2012 is here.
A new year.
A new beginning.
I told you about my resolutions here.
Now I want to share my dreams.
I have 2.
They may or may not come true.
They may, at the moment, seem unattainable.
(Gigantic deep breath.)
They are running my own business and
working from home.
(There. I've said it out loud for the first time ever.)
At my age the thought of
going out of my comfort zone
and trying something new may seem crazy.
Life throws a lot of curve balls.
Anything could happen...right?
Life throws a lot of curve balls.
Anything could happen...right?
One thing I do know is this...
I'll never know unless I try.
So...my theme for 2012 is
I talked about faith here.
We all need it.
It's like the air we breathe.
I can't imagine life without it.
I have a feeling my staircase is long and winding....with a few
sharp turns thrown in for good measure.
I've already made it past the first step.
I've just got to keep climbing.
Wishing you all a peaceful and prosperous new year.

Ann,
This is a marvelous resolution! I think you should definitely do it because you are so talented. I predict your products will sell, sell, sell! And you'll be doing something that you obviously enjoy! Happy New Year!
Yes Keep the Faith!!! You are a very talented lady, no reason why your dreams can't come true!!! I will be praying for you!! Happy New Year!!
I loved this post because it is very similar to my own creative and financial dreams (although they just don't seem achievable right now.) Wishing you much success and happiness as you strive for your goals, and in 2012. Happy New Year.
Wishing you continued success in 2012! I can totally relate to your dream.
Ann, i hope your dream comes true for you. When we stop dreaming of what if's we stop living.
I feel your resolve and know you can do it.
I fulfilled that dream about 28 yrs ago, when my youngest began kindergarten. I began designing and sewing clothing for 12 children. The business evolved into selling supplies for smocked, heirloom clothing and other techniques of sewing for children. My business lasted for 16 yrs when most of my customers were cutting back on the imported laces and fabrics. I made so many new friends and learned so much about running a business. It was truly a wonderful experience.
I know that you will do well and prosper.

Keep the faith, Ann. I know you can do this. Go ahead and make your dreams come true. I have faith in you.
You've said it out loud - good for you! It's a great goal to work toward and you are well on your way.
Wonderful Post Ann! Keep the Faith...I always dreamed of having my own little business. As I get older I wonder if that will ever happen. As for you...I know you will have continued success at what you do. Best wishes for a Blessed new year in 2012 to you.
Go for it, Ann!
I stayed home and raised my children, and then at an age when most women were winding down, I started my own business - I do what I love, on my own terms. You can do it!
Go for it Ann. George Eliot said "It's never to late to be who you might have been".
Good Luck and much success to you in 2012.

Hi Ann,
Good for you!
I wish you continued success & that 2012 will be everything you that you wish for...
All the Best,
Christine
I wish you all the best and tons of success! Go for it.
Good Luck to you, Ann! I know how scary it is to take that first big step....what if you fail...or...what if you succeed? Sometimes the fear of success scares us, too. I am keeping the faith that YOU CAN DO THIS...and we will all be here to bolster you along the way- Happy New Year- Happy Dreams! xo Diana
I can't wait to see how you prosper in 2012 because I have absolute faith that you will. :) I'm seriously getting all tingly for all my bloggy friends,....and I definitely consider you in that small group,....we are all going to absolutely rock 2012. Let's get started.
If anyone can do it-you can :-)
I wish you the most success possible with your future business. I know that takes courage to say it outloud like that because that probably makes you feel committed now. I'm sure that if this is what you want, you will make it work and if it is meant to be, it will be successful. I'm looking forward to following you on this journey too.
You are very talented and I know you can do it!
You can do it, Ann!!! Go for it. I believe in you!
Happy New Year and big hugs,
Cindy
Happy New Year Ann. I hope you get your wish this year! I feel optimistic for you. Here's to your dreams coming true!
Ann, I have faith that you can do whatever you set out to do. You are a hard working determined woman blessed with many talents. I have complete confidence that you will be a big success. You go girl!!------ Shannon
Sound like an exciting time, Ann. Wishing you all the best in 2012 and in your new "adventure".
Great post AND resolution, Ann!! Happiest of new years to you and yours! blessings ~ tanna
With your talent, I have no doubt that you could achieve your goal of running your own business from home. Good luck!
You can do it! Best wishes for 2012!

Happy new year, Ann. You are smart to realize life can definitely throw curve balls when you least expect it...so, follow your dreams and good luck in any new endeavor you want to pursue. Best, Judy
Hi Ann, you inspired me to choose 3 words to live by this year, I shared yours and gave a link back, I hope you don't mind! :))
So inspiring and so much dynamite packed into those 3 little words! I know you can do anything you put your mind to! Much luck to you! Drop by for a visit real soon...Gift-away going on!!!
Ann, Best of luck with following your dream. The things we do not try to accomplish are our biggest regrets.
Hugs,
Sherry
Hi Ann. I just found your blog tonight and really like your style. I'm a big Sarah Richardson fan, too! Tonight I am on the web looking for some inspiration - having peeled 45 year old wallpaper off my kitchen walls this evening.
Best wishes to you in 2012! (I'm an Ohioan as well!)

You can do it! You are such a sweet and talented lady and bring so much encouragement to blog land! I'll be praying for you as you march along your path! Hope you have a grand day! Toodles, Kathryn @TheDedicatedHouse
