Or whoop in delight celebrating your joys and flow....

I'm lost in a sea of introspection at this time of year...with all the gray wet weather we have had lately...

Last year I was in a funky sea of introspection. I spent a year there. This was a good thing. I know who I am, what I'm about in my job, with my self, with my kids. Now I have a funky bunch of new friends, my kids and I are cool together, I'm secure in my job, I have an outlet in music for my emotions, and I'm having fun.

I'm in a good mood, and I realize am and can be responsible for that. It's a good place to be.

Introspection is usually a December sport for me, and by now I'm prioritizing the goals I set as a result of that "inner inventory" and the resulting "out with the old, useless attitudes" to make room for the gifts and attitudes that are going to take me new places this year. Yeah, January usually has a tinge of melancholy for me as everyone retreats from the streets (here in the Northern Hemisphere) to the warmth of their houses and the frequency of gatherings at the holidays is replaced with solitude. So, I try to use it to get my own act together, and this year I've decided to plan a couple of extra gatherings, just to keep the energy flowing somewhat between friends. (I'll have a Brigid "first signs of spring" party on February 2nd -- a Saturday!! woo-hoo!) and a Leap-Day dinner out with friends, I think... both works in progress.)

My running/fitness calendar is shaping up so that I can participate in the races I've chosen for this year
I'm spending some extra time with the mandolin
The garden sits by itself, although I visit it late at night on occasion to listen to the hoot owl
Spring cleaning urges -- I'm going with them coz who knows when *that'll* happen again. LOL

Nice question! Thanks.
