A fresh start...

I am a woman of many mantras. For this new year I will share one of my oldest of standbys...

May you always have...
something to do...
someone to love...
and something to look forward to...

When this sure fire recipe for a contented life is temporarily upset I turn to the fridge.
No, not for food--- though, I do believe a bit of good chocolate makes every situation a smidge more pleasant. I turn to the fridge for fortitude and a really good reality check!
Our fridge door is filled with a revolving exhibit of all sorts of colourful trinkets and visual treasures from places we have been and things we have done.
But it is a simple black and white photograph that I use as a barometer of how my day is really going....
I figure a typical "off-day" for me could not be anywhere near as daunting as an "off-day" was for him...

All the best for 2009!
