Birthday Thanks and Wishes

It kinda crept up on me, but it’s my birthday!  It has certainly been quite a year!  To think I celebrated my birthday in France two years ago, in London last year, and in Singapore this year (which I should theoretically remain in for a while).  My birthday has always been around (sometimes on) Thanksgiving.  I thought it would be nice to reflect on what I’m thankful for and put down a few wishes as well.

I’m thankful for…
…love and support of friends and family (in real life and online!) 
…my ability to travel.  My husband and I are in an amazing new section of the world and there’s so much to explore!
…living chic ‘n cheap but still saving and staying within our means.  Sure I’ve been on a Hermès scarf spree lately.  But I’m still practical and not buying Birkins left and right.  Someday, I’ll show you the full Hermès collection though 😉
…Skype and IDD (international direct dial) minutes from my phone.  It’s awesome to seamlessly communicate with my family with these free/very low cost services.
…good health of my parents.  I’ve seen sickness and loss this year and wish I was closer to my parents but at least they’re doing well.

I’m wishing for (or material stuff that actually corresponds to the stuff that matters)…
…more decor for our home which actually means we’re settling here for a bit!  I also see myself buying a few more things from Amazon and CSN as we stock our kitchen as well.  This platter was from my wish list for the Blogger Holiday Gift Guide 2010!  

…a sweet outlook.  That and I ♡ caramel though I don’t have a sweet tooth.

 …light or clarity in my next steps here.  Will I really start a new business?  Or will I enter a new field or go back to the old one?  I wish this was clear!

…motivation when the future is uncertain, perhaps helped by this invigorating tea?

…a bright, pink, fashionable year – perhaps in the area of fashion or at least this will be the new dress I can wear when I enter my new field (err maybe with a black cardigan)!

If anyone would like to trade birthday wishes with me (or just a random message), send me an e-mail at cncliving {@}gmail.com!  I’ll let you know my mailing address and send you a card from Asia too!  I have so much great stationary here!
