New Years Resolution

Hi Family and Friends

It's a little late to post New Years Resolutions, but I did make this one on January 1.

Well, here goes.  This resolution has several parts to it, so bare with me here for a minute.

As most of you know, I do not post on my blog often enough, I resolve to change that this year and to find more interesting things to add to the blog.  An example is my "Quote of the Day" on the left hand side of the the blog.  Of course, the blog will never be as interesting as Facebook, but I do hope you join me now and then during the year.

I also have a daily journal (still not that interesting), mostly because all I record is the weather of the day, birthdays and anniversaries.  Very boring, right?  Well I resolve to change that also by adding more information about each day, the things I do and the people I meet and of course, my new friend, Maggy.  Now this journal will not be made public, so you can't check on whether I am keeping this resolution, but I will keep you updated during the year on how I am getting along.  This will help me keep my resolution to blog more, isn't that a good start?

During my 61+ years, I have had many "hobbies" which included, crochet, knitting, quilting and for the past several years, scrapbooking.  I LOVE SCRAPBOOKING. And as usual, I don't put as much work into that hobby as I should be, so hence, the last part of my resoluion is to take more pictures, buy more paper and other stuff, yeh !, and "create " more scrapbook pages, mini books, digital pages, junk journals and smash books.  I will explain the last two items later, if you're interested of course, LOL.

Now lets say, if I get out of hand and fall back into my old habits of not posting at least 4 days out of 7, you have my permission to email me and give me a little shake (not a big shake, remember I am 61+) and say "hey old woman, get your backside in gear and post something interesting".  That's all you have to do or you can email be at anytime, whether I am good or bad.

Thanks for listening, I think that's what blogs are for too, LOL

PS: Some interesting information related to yesterday, February 2.  Our Grandpa Jack,  Mom's father, used to celebrate his birthday on that day.  He was born Feburary 2, 1886 -  126 years ago
