Ringing in the new year...alone by choice is my latest personal test. Can I be alone when I have a choice and learn to enjoy the down time?
Surprising enough, I didn't break down into tears or think derogatory statements of my life predicament!
Actually I was a pretty cool date for ME...I bought myself a steak, fresh asparagus, avocado slices, pink roses, chocolate cheesecake with fresh blackberries and Very Vanilla ice cream. Not only did I buy it, I also cooked and served it up in my cutest pink nightie while watching whatever ME wanted to watch on TV.
Why I even gave ME a cute teddy bear with the year 2007 on his foot to help me physically hold on to the old year as the new year was born.
Seems a bit drastic and of course silly but surprising ME most of all, my night was stress free and calming...I felt at peace with the situation.
Even now, I'm running a hot bubble bath for ME with a scented candle on the edge of the tub. I'll soak, ten toes above the water line and remember fondly the year that has passed.
Tomorrow I'll tackle those New Year's Resolutions with ME...it ought to be interesting!
Happy New Year, Cookie
