Wow what a year 2011 has been. I have been on such an adventure, and it has been amazing.
Christmas this year was just one of the best. DH and I went on on a date for the first time in ages. And yes we laughed, and ate, and enjoyed being together. Then being asked to Kitty Sit the most gorgeous kitty, called Simba, for out friends Audrey, and Hardly. Simba was such a joy, and knowing that their beautiful children would be surprised with their new present made it all the more special.
Then to Christmas Day. DH and I always hide, and spend it in our own, but this year was different. We were going to his sisters. Ayse, to celebrate with the rest of his family. They get together every year. Yes, I was a bit nervous, would we want to escape????Noooooooooowayyyyyyy. This year was a slightly smaller gathering of 24 ( thats immediate family)!!!! Yes DH has a large family. We both had such a laugh. His sisters, Ayse, Nurgan, Gulgan, Andrew his brother in law, nieces, and nephews are just so funny, in a mad and crazy way, and I love it ....a laugh every minute. We ate gorgeous food, played games, and relaxed.....wonderful. And the Secret Santa was so much fun. I got DHs sister Nurgan, so I made up a pamper box, filed with loads of yummies. She loved it

Yes the year had its challenges, but I will not remember them. Instead I will be thankful for them, and let them go. They have made me embrace my life, just the way it is. They have given me the strength to say no more!!
So onto 2012. I am so excited. Adoption, and the release of our film. I am going to knock this tired body into action, and get more creative. And who knows what else I will be thanking the Universe for this time next year
So may I take the time to thank you, for you, and your love and support. You are amazing. My wish is for your lives to be filled with magical manifestations for 2012. And when they do, please let me know. All that you wish for is RIGHT HERE, just believe that you truly deserve it. This is no such thing a scarcity. Abundance is yours.
Namaste
