I'm not sure where to start, so I'll start with the obvious. Today is the first day of a fresh new year. I love the promise of beginning a new calendar. I love believing that in a single day you can sweep away last year's grime and start all over again. And I love the hopefulness of a new year's resolution.
Let's be real, though. Resolutions are so, so hard to maintain. Every January 1st, every year of my life, I will always resolve to work out like a fiend. And every year, without fail, January will be way too cold and icy to run much, the gym will be overcrowded and my couch will be alluringly cozy and warm. Inevitably, my resolution will fail.
Even so. I am not one to be discouraged from picking the optimistic path, so new year's resolve I do.
Starting this little writing project today is the beginning of a 2016 resolution. I was strongly encouraged to make my journal public (ahem, Brian) and here goes!
I'm not sure what I'll share here yet - probably a mix of travel, food, my dog, pictures and a bunch of other things you don't need to know about but that I insist on telling you. And I swear I'll keep up this resolution. After all, I don't even have to get off my couch for this one.
So, cheers to a bright, shiny new year! Buckle up. Here we go.
