Wow, What a Year

Posted on 03 March 2010 by Chavah Kinloch

We’re only 3 months into the year, barely that, and so much has happened already. It really makes a person sit and think about things.  I went to bed last night, still anxious but overwhelmingly happy. I felt good feelings and let them consume me. I focused on the positive and shoved the niggling little negatives that were trying to consume me to the side. I decided to fight the nerves and just get on with it! That’s all I can do right? I also spent a few hours lying there amazed at just how lucky I am to have so many people supporting me. It was really nice to hear from you all.

As I lay down it dawned on me that I’d been picked from over 350 other people to take part in a task that’s a little strange but nonetheless a really amazing opportunity. Remember my theme word for the year? Brave. I knew I’d need it. Now’s the time. Hopefully one of many more to come.

Today was my last quiet day for a little while. I’m still sick so I’ve used the terrible weather as an excuse to stall all the little things I have to do and stay home where it’s warm until tomorrow. My day consisted of lots of phone calls with the gallery manager, fiddling around trying to fix files, last minute emails to ensure all details were correct for hanging day tomorrow, a fussy baby (dang), oinking like a pig for hours on end because I found that it makes my baby throw his head back in laughter which stopped the fussing and in turn made me crack up because it was so cute, a little bit of laundry, incredibly irritable children – I blame the weather, practicing pronouncing the letter P (speech therapy for a little man of mine), an over the phone newspaper interview, stories from the kids, homework and Chinese food for dinner for us and a friend that spent the evening hanging out.

Tomorrow is hanging day at the gallery which I’m actually looking forward to. I cannot wait to see the gallery when it’s done! The gallery manager has picked up organising the drinks and nibbles for me so all I have to do is arrive a little earlier to help set up on Friday night and we’re good to go! I am SO happy this show has come together without any hiccups, lets hope opening night goes well and the sales roll in for all our artists.

Sunday is one of my little guys birthday. He’s turning four and is VERY excited. We’re just having a quiet dinner at home (maybe we’ll head out, still thinking about it). Then we all know what happens next week starting Monday… I hope you’re ready! Ok no, I hope I’M ready hehe.

So here’s to embracing new opportunities and pushing past our fears. The future is a bright place and life an amazing journey with lessons to be learned around every corner. I’m glad I’m around to welcome them.
