New Year

Happy New Year! (Lora and Jill)

I have great expectations for 2009-for me, and for my friends (hear, hear for great jobs, and blessings to you both!).

As ever, I'm list-making like a madwoman. I started with my project list for the year. I figure with ten projects, that's about one a month, with a little wiggle room. So, for purposes of accountability, here they are:
  • cover bedroom chair and ottoman
  • albumize photos once and for all
  • organize, electronicize and file music (backup, too)
  • get permanent Christmas storage containers
  • sew one wearable original piece of clothing
  • downsize-books, keepsakes, pantry
  • make a personal cookbook
  • get filing system under control
  • get a coordinating headboard
  • get a roll-away bed. (This is to stimulate visitors...hint, hint!)
I have a new year's resolutions list, but at the moment, it's still in my head. My big projects there are to make activity a part of my daily routine (so far, I'm actually doing ok), drink more water, go to bed earlier, and eat more veggies. Well. There's some spiritual growth stuff on that list, too-but it's still being mulled over. :)

That's about it for now. I am trying to accomplish most of my list for the weekend, and blogging was on it, so that's one more thing I can cross off the list! Woohoo! I'm off to clean my floors... Ugh.

Donna, my friend, it's great to hear from you here!:) I can't tell you how much I enjoyed our phone conversation the other day--it was so encouraging to me!

I hope to see more of you here this year, since I'm here most of the time-ha!

Love you,
Lora
