This year.

I walked in the door a few days after Christmas feeling the holiday hangover harder than any whiskey I’d ever got my drankin’ on with. In my mind I said to myself, ” I was over the holiday.” So, now I find myself on this Wellness Wednesday taking care of my mind and body, slowly pulling the holiday decor down to hold more of a New Year lighted feel. Music turned and tuned up to the band City and Colour. Ginger tumeric tea waiting for me on the counter and a Hibiscus tea chillin’ in the fridge. Drink the water I tell myself. Re-hydrate. Listen to the music I tell myself. Restore. Focus on the new year ahead, what you are putting out there, what you are receiving and not a bit of attention in what’s return to sender. My mind keeps swirling about resolutions as though for the first time in a truly long time I may make some. Resolve. As I approach my 50th year around the sun and moon I can’t help but feel like it’s a resolving year ahead. This year has taught me that healing for one’s self doesn’t look the same for others…and in that healing doesn’t exactly mean all will be well or come together the same. This year has taught me that we don’t have to hold the same goals in life. This year, this year, this year….

This year has taught me to rest my third eye, I need to attend more concerts, travel more, read more, walk more and overall get back to things that make me feel like I am thriving. This year, this year, this year…

This year has brought about awareness in my Motherhood to Grandmahood to what kind of aging home/health I want to push forward in many years to come. This year, this year, this year…..

I am over this year for sure, as hard as I am over Christmas, but holding gratitude with what’s been gained in all that teaching.

This year, this year, this year…

Goodbye Christmas, goodbye 2022
