As we bid farewell to 2014 Mr. C and I are also sorting through and shredding many years of tax records. We had boxes back to 1991 for his company that we decided was time to eliminate from long term storage. Many many hours of sorting and recycling and shredding our space feels lighter now. You can only imagine in this world of "identity theft" threats we had to honestly read every piece of paper to be certain there was nothing easily found like social security numbers for us and former employees. Our eyes were crossed as we plowed through box after box after box. Whew!
Now we can begin a brand new year fresh and clean. It feels good.
2014 was an interesting year and we were able to fulfil our travel desires. I still have yet to share parts of our amazing trip we took. We were able to enjoy family and friends throughout the year too.
As 2015 quickly approaches I am looking forward to somehow slowing down the daily weekly monthly frantic pace and enjoying more of the daily journey we are on. However, our calendar is already pretty full for each month and I am hoping to keep some blank spaces just for watching the clouds overhead or the leaves sprouting green on bare branches or ...well you know what I am saying. I truly hope each and every one of you wonderful blog friends have a safe and perfect celebration to ring in the New Year. I am so grateful for all of you and this blog community we share that I know I will continue my blog and hope to share inspiration as well as Creative Bliss. I will be reassessing what I wish to accomplish this 2015. My annual word has not found me as of yet however I feel like one word might not be appropriate for me this new year. I feel like my journey might require a compilation of my previous words in order for me to actually get on track with what makes me the most satisfied and happiest. I shall be pondering this for another while.
Blessings with Peace and Joy and Love and Health for all of 2015...
Happy New Year to you and your family, you are a constant inspiration for me,

Sorting through anything is time consuming which is why I've done little organizing over the winter break. Good for you getting rid of all those unnecessary papers. Wishing you all the best for the coming year. Tammy
ReplyDeleteLots of pondering going on here as well. I know it feels good to have all those papers shredded and destroyed, not having to look at them any more.

Happy New Year. Hope 2015 brings you all that you have asked for and wished for. Decluttering is a task we all have to take some time. I am looking forward to doing so myself. I have so much stuff to clean out in my craft room though. The rest of my home is pretty much cleaned out. I am pretty good on keeping up with that. I plan on doing some destashing some of my crafty things. I have way more than I want to have.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to your blog post during the year.
Crafty hugs, Ana
Happy New Year, Sherry, to you and Mr. C.! Wishing you a year filled with good health, happiness, and much creativity!
