HAPPY NEW YEAR!
I don't make any real resolutions. I feel like I would just be setting myself up for failure and I don't need the pressure. I do like "to do" lists though.
MY 2011 To Do List
1. Organize - I'm a pretty neat person by nature but there are certain areas in my home that need some attention. My closet, the pantry, the laundry room, the playroom and my "crafty" space.
2. Healthier kitchen - We don't eat a lot of junk food and over the past year or so I've cut out a lot of the processed stuff we used to rely on. There are still improvements to be made though. Also, I have shelves of cookbooks that I need to crack open and actually use.
3. Slow down and enjoy more - This could be the thing that is the most challenging. I have a tendency to get so wrapped up in what's keeping me busy that I forget to stop and actually enjoy the moment.
4. Read more - I love to read. I love books. I am a self proclaimed "book nerd" and proud of it. I don't have the time to do it much anymore. I must make the time. I buy books, put them on the shelf and there they sit.
5. Simplify - So far I have cancelled magazine subscriptions, weeded out the Christmas items that I didn't need/want anymore and reduced the "decor" items in my house. I have a feeling I will be making lots of trips to Goodwill.
Bring it on 2011!!
