Farewell 2010

Farewell, 2010 don’t let the door hit you on the way out. I am ready say goodbye to 2010, it has been a tough year and from reading the status updates on Facebook there are many who feel the same way. Some of my Facebook friends are showing some of that “glass full” optimism as they bid the year that was 2010 away.

2011 is …. new … fresh, is it an excuse to wipe away the mistakes of the year (or could it be years) gone by and a new year is an excuse to start again fresh?

My forecast from Astrology Zone by Susan Miller tells me that 2011 will be better and the the woes I have felt (along with many others) should be better in 2011. In December I was told to wait until making a New Years Resolution until after the 4th January, so with that advice … I am not going to start anything until after that date. Of course one cannot even remotely consider making any decisions until January 2011 forecast is released. The team at Astrology Zone are taking New Years Day off so I am just going to have to wait.

So while I wait… is making a New Year resolution/s worthwhile? 5% succeed until the end of the year… can I make mine last longer by delaying the start of announcing to the world and commencing that new “plan”. So you are just going to have to wait and see if I succeed with mine… when I finally decide their exacting parameters.

Hello world!

Well I am going to stick with the default hello world title.. because after installing many blogs for academic purposes I have decided to start writing and continue to write about 2011.

I didn’t take this photo but it is really cool and wish I had thought of this myself and yes I “borrowed” it from Facebook. But sometimes you never know if they actually took the photo or it is also “borrowed”.

Anyways this is an apt picture for me as in 2011 I move back to the coast and will be less than 1 km from the beach. 2011 is one of those years for me.. it is a head down .. bum up and get the job done. With some hard work and determination I think it can be one of those milestone years for all the right reasons.

Now I know it is the 30th Dec but today that all important phone call arrived … you have a job! So the relocation has all been brought forward a week and no lazing around unpacking and getting settled.

Today I bought my 2011 diary… one of these years I will use a diary for the whole year.. maybe 2011 is that year?

So here is to me blogging how 2011 goes for me… I have bought a lotto ticket for tonight and Saturday night..and moving date to temporary accomodation has been set for Jan 3, 2011, first day of work Jan 4, 2011, the beach house move has been pushed back to Jan 8, 2011 finally the essay due Jan 10, 2011.

Time management is going to be key in 2011 along with a work / life balance and maybe even some R&R for “just me”… a nice dream for 2011.
