happy oh nine!

firstly, happy new year! hope you had fun, whether it was eating blueberry sauce on the couch (us) or taking tequila shots and playing journey when the ball dropped (mike neighbor).

a little sad to say goodbye to such a solid set of twelve months, but optimistic for the ones ahead.

i was working on a long list of super specific resolutions to type out here, but nah. i've already got a constant ticker running of things i want to do and change and learn (zen! sign language! brioche! black belt!) and bleh - it can get manic. for me, for this year, i'm just focusing on:

simp-li-fy.

that's my umbrella to stand under for the year. the following will be under that umbrella with me:

focus on the few things i really want to do. and do them.
eliminate clutter. all kinds.
more quality, less quantity.
stop drumming up drama.
less worrying.
more grateful.

i listed it up after all, but this one makes me feel bouncy instead of holy what have i signed up for.

off we go!

    i love your resolution. keeping it simple is a great idea so you can focus on important things & really make them happen.
    i might have to try & adopt your way of thinking on this, i tend to choose WAY too many things to work on and ultimately fail.

    simple. i liiiike!

  2. thanks jordan!

    i like to sign up for 12,000 things at once and then burn out/lose interest and instead sit on the couch watching magnum p.i.

    here's to slowing it down and keeping it simp!
