This year I really want to take a step closer to something I have been thinking about for a long time.
Yes, I am going to try and move closer to the doing, as opposed to being stuck in the thinking!
I've always wanted to be a good gift giver. Ironic really, as I am generally the person who forgets everyone's birthday, and even if I remember, I somehow never quite get my act together in time to celebrate it. For a few years now I've wanted to change that. To not only remember and deliver on these special days, but make it special, by giving those I care about something which reflects how I feel about them. Whether it is something I've made, or something I have carefully chosen made by another; it's always a little more personal and special if that something is handmade and not just an off-the-shelf-last-minute-thought.
I've probably left it a bit late again this year, to start organising now (particularly for the family in Australia), but I'm going to do my best.
