Happy New Year To You!

     Welcome to the new year!  So far, I have no complaints.  I've spent time with my extended family, ate good food, and even took roses to my mother in law for her birthday.  Yep, it's been a pretty good day tater.

      I've never been big on resolutions but I definitely make new goals each year.  I try to break them down into personal goals, career goals and financial goals.  Sounds ambitious, but really it's not.  This year, I'm also making a list of things to do.  A Bucket List for 2012, if you will.  Wanna see it?  Here goes......


  1. Read 24 *new* books.  (I tend to reread the ones I love)
  2. Be a better friend
  3. Make the new nephew a quilt
  4. Take the fam to Florida to see this new nephew
  5. Go on an adults only trip with The Hubby
  6. Quit Facebook
  7. Grow veggies in a garden
  8. Learn to can those veggies
  9. Set up a college fund for each of the kids
  10. Take a class.....in anything!
  11. Get the oldest in braces already
  12. Finish the Harry Potter series (reading & watching)
  13. Master this knitting thing
