The Year Is Almost Gone

I am amazed that 2011 is coming to a close.  I believe I will remember this year fondly...there have been a lot of firsts and and lots of fun. Christmas was a sweet time, things went fairly smoothly with the ex and the kiddos seemed to have an easy time with the switcheroo.  It's never fun to send them off, especially on a holiday.  Still my own evening was relaxing and fun.  Now we're visiting distant family and I'm just exhausted from trying to cram too much into too little time.

I haven't had much time to think about 2012 - I know there are some things I hope to leave in the past, I know there are some things I hope to add.  I know there are lots more that I haven't had time to think about yet.  I feel like it's time to get serious about what I want for me.  No more excuses, 2012 needs to be a year of action.

My "one word" for 2011 was Wisdom.  I can't say I've gained much, yet the awareness helps me be more intentional.  I'm thinking over some words for 2012.  It will probably be mid-January before I've settled on one.

I'm okay with that.

    I've stumbled upon your post and have read several of them. I hope all is well, that you have a better 2012 and that you enjoy your children. Best wishes. I hope that if I find my way back to your blog that I find nothing but good.

    Hi there!
    I came across your blog recently, I am new to the blog scene :). I think you are referring to a divorce? correct me if I am wrong. If you are, I can definitly relate. Both of my parents have been divorced twice each, it was the hardest for my brother and I around christmas time, getting torn. If this is a new separation, things will get easier. It is awesome that you are going to start 2012 with the positive attitude you have. :) Hope everything goes well :)

    Thank you so much dear Missy for sharing your journey with others. I have just set up my ever first blog and posted my ever first post few minutes ago and then I saw the title of your blog Far From Flawless which resonates with my heart's desire to relax and stop stressing about this perfection which is not even attainable. May this New Year 2012 bring you lots of Self Love and Acceptance for Your Beautiful Divine Self and lots of action towards finding and realising what You want. All The very Best, Missy! Im glad to have found your blog!
    Lots of love,
    Tatiana
