Year In Review

God, what a year 2011 was... The short recap: Mom died, I started volunteering as a "host" at the LGBT Diversity Center, I learned to crochet socks, I started seeing a nutritionist regularly (but didn't actually lose any weight that stayed off, although I did start exercising more), I went to Toronto/Ontario, Oswald died, finally went to the Folsom Street Fair, bought a corset, went to Vancouver/Victoria/Seattle. Oh, and I spoke at the local RWA a few times about publishing and about writing sex scenes.

I saw my family way mroe than usual, which is not really a good thing. Oddly, I saw my friends way less, although two local people in particular (and maybe another four beyond that) really stepped up and comforted me when I needed them. I'm very blessed to have such good friends in my life.

The end of the year is somewhat shadowed with the anniversary of deaths and the heads-up that my marriage needs some work. Last year's plans got derailed less than seven days into the new year, but I'm not letting that stop me from making some plans for 2012...

Resolutions/goals:
- start belly dancing and yoga classes
- if it's not delicious and/or you're not actually hungry, don't eat it
- write 2 stories/novellas/novels to submit AKA write for 2 hours every morning 5 days a week
- reconnect with friends, both RL and fandom
- fix marriage
