A New Year A New Beginning

Wow, what a skyrocket ride 2010 was.  Glad it's over.

And here we are in the first part of 2011.  This year feels so different to me.  Maybe it's because of all the seeming little things that have been occurring.

First I asked my car payment company at the beginning of  January to lower my payment.  They not only lowered it but I didn't have to pay my January bill.  The new payment will take affect in February.  The payment will only be lowered until July but that is a big chunk of time.

Then in the midst of storms in California, my telephone and internet went out for almost 10 days during the time I was switching service over to a faster  web speed.  They gave me a credit which resulted in my January telephone bill only being $1.38.  I will also probably get a credit next month also.

I have another part time position which is paying nicely as well as going to part time in my other position and getting my social security check for a handsome amount in April.

I have been saving change and dollar bills on my alter and for the second time over a pay period, I have money in my wallet.

I think I have finally gotten the handle on all this.

This year feels more prosperous, abundant and hopeful than all the years I can remember.

I also have been exploring some fascinating new things in my life and have that little tingle of excitement all over.  For me, being in my 60's has given me a new found alertness to what is actually around me and within me.

I think I have rounded the bend a bit and pose to all of you the question, "What is different about this year for you."  "What have you decided to step out and do because of that."  "What have you given up in order to move forward in the direction of your dreams."  Know that I am with you every step of the way as you are in my journey.
