Happy New Year!!

Oh, what a good start to the new year! We attended a New Year's Day party and we were instructed to bring our hangovers and hunger. It was an adult party with kids present, meaning the kids were expected to herd together and entertain themselves. I really can't think of any better way to start the new year. The kids got a pinata and the adults had coffee and booze.

One of my resolutions was to drink more coffee so I stuck to the coffee. I've shocked my husband and my friends and myself, to be frank. I left the party totally buzzed on coffee. If only there were some bloody marys then I would have been making huge progress on my goals.

I thought I had picked my word of the year: flourish. But I don't like saying it nor do I particularly like how it feels as it passes through my lips, although I do love the various definitions. Now I'm considering magic, splendour, bloom and discover. Maybe, infuse? I'll give myself a few more days to pin it down.

so here I am on the first day of the new year and I'm posting a photo taken from today. Perhaps the habit that drove me nuts in 2014 is going to be a habit that sticks around a little longer. And that's not such a bad thing, is it?
