My friend Mary asked me how it felt to have “Everyday Like Sunday” back. First off I was surprised, happily, that I had readers who actually remembered things I wrote, and forgot all about how I started this blog in the first place. I was laid off from my job of five years. I decided to take my writing more seriously, and I made a commitment to writing a blog everyday about my explorations as an unemployed woman. Everyday is Like Sunday was about really enjoying life, and treasuring everyday. Flash forward three years later and I have been laid off from my day job again two weeks ago, but this time I haven’t even had a moment to take a breath. I’ve been so busy with the holidays, graduate school applications, social events, and enjoying the day to day, that today is my first real day to sit back and get back on track. So dear readers…Everyday is Like Sunday…Again.
It’s a New Year and with that comes resolutions that we all make…or the few of us that resolve to make no resolutions it brings more of the same. I have a few resolutions this year, but one is to write Everyday. I usually do..but I fall off track and ignore my blog. Which is something I have enjoyed writing for the past couple of years. I promise to get back on track with my blog, and keep climbing the ladder of success in my writing. Today my body has cried out and is taking advantage of having nothing to do. I have an awesome head cold, and will spend the day inside my apartment. I can’t remember the last time I spent an entire day inside my apartment relaxing.
Thanks for reading! Tomorrow I will share my 365 days of reflection–an art project I created for myself this week. It’s almost done, and boy was 2011 a productive year. I’m super excited to see what 2012 brings.
Have a great day!
Amye
