Out With The Old, And In With The New


I don't know about you guys, but to me, 2008 went by incredibly fast. And, as challenging as it was, quite frankly, I'm glad to see it gone. I always feel so hopeful on the first day of a new year. It's like everything's all squeaky clean. I've been given a massive "do over". And, I fully intend to do what I can to make the best of it.


I'm not much of a resolution maker, but I guess you could say that's mine. To do the best I can. To try and move forward, and to work to my best potential to make things better. That promise may sound trivial to some, but believe me, that simple statement carries a LOT of weight behind it. I only hope I can strive to make good on that vow.


If you, yourself, make resolutions, I hope that, whatever they are, you'll work to YOUR best potential to make them come true. And, try not to beat yourself up about it if they don't come to fruition. Remember...there's always next year! :)


Happy New Year, everyone!

I ma like you..I don't really make resolutions..just see things that I can and should improve on. Good luck. One of your goals should be to move to Utah this year! HA HA! Have a good one!

Happy New Year!

I made "one" big general resolution for this year:

To smile more, and not gripe about the small things that frustrate me; to follow through on those closet cleaning projects that have been put off too long, and to take a moment to listen more to what my husband is saying, rather than what I am hearing.
