Happy new year!
Waow 2010, it looks different, it feels different and if I think about it long enough, the mystery it holds make water spring in my mouth as though I had just tasted something citrus...............
I had the best "old year's night" that I could ever have asked for.
I spent it in the company of my daughter, her partner and their baby girl.
That was the most relaxing, cleansing, spiritual and liberating evening ever.
Each year I would go though the whole 'getting ready' ritual thing by doing all the domestic things so my house feels ready for a new start. This year I was more on top of it than ever. Administration was all done, no clothes left to iron, our closet looked like a shop hahaha love that! Everywhere was as I wanted it to be in our space. The only thing left was to set a bath with lovely scents, I have a new flavour, 'lavender tea tree geranium' by L'Occitane! mmmmm talk about relaxing, anyway That form of cleansing was not to be tonight. I was about to experience a special bath of the mind and soul with my daughter!
I hadn't planned to spend the night at my daughter's but my husband came up with the idea, he so enjoys his sons-in-law, he calls each one 'his favourite son-in-law' soooo cute!
Having gone to bed at 2:15 this morning, I woke by myself minuets before six, I knew that because I woke and whilst lying there thinking "man I woke up and it's still dark......I wonder what time it was" then I heard the house clock strike 6:00am.
I tried falling back to sleep and realize I couldn't.
Now we all know just how creative and sharp our minds are at that time in the morning, when only YOU are awake. My mind began reflecting as I tried to make clear what I had dreamt about.
I won't relate the dream but it triggered my tread of thought for a while, trying to dismiss the I thoughts I reflected on being at my daughter's place.......I wished I could have stayed in bed and scribble all I was thinking done without 'getting up!!'
I created an entire page in my blog lying right there; at 7:00ish I got up went to the loo, and turned on the computer.
I had not been in this space since for ages!!
I was energize by my baby girl last night! I wanted to save those feelings.
I haven't been blogging for sooo many reasons and blogging for the sake of it was just not me.
Now I am back.....I am sitting here thinking it's all too much to put into words....now....right now.
Considering my guy is in our bed, asleep and I am behind the computer.....mmmmmmm something doesn't compute I know.
But last night, the end of 2009 was magic for me 'for us' as I fell asleep wrapped in his arms, in our freshly made bed, feeling very secure as we affirmed just how strong our loves is, I felt blessed, loved and extremely fortunate that this man loves ME as he does, that I have lived long enough to experience my children as adults and be able to love and appreciated each of them individually, to be able to to share the difference and the likeness of my baby girl, with her in it's pureness, honesty, genuineness and unshielded way we did.
I had the best "old year's night" ever.
I will talk more about this later, maybe....yes I will! I think..........
Anyway it's still dark soo I am going to sneak back in bed to grab a last cuddle before my sweetheart wakes up.......I just wanted to make a start whist I was ready to start blogging this year.
Thank you God for a loving family!
2010 is off on a great start!
