Farewell to 2010
Dear 2010,
You were a year of risk-taking. While 2009 can claim life-altering events like our move to Texas, buying our first house, and getting our first puppy, you were a rather ho-hum year, which was the perfect time to take a few leaps of faith.
First, I got a sewing machine and taught myself how to make some stuff. I made my first baby hats (with little ears) and got addicted to the taste of triumph!
Then I held my breath and jumped in with both feet: I opened my etsy shop and turned my card-making hobby into something with some potential for profit!
Oh yeah, and the blog. You were a big year for me in terms of connecting with others and joining the crafting and blogging community at large!
And let's not forget that novel I finally started writing. I pick away at it just a bit at a time, but I'm gonna get there!
I'm glad you were here, 2010. I'm especially glad I ignored all of those inside voices that said I couldn't do it, that I wasn't good enough, and who did I think I was?
So now I can finish off the year feeling proud of myself and my "big" risks. Thanks, 2010. You've been great!
