{things i'm diggin', it's been a while}

 Word of the Year Necklace
  • getting my 'word of the year' necklace in the mail this week.  i love having a touchstone to remind me of my focus.
  • my word of the year.  it feels so strong and so right for this year.
  • walking the talk on my word of the year and getting stuck into some of the things on my fabulously big list.

Our new BBQ
  • our christmas present finally arriving on back order.  i don't think the oven or stove top will be seeing much action for a while.

  • receiving the most gorgeous new handbag from Lara at Thornberry.  We did a swap of a painting for a handbag and she dropped my bag over last week.  i haven't been without it since.  Don't you just love a swap?

Chuck
  • buying some original art from my friend Michelle from Pipi La La.  I've loved her art and her blog for ages and Chuck Bass stole my heart.
  • allowing myself time and space to find my feet in my new job
  • exercising
  • reading
  • signing up for Mati and Lisa's new paint class 'Get Your Paint On'
  • feeling the solidity of my friendships
  • planning a really amazing and meaningful celebration/s for my 40th birthday
  • planning an absolutely incredible treat for myself.  i'll spill the beans on that one soon.
and you?  what are you diggin'?

“When you wake up in the morning, Pooh," said Piglet at last, "what's the first thing you say to yourself?"

"What's for breakfast?" said Pooh. "What do you say, Piglet?"

"I say, I wonder what's going to happen exciting today?" said Piglet.

Pooh nodded thoughtfully. "It's the same thing," he said.”
