Well, that’s me in the picture, having fun in my garden. That huge silly expression of joy and laughter on my face makes me feel like I’m a kid again. So far, 2010 has been great to me. It’s only the start of the year, but, I am optimistic.

I’ve been very productive so far, actually. I had a lot of goals lined up and I’ve ticked off two of them. Odds and ends and errands are done to a perfect T. Everything’s running smoothly in my home. Sure, it’s a day-to-day routine. Nothing exciting. But it is so uncomplicated that I am content with things.

There are a lot of things that need to be done around here. Tend to my plants, play with my son, yell at my son, work some, yell at my son more for being such a gorgeous little pain in the ass (he’s annoying but he does it really well), do some renovating, go over an auto insurance quote, do grocery shopping. Little things, really. Every single day. But it keeps me happy and sane. Gone are the days when I actually look for some wild excitement.

I’m settled.
