Revisions, and ready to roll!


There are less than 3 hours left in 2009. Every year I go through this, and each year I make it a little further, so here's to getting even more accomplished in 2010.

I'm revising my resolutions, because with house work, I'm going to follow Flylady, and for health/weight loss I'm using Sparkpeople, so I'm just putting those as their own resolutions. Anything that falls under those will be gone, and then I'll have my list, here it goes:

1)Follow Flylady
2)Follow Sparkpeople
3)Blog daily
4)Read Bible daily
5)Find a devotion to read daily
6)Read for fun daily
7)Write for at least 15 min a day (make a blog for this purpose?)
8)Crochet or knit daily
9)Visit Grandma once a month
10)Visit my dad once a month
11)Call mom at least once a month
12)Dresses only as often as possible
13)Do something with Beth daily (Try-It's, craft, etc.)
14)Go to church as often as possible

Ok, I'm ready! Bring on 2010!

Intro



So, here I go starting another blog. I do plan to really try and post often on this one. I have an issue where I can come up with all these great blogs in my head, while driving, showering, or doing whatever. But when I sit at the computer to write it, I forget it all. Usually cause I felt that I had to wait till the end of the night to post. I plan to post ASAP when I come up with an idea or when something happens, the only time this will be a problem will be if I'm not at home.

Currently I'm sitting in the midst of an filthy, cluttered house, with a sick little girl, waiting to get sick myself. I also have to make a ton of dish cloths, a shawl, and hard candy for teacher gifts. I have errands to run too, but that won't happen till possibly Monday. I want to take a nap, cause I took a Benadryl today (forgot to take my Allegra). And what am I doing instead? Playing online.

I did scrub out the bathtub today, Beth puked in it last night, Steve got the main stuff out last night, and I scrubbed it out today, which it had needed before the puke anyway, so it was actually helpful.

I plan to use this blog for lots of things, keeping track of what I need to do, and what I do, to vent and bitch about things, and to generally share about my life.

Well, I'm off to make another dish cloth and watch some tv, I'm really hoping I don't get sick like Beth, but I'm honestly not feeling that great, so I think I caught it too. Great.
