With a toddler in tow and a thriving business, it’s easy to find ourselves glossy-eyed by 9:00 PM when the house is finally still. And yet, this is our daily “couple time.” I have been hungry for some “adventure” (my 2011 “Word for the Year“) […]

Katie — “vacation” is a super word, especially when you consider that most Americans don’t use up all of their vacation days in a given year. I guess we think it’s either more promotion-worthy to leave days on the table or selfish to take time for ourselves. Kudos to you for showcasing the example that vacations are not only fun but very important to a well-balanced life!

As a coach people expect something like “Intentionality” “Mindfulness” or something of the like…but when I sat and thought about it I came up with “Vacation.” I want to work hard yet also experience and celebrate that work with the balance of PLAYING and being with my family!
My intention for vacation has been rockin’ so far!
Camping on a mountain for New Years, visiting friends at their slopeside condo and visiting friends who were house-sitting for an “on the water oh my god kind of place” It has been a great reminder that we can go on vacationsand also…simply live as if life is a vacation…And way more relaxing than 2009 already!
great post. (losing 90 pounds would be a bit much for me….though I would take an even 5)

Why thank you for the awesome comment, Colleen and for hanging out with us here! By the way, Calvin & Hobbes is one of my favorites, too!

It really is amazing how powerful simply “claiming” a word for the year is, isn’t it? I’ve noticed very similar benefits. It’s kind of like built in momentum that comes when you do it.

Here! You guys rock and are a breath of fresh air! It is time to have fun and enjoy this thing we call life. Your video is great, your comic reminds me of Calvin and Hobbes and I loved C&H. Great job!
My word for the year is Connection and as soon as I “claimed” my word the connections started rolling in. Life is so fun! Thanks for adding to it with your blog and presence on the internet!

Great word, Peter. Vigilant. I like it.

“Profundity”…there’s a word one doesn’t see every day! :-)

When heated up, marshmallows can ooze too… :-)

Sure beats choking to death on a marshmallow!

See, sometimes silliness leads to great profundity!

I usually think of the word as something slimy oozing out of somewhere (such as the pus after I popped the bubbles on my shoulders that came from a rather serious sunburn when I was little [Oh, were you eating? Sorry about that.]). However, I just realized…that word applies to more than just slime. You can ooze confidence, for example. It implies an intense passion for something. Maybe that will be my word for the year, all joking aside. The more I think about it, the more I like it! Must ponder what else I can ooze to make the world a better place.
