Tiger? Horse? What am I doing?

So here's it is...the end of 2009. Finally. It's been a long year and I'm ready to let it go and start anew.

2010 on the Chinese calendar is the year of the Tiger. It says The Tiger is said to be lucky vivid, lively and engaging. Another attribute of the Tiger is his incredible bravery, evidenced in his willingness to engage in battle or his undying courage. Maybe he’s so brave because he is so lucky. But the Chinese say having a Tiger in the house is the very best protection against the evils of fire, burglary.

Okay...so I guess I need some sort of tiger, because....

I was born in the year of the Horse. And those characteristics are: extemporaneus, quick-wittend, intelligent, their sharpness makes them quick to pick up skills and handle many tasks at one time, but they don't always finish what they start for fear of missing out on the next challenge. They are trustworty, friendly and open-minded, can struggle with obstinance :::what??:::, are good friends and confidants and will be honest with you. They can have a flare of a temper :::again, huh?!::: and fell remorse afterward. (definitely)

I have absolutely no idea why I looked all this up, but I did and because it's time in my life I'll never get back...I'm posting it.

But for now, I need to go get in the shower and get ready for New Year's Eve with family and friends. Sans tiger. Sans all my work being done. Sans cleaning the house. Sans so much... .

Tomorrow...a new year. Bring it on. Happy New Year to everyone with lots of love and appreciation to how you impacted my 2009.

XOXO, T
