resolute.

it is new year's eve...
and i am full of resolutions,
plans, goals, lists and expectations
for 2008.

to break it down...

me:
-take more pictures, mess with the camera more, experiment...
-create more/make more/write more/imagine more
-really try to aim towards next year's craft fair at christmas...start now.
-healthier-drink more water/less pop---NO DIET...no aspartame.
-walk more even though i now have a license...hahaha.
-write real letters.

family:
-spend more time with S doing things that we like...fun things
-quality time with kids...sledding, game nights, etc

home:
-get bills under control
-get S's business rolling...game plan with goals and follow through
-decide what we eventually want to do with each of the rooms not yet
done in our house...floorplan, decide, list what we need and budget...
-get house painted

work:
-learn more about simply accounting

i know this seems like a lot...but we'll see...
i love new year's...
happy new year's to you!

note of interest...

my daughter...
12
has just created her own blog...

she's all rock and roll and
eighties even though she was born
in the nineties...
she likes computer stuff and
to learn photoshop...
she's funny and smart and witty and cool...

i suggested the nickname onionhead
but she didn't buy into it...
she goes by canadianrockergirl
but i call her my l'il geekgirl...
go say hi.

fa-lalalala-lala-la

it is a better day...
our son's christmas concert was last night
and 12 could have gone to a school dance
but chose to come with us instead
and it was fun.

chinese food followed.

and when we got home,
my husband totally surprised me
with a dvd of my absolute most favorite christmas special
which i could not find being listed on any station this year...
the muppet family christmas!
i seriously freaked out.
:0)

and this morning, in the spirit of december views
(which i had kinda fallen off the wagon for but am back on!)
hobbes gave me this picture perfect photo op...

hope your day is a better day, too!
