Happy 2007!

New Years Eve really does set the tone for the beginning of the new year, don’t you think? Everyone puts so much pressure on New Years. What party am I going to? Who am I going to bring to the party? What if I don’t have a date, and so on and so on. Here’s the thing, stop with the pressure! Throw your own party if you don’t get invited to one. And unless you are in a serious relationship New Years Eve is a lot of pressure for a first date so don’t sweat it!

Sometimes I think every year of my life actually goes a little bit faster than the last. Maybe there is some sort of scientific phenomenon to explain this? I will have to google that! Anyways, New Years day really does make me feel refreshed. A whole new year’s worth of possibilities lay out ahead of us. Anything can be accomplished this year. And as I have mentioned in the past, January is my un-birthday month!

When I was a kid I counted years from September to September, the beginning of one school year to the next. As an adult I count from January to January, and when I had my own kids I am sure it will go back to September to September. I just hope that every new years day will feel as exciting and fresh as this one does. And that the magic of a whole new year will always hold endless possibilities, hope and hopefully a lot of laughter yet unheard.
