Not long ago, I posted a Facebook status saying, "I need something to look forward to." Not too many days later, I read that the last week of January is statistically the time of year when people are most prone to depression.
It makes perfect sense. The festivity of the holidays is over (though I do have to urge those of you who have not taken your decorations down to GET TO IT ALREADY!! haha); the newness of 2010 has worn off (perhaps along with the determination to work on our resolutions); the weather is cold and bleak (depending on where you live); and the days are short and dark (maybe, like mine, your commute occurs before sunrise and after dusk).Well, people, it's FEBRUARY!!! Not only did we make it through January, it's a new month, starting with a Monday. Time for another fresh start and a renewed outlook, if ever there was one.
So I'm focusing on now, and I'm looking forward to brighter days to come. Here's what has got me smiling:
1. Good TV.
3. Reaching personal goals.
So happy February, everyone! The best is yet to come!

Love this! You are so inspiring, Beth.

I'm glad you're back on your blog - I was worried about you!

How about Valentine's Day and Ground Hog Day? This is very cool and I think your little Colts horseshoe necklace is adorable.
