Remember me?

 

Hi!  Remember me?

It's been a long time...I took an unexpected blog break.  We had such a nice holiday season.  I tried really hard to "stay in the moment" as much as possible.  These kids of mine are growing way too fast!  So I got off the computer, stopped painting, and just enjoyed the holidays.

Now everyone is back to school and I am in my typical New Year mode.  I love resolutions.  I love goals.  I am a fanatic list-maker, dreamer, and schemer.  I made three New Years resolutions:

1.  Get out of debt completely.  That means by this time next year I would like our family to be debt-free (with the exception of our home.)

2.  Drink a lot more water and start cutting back on sugar (I am seriously addicted to sugar!)

3.  I am at 50 sales in my Etsy shop.  My goal is to have 1000 items sold this year.  I know that sounds pretty extreme, but I am working towards that.  I have a lot of new ideas that I will be implementing.

How about you?  Any new goals for 2009?

I'll be back tomorrow with some of my favorite art around the house...mostly done by fellow bloggers and etsy artists, a lot of it new!

Glad to have you back! I've been missing you! Did you get my email about the mosiac pots? Happy New Year! You inspired me to make some resolutions and set some goals. Thanks for that. Great picture of you and your fam.

I like the pic of the fam! Happy New Year! Great list of goals. I am with you on the drinking more water- and the sugar thing- but I did awful today :(

Good to see you and that cute family again! :) We plan on being out of debt this year too...except for house and student loans. :)
