Today I had my first 'proper' walk in what seemed like ages. Walter and I headed to the woods - I shuffled along, and he went a little nutty, loving the freedom and space to run around madly chasing sticks and then cooling off in the river.
Back home I sat down with my new diary and a mug of Green and Blacks, and started dreaming about the twelve months ahead. How I love the potential a new year brings, a blank canvas. Bring it on, I say!
Wishing you all a happy, healthy and creative year ahead. As Goethe said:
Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it.
Boldness has genius, power and magic in it.
Begin it now.

Thank you so much for all the emails and comments I've received in the last ten days. Each and every one has made me smile. I've had very little computer time, but hope to catch up in the next few days!

I so like what you've quoted about "beginning it." Yes, every day creates possibilities, not just January 1, but ... it's a great place to start.
