2014 has been a pretty amazing year for me, I really don't think that I can complain at all. I began it with the Resolution to just be happy! To live my life for me and to put myself first and keep smiling. I started this year doing exactly that, I lived my life my way and I made sure that I went on plenty of adventures. Then, despite my work life taking a little bit of a downer, I was lucky enough to find my girl all over again!! I have always raved about Fate, but I think that Tara and I finding each other again and falling head over heals back in love with each other is proof that Destiny really does work miracles. :)
I kept my New Year's Resolution right till the last day!! I have not been happier than I am right now. 2015 is set to be a great year; I have a great job, a loving family, a beautiful girlfriend and kitten and of course the crack pot of a chocolate lab that is currently rolling around at the side of me!! This year I haven't made Resolutions as such, I have just decided that I want to keep living my life to be happy. My January plan is to get fit - I am going to start Insanity again and then as the weather slowly gets better I am going to start getting up early to walk the dog and then slowly work my way up to going jogging with him! We'll see how long I manage to keep to that part eh?! Other than that I want to keep having adventures, take too many photos and do some new things! Take some risks and do a few things that scare me... It's all about new experiences this year! I might even get around to doing that Skydive this summer!
Vernon has taken up residence on my new desk now that I have moved in with Tara. His travels are up for the year, I am a little disappointed that he didn't get out much these last couple of months but once the weather turned bad and my money started to run thin, he didn't get to go very far. To catch up on any of Vernon's adventures of 2014 all you have to do is check out my Instagram and look for the #vernonsadventure - there are over a hundred photos to browse through.
My book adventure went well too - I read over forty books in 2014 and am still going strong - I have decided to keep up the #mycrazyreadinghabits and not only keep updating my book covers, but to update some of the strange places that I end up reading in :) I might even start up a hashtag for my writing too as I plan to do more this year - and to give myself a kick up the ass where my novels are concerned. I need to get some more copies of the first one out into the world and get writing the second one as I kind of fizzled a bit where they were concerned after getting too many no's from agents. But I have looked at it in a whole new light and realised that the no's are just the agents who don't love it. None of them have said anything bad about my story or the way it was written, they just don't like it enough to represent it and I now realise that someone who is going to sell my story to a publisher and help me achieve my dream is going to have to love it just as much as I do!
Anyway, I think I am rambling a little now, so I am going to leave it here with a quote that I have heard quite a bit over the last few days. I find it quite inspiring and I hope that I really can write myself an amazing story for this year!! One more thing that I do plan to do is keep a journal/smash book for the year as my journal from this year failed miserably! I just have to wait for the new Gorjuss journal to arrive in the post - until it does I may have to write on some cute writing paper to stick in!
So, I hope that you have all written a great first page - remember to keep dreaming and live life to the fullest! But most of all - stay happy!!
Happy New Year - love me and my little family!
