2011 ...

... is a year of plans.

There will be more

• knitting and a mastering (or should that be mistressing) of cables
• sewing (of our own clothes)
• learning new things (crochet for starters)
• planting veggies in the garden and eating them (that means you too, Frankie Boy)
• trips (to the Isle of Mull, the Cotswolds, Finland, the beach (lots) and Dorset are being planned)
• exercise & fresh air
• embracing of the moment
• music in our lives, both live and just around us at home
• art
• locally sourced food on our plates
• blogging and photos
• comments on blogs and yet no guilt if I don't find the time
• sleep ( a girl can dream ...)

There will be less

• screen time
• guilt
• worry about what others think
• fear of the future
• "responsibly sourced Madagascan prawns" on our plates (oh, yes, I fell for this one a month ago and hubby is still laughing at me!)
• time spent with people that don't sustain me or "get it" with regard to the D

Are you planning more or less of anything this year?

Happy 2011 and I look forward to sharing this year with you.

My husband posted this the other day (it's a friend of his) and I wanted to share it with you today, at the beginning of a new year.

It's raw beauty brings me to tears and it feels such a privilege to hear it each and every time.
