It's New Year's Eve here in Australia, and 2009 is drawing to a close...This would have to be one of my favourite times of the year for parties, celebrations, being with friends, and reflection. This year [new years eve] is a little different as I am the designated driver, being nearly 6 months pregnant there is no getting out of this job! But on the up & up at least I won't have that nasty headache from too many champagne bubbles as years gone by!
Here are a couple of images I found & love - they seem to perfectly reflect how I am feeling about this upcoming new year -

To Live in the Moment, To Do it Now (less procrastination), Pay It Forward , Be [more content] Happy - with Myself & for What I Have.

I suppose this year feels somewhat especially reflective, withwhat seems the smell of change in the air, as my husband & my life will become dramatically different come Early May when our little addition arrives into our lives!
So where ever you are this evening have fun, stay safe, if you drink then don't drive, & here's a BIG Happy New Year to You for a wonderful 2010! I can't wait to share more with you in 2010 at Palatial Living! Take Care. S xxx

Looks like there's a change in the wind...
Congratulations to the triumph New Zealand Maxi 'Alfa Romeo', 2009 winner of the '65th Annual Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race'. Beating 'Wild Oates' who was close line chasing a record 5th consecutive line honours win... narrowing the margin on the last day from 32 nautical miles to only 11 nautical miles. Wow - it was a breath taking race, with near to perfect conditions and what would seem to be only casualties of pride...
For more details on the race & win, visit SMH.com.au
