a new year, a new me/you?

As you can see from the time that has passed since my last blogpost, i have been taking things easy. And i plan to do that for the rest of januari, for starters. The last months were very busy and at the end of 2010 i felt satisfied and happy but also a little tired :).

What to wish for in 2011? Reading most of the blogs it would have to be having more time and many more hours in a day. However i don't want to wish for longer days anymore. It would only make my to do list longer and i would end up working more hours and still feeling that i am in need of more time. No, my resolution for this year is not to want (to do) so much and be happy with the things i accomplish each day. You know, be done with crossing off 9 things on your list, only to feel stressed you didn't cross of the 10th!

And it's important to resolve to keep your resolutions. So in januari i'm only doing what i can - taking things a little easier in the shops. I do ship packages almost everyday but it takes me a little longer to do custom orders, answer convo's (i always felt i need to answer within a couple of hours, even if it's right before bedtime) and my shops will see new items, just not everyday. And i have to say, it is a great feeling to be more relaxed about that (even though sometimes it is a struggle to keep me from putting pressure on myself! something about teaching an old dog new tricks .... not that i'm that old :).

And what else to wish for in 2011? 2010 was a beautiful year - if 2011 can be the same, with good health and hapiness for the people i love dearly and for myself - i will be very happy! And that is what i wish for everyone - good health, happiness all around and let's all not put so much pressure on ourselves and just try to enjoy life - we've only got one! And maybe get some more of the feeling below:
