The Last Day

of what has been a crazy year.... fraught with peril and un-employment and financial instability.

I'm optimistic about Twenty Oh Six... I'm settling in to a great job as a chef and loving it... I'm still writing, and doing art, and being me, but there are things left to be created in the coming year.... like a safe home where I can indeed spread out and feel comfortable everyday. I will find a perfect studio space that leaves room for living as well.... and still be able to walk to work. They say if you put it out there...

I'm always a little quiet and reflective on the eve of a new year. I don't make resolutions, but I do think back as to think more clearly in the future. Even though I don't live for tomorrow, I do hope it comes.

I'll be working tonight while the rest of the world celebrates..... It's a good thing and I am greatful for the opportunity I have been given to remove the rust from my skills and learn some new things as well.
