This morning, I am enjoying the calm of a quiet house. Those who want to find post-holiday deals are out at the sales and those who don’t want to shop (until later in the day) are tucked in their beds. This gives me a few moments to reflect on the smiles, conversations and snippets recently shared around the table and in the kitchen. I am also taking this moment to think about resolutions for the New Year. I relish the making of a list with dreams for the New Year. The blank page, like a blank slate…hmmmm…where to start…what to keep and what to jettison, what to change, and what to strive for.

Then the reality that so many of my resolutions are similar year to year: watch my weight, eat less processed foods and more healthy foods, stay within a budget (i.e. save more), and get more exercise…

And I struggle putting my pen to the blank piece of paper. What will make this year different?

What about you?
