January So Far

I love that even the FLOTUS is not immune to January's crazy-making with self-reinventions and restart button.  Some of us reorganized our closets and threw some stuff out (we haven't worn in 5 years   at least), and others just flipped and trot out new bangs - in time for a birthday, New Year, and new presidential term - complete with a new Twitter account (#FLOTUS).  I am a fan.

I have a to-do list myself, but the problem is that,  the list is getting longer and so far, more and more boxes are being left unchecked.  Clearly, getting out of the forest and actually seeing the trees, is still  a problem.  

So far, my goal to show up at the gym at least 3x a week already hit a bump this week.  This new find at Pinterest has planted a new seed of inspiration (or hope) to make up for more bumps in the future.

We have been trying to get our small business going this year - so for the past few days - the immediate goal had been to upload products into our website - quite tedious - and more often a task that loses out to sleep a lot.  One day at a time though we have been making progress and we wish for the day when we are truly up and running.

So far this month, this year, I am really trying to be "more in the present" - and avoid getting all caught up with the "daily grind."  Some days are better than others - I'd say that much - but as Mr. Gump would say:  life is like a box of chocolate... I just really need to believe that I don't know what I am going to get - but whatever it is, it is better be as deliciously beautiful as below.
