It's coming up to my birthday this week. a time for reflection in a way and another start to the new year if it hasn't quite got going yet. Particularly if my "Things I'm going to do this year" list hasn't started! We're only about eight weeks into the new year after all. So it's quite good having a birthday in wintery February. No fireworks or party poppers this time. Just me who will sing Happy Birthday to me around in my head all day with a silly grin on my face. I'll want to stop people in the street to tell them my news, although I probably won't!


I liked how hubby described it last month, the day before he reached the age I'll be on Thursday - the counter is about to tick over - nice one!


I like my birth date too. It's one of those special ones that can't always be planned for like 050505 . My birthdate is 26262. Commonly written as 26.2.62. and I probably share it with a multitude of people!



Can I put my plans for the year in writing?

Relationship with God
The main thing is my relationship with God I want it to grow and it is doing. I've learned that my relationship with Him stagnates when I stop moving forward. A pond stagnates unless it has a way of getting a fresh water supply into its system. So this year no going backwards!

Writing
This year I'm planning to spend more time writing my story, it seems presumptious of me to call it a novel and I'm keeping the plot under wraps till it's all done and printed. But by the research I've done it seems unique. It all depends whether it's readable Ha Ha!

Quilt
The other thing I want to do is to make a hole in my fabric stash and make something. Maybe a quilt.
