One of my Facebook friends is starting a photo-a-day for 2011. Although she doesn't think her life is all that interesting [her opinion, not ours :-)] she is using this exercise as a means of finding beauty in the everyday and mundane. What a great idea.
I wonder, if we all did that, if at the end of the year we could look back and remember how we were and where we were when that photo was taken. I wonder if one day we took a photo of the mundane only to find that the next day our photo is of something completely unexpected.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that 2010 for me was a year to remember. And while it may have started out 'everyday and mundane' it certainly picked up speed along the way and ended just as surprisingly.
I remember that night in March when Rob came home and told me that he'd been offered the job at Reef Pilots and that he had accepted. I felt that my world had come crumbling down. Everything as I knew it was about to change ..... and I was scared - very very scared.
And then I remember missing him, missing him badly and wondering "what am I doing down here while he's up there - we want to be together, so why aren't we?". And I remember the weekend I went up for look-see and deciding that yes, I can do this, I can live here.
And .... well, you know the rest - you've read the blog :-)
