Happy New Year!

My new year's resolution for 2011: to regain my Muchness. The past year has been one of endurance... how long can I go without sleep, how far can I stretch a dollar, how many wounds can I heal, how many tears can I dry, how many people's jobs can I do? The answer to all of this is a resounding VERY! I am impressively good at making due. My Calvinist ancestors would be proud. All the same, my train passed the run-down towns of Drained and Exhausted several stops ago, and Whimsy and Lightheartedness are the stuff of fairy tales, barely remembered. There used to be more... "Muchness"... to me (swiped from Alice in Wonderland.) This year, I want to find my Muchness, even if I have to be significantly less impressively competent to do it.
