Resoulutions


 
So do you do these?  I always try to come up with at least a couple.... I have given up on the lose weight, eat healthy, exercise....blah, blah,  blah.  I am still conscious of these, but the diet goals in January are just too routine.  Instead, I try to come up with something fun and that fills me up creatively, emotionally, etc.
 
Last year it was blogging, developing a more fun personal style, becoming more comfortable in my own skin.  I think I have met those for the most part.  I am still working on the last one and I will continue on in the new year. 
 
This year's Resolutions are:
 
Make an updated change in my house at least once per month.  Decorating, home improvement, organization, etc.
 
Do a photo challenge that my friend Carla is putting together and learn to take better pictures.
 
Refresh my sign language and teach sign to L.
 
Learn some of the group dances that people do at weddings, etc. I love to dance, but do not even know the Electric Slide.  I think it is  a fear of looking stupid, uncoordinated, and messing up  in front of a group of people.  K is going to start teaching me over break.
 
This summer I am going to take golf lessons.  I have owned my own golf clubs for years. I use to go to the driving range, but have never learned how to play the actual game. 
 
Start a saving plan for money and reduce my excess spending....ugghh, so not fun :(  However, I am committed to it.  I may coupon again as well.  I am going to do it in a more understated way this time to avoid the overwhelming state I got myself into last time. My number one change is to start taking my lunch to work.

Daybook....

Good Morning, I am linking up with  The Simple Woman's Blog  for the weekly Daybook For today... February 9, 2015 Outside my window .... Chilly (in the 30's for a high) but no snow.  Most of the snow has melted from the warm temps this weekend. I am thinking ... that I had a great, great weekend with my family. I am thankful. .. that my children view each other as important.  We had to plan Lucy's birthday celebration around Katie's work hours because she just started her new job and can't request time off.  Lucy would have never considered celebrating her birthday without her big sis present. I am wearing. .. my sparkly sweater again.  I must need the sparkles to handle a Monday morning. I am creating ... nothing at the moment, but do have some unfinished projects.  My mind has been exhausted lately and I am just chilling and puttering around. I am praying ... for a family decision that could make a huge difference in our live...

It's OK

Time for some grumbling, snarkiness, and maybe a little bad attitude... So who came up with flowered scented dish soap?  Someone who drinks perfume?  This is just so gross. Really. Why must the good foods be fattening?  Why is Coca Cola bad for your weight, health, teeth,etc. but so good for your mood?  I would say that it is just me but the fact it is a billion dollar industry would contradict that, just sayin. Why did God not give me the love of cooking to match my love of eating home cooked foods?   Where do all my socks go? Really, my house is not that big. Is it really necessary to get hot sweats at night?  Wouldn't society be better if the menopausal women at least were well rested?  I think I need a snickers, I am definitely in Diva mode today!! 

Your Favorite Christmas Tradition

  We have developed many traditions for our family over the years.  We always open one present on Christmas Eve, we have Grinch Punch on Christmas Eve, we lay out cookies and a beer for Santa (this has been since my childhood), sprinkle oatmeal in the yard for the reindeer, have sparkling grape juice and chocolate eclairs on Christmas morning, and we go see a movie as a family on Christmas afternoon at the movie theater.   Leading up to Christmas we have chocolate advent calendars, have fun with R.J. our Elf on the Shelf, go to the surrounding towns that have light displays on a  snowy evening, attend  the Santa breakfast in town, and enjoy the school's Christmas program.   We have many family dinners and get togethers to attend to wish everyone a wonderful holiday and spend quality time with the ones we love.    My favorite tradition?  Probably leaving cookies and beer for Santa.  I don't know how it started but...
