2015....Another year and more resolutions to make. Each year most people set out on the eve of the New Year and think about what they'd like to accomplish for the upcoming new year. We set goals for ourselves to get healthier, manage our money better or promise ourselves that we'll take a walk on the wild side...just once. We all start off with the best of intentions but a lot of us just never quite make it to our destination of where or what we wanted to be. My past resolution failures and successes have included: *Getting healthy and fit....FAIL. Make that a big FAT (no pun intended) FAIL too because I just couldn't seem to resist Hubby's cookies, cakes, pies, cinnamon rolls and I've come to the realization that I'll probably never be able to resist them. *Grow long fingernails....I'd count this one as a 1/2 Fail. I know this is a silly resolution to make but I love all the pics that other women post of their beautifully polished and manicured nails and decided I wanted pretty nails too. I did try it but I didn't like it after all. I wish I had a dollar for every time one of those "beautifully polished" nails got caught on the inside of the washing machine when I'd be pulling out the clothes to put into the dryer...or doing my spring planting and seeing them ruined in just one "potting session". So now, I keep'em semi~ short and sweet and all is well with the world again. :) *Get organized...another half and half...This is still a work in progress. My living room stays pretty clean so no worries there. But I did get all my bathroom cabinets organized and was quite impressed that they actually stayed that way. No more messy drawers or linen closet...YAY!! The kitchen isn't my "domain", that's Hubby's area, so I ain't touching that one! However my bedroom is another story entirely. It has been the "storage" room for all my Christmas decor containers and that room totally grates on my last nerve... So yeah, this one I'm still working on. This year I'll get this tackled and completed! Hopefully. *Do something fun and exciting...this one is also a half and half fail/succeed. I started this blog which for me was and is fun and exciting but on the other hand, it's kind of a fail too because I didn't do anything "out of the house" fun and exciting, such as sky diving, learn to snorkel, ride a dolphin in the ocean... Not that I want to do any of those but you get my drift. Well, except the dolphin, that would have been cool. *Do something different, totally NOT me....(ummm...see above) Anyway, enough ramblin'. I guess what I'm really meaning to say is, this year for me, there will be no New Year resolutions. I'm just going to do what I want, eat what I want, keep working on the things I need to work on personally and just "go with the flow." Instead of resolutions, just be you. Your own beautiful self. Trust me, it will be enough ღ Be good and be pretty and as always... ✻ღϠ₡ღ✻ God Bless ✻ღϠ₡ღ✻ |
