Last year the 20th thing I learned was go ahead and do it -- This year, 5,4,3,2,1

Super day today.  Amazing how different life is when you get over
having whatever we had -- cold/flu/nasty.  We are well.  And
everything seems celebratory.  At the same time -- we want to
celebrate Yule, and the New Year and see friends and relatives,
so we can't sit around twiddling our thumbs.

A new go ahead and do it trick I learned the other day seems
insanely simple, but I've got quite a bit done since I started it.
You get an idea -- count 5,4,3,2, 1 and do whatever it is that
inspired you.

Maybe that's why we had so much fun holiday shopping today
(don't worry our family doesn't do excess). But we needed
lights, and a couple of gifts, and holiday crackers for whatever
meals we'll share with family and friends. Done. 5,4,3,2, 1!

I love this painting, and it is available. It is an abstract
appreciation of life by the ocean.

Have a loving your life day!
