you celebrate New Years Eve in style!  

Happy New Year, all the very best and see you in 2011!!!
