Happy New Year to all!
I think it has been a whirlwind of a holiday season for most that I’ve talked to recently, and I have to admit at least a modicum of relief at the idea of having some more time to myself again coming up here. Not that school, work, family, friends, and writing don’t keep me busy enough without holidays, though! Plus, this little blog, which I’ve more or less neglected for the past little bit.
In celebration of a new year, I thought I’d share some of the things I am looking forward to in the coming months:
1. Continuing with my education in classical homeopathy. So far I’ve learned the most fascinating things, been inspired in a whole new realm, and met some awesome people!
2. Meeting my brand new niece who was born yesterday, and spending more time with my other nieces, nephew, and family and friends in general.
3. Continuing to write my column about social interactions as it moves into both online and print editions.
4. Learn more about photography with the help of some of our new Christmas/ birthday gifts including a remote control, new lens, and a reflector, as well as a gift of “photo tour” to learn how to do night photography. Look out Ansel Adams!
5. The Great Gatsby- have y’all seen the trailers for this?
6. Mad Men returns… as does Girls… and Breaking Bad final season, part 2!
7. Maaaaaybe a little travel if all of the stars can align.
8. Craft projects, specifics TBD.
9. Reading a lot of new books (I just finished The Chaperone, a fun read, and I’m on the tail end of a book called Signed, Mata Hari, and it is awesome. Check it out!). On my list are Sweet Tooth, Flight Behavior, The Bloodletter’s Daughter, and Gillian Flynn’s other novels (loved Gone Girl).
10. Keeping my damn self healthy with sleep, food, exercise, relaxation, good times, and (preventative) doctoring!
What are you all looking forward to in 2013?
Salud!
Meri
Hey girl, I feel like it’s been forever since I’ve seen you on here! Hope all is well!
I’m looking forward to starting my book blog on top of my music blog (I’m crazy)
Finishing up my 2nd draft of my YA/NA novel and then cleaning it up more and then trying to publish it.
Traveling to US cities and possibly Canada.
Going to lots of concerts.
That’s my list!
Yes I took a little hiatus haha! Good to hear from you too- can’t wait to read about all of your concerts and travels!
Oh, and a book blog? count me in for sure!
Sounds like you really have been busy. Lots of people neglect their blogs this time of year, so don’t worry. Congrats on the new niece, too
Babies are so cool. My twin sister is a naturopath with a focus on homeopathy. It is great to have that resource. Homeopathy has helped my family out in so many ways. Especially when my son was a baby with all his little fevers and such. Good luck with your studies. I can’t wait to see your awesome photos, too!
That is cool to hear that your sister is on a similar path! I am excited to be able to practice and help others (and myself) more!
Happy 2013, Meri! I hope it’s a good one for both of us! Enjoy that new little niece.
Thanks- I hope so too
oh nice! ya I would like to be better at photography too… but the equipment is quite expensive :S happy 2013!
It is- we’re still taking baby steps with buying new stuff for the camera!
I want to read Signed, Mata Hari. It sounds like my kind of book.
it was a pretty fast read, too, short chapters and the way it goes back and forth between two chronological stories makes you turn the pages!
I’m so excited for Breaking Bad!
I also can’t wait to see The Host. I loved the book and hope the movie does it justice.
Hmm I’ve not heard of that, book or movie!
Happy New Year to you as well, I’m looking forward to seeing more of your photography
Thank you- I look forward to more of your recipes!
Congratulations on the birth of your niece! I can’t think of a better way to start off the new year.
It is very exciting!
congrats on the new family member! happy new year!
Thanks! you too!
I’m looking forward to books and getting my house organized and writing. I hope to blog more in 2013 than I did in the last six months of 2012. Happy New Year!
yeah I’ve let the blogging slack a bit too. Winter is usually a good time to get back into it!
I have a trip planned to Louisville to visit a friend-through-blogging coming up….but I definitely hope there is more travel in my future! I am WAY behind on Mad Men—missed the whole last season due to lack of cable–but maybe I can look forward to it appearing on Netflix so I can catch up? (And still be a season behind?
)
I”m still a season behind on Downton Abbey for that same reason- come on netflix! GIve us season 2!
Hey Girl! Happy 2013!
Sounds like you’ve got a lot to look for this year, keep it up!
Have an excellent year ahead
Thanks you too!
Happy New Year! I’m looking forward to so much this year!
I’m looking forward to drooling over more of your recipes
