Looking back on 2009

What a year for the changes at 39.

Fibroid cysts. Losing at least 12 pounds during my Lenten Fast. Hormonal changes. Exhausted adrenals. Malnutrition awareness. Changing my lifestyle as well as my diet. Actually cooking out of my cookbooks. Waking up today with a 5-year plan developing in my head.

Yep. Lots of changes. But most of them are on the inside. I guess that comes with the territory leading into the Big Four-Oh.

I got a haircut yesterday, a new doo. I am still committed to not coloring my hair as I believe strongly that I've earned these silver highlights. But, this new cut is probably the best outward sign of the interior life. I'm cutting the dead weight from my world so I can sprint in the direction of my 5-year goals. So, a short cut seems the way to go. Yippee!!

My 2010 wish for you is that you will also know what it feels like to experience joy, beauty, and contentment, no matter your age.

Happy New Year!!!
