Another year over, and a new one just begun….

So it’s already 2010. Second day in no less, and at 3pm I just rolled out of bed. Started the New Year by finishing Stephen King’s ‘Under the Dome’. Not a bad book.

This year is going to be a big one. After losing our baby back in October we are going to try again midway through the year. The original plan was to start trying as of Jan 1st, but then my brother asked me to go to the USA with him in May and I have decided to do it – if work will give me the time off. I’ve wanted to go there for many many years, to meet some of the wonderful online friends I have made through here, forums and good old Napster chat. It will be a fairly short trip – 2.5 weeks – and will probably only encompass three states, but I am hoping I can at least meet 3 or 4 people on my list!

I’ve also started up a business recently that will be kick starting quite strongly by the end of Jan I hope. I’ve ordered an Epson 11880 64″ printer and am stocking up canvas, poster and other printing mediums that I might find a way to sell. I’ll be doing markets, running an e-commerce site, and still working full time for the moment, it’s going to be busy. The hope is that by the end of the year I might be turning over enough work to leave my full time job, or at the minimum, make it part time. We shall see what we shall see though.

Ash and I are taking our first real trip away together since going to Brisbane in 2005, it’s only 4 days, and it’s only down the coast, but it will be an awesome trip I am hoping. It willa lso be a little warmup for leaving Amelia for 2.5 weeks to go stateside. If I can’t manage the 4 nights I may as well cancel the US trip now!

I need to go do something constructive with the day now… *yawn*
