New Year...

...resolutions.

I have been thinking of all of the things that I need to do better in life.  I don't want to have a list of things I forget in February, so, I'm starting late...he he he.

I am terrible at great at starting things and terrible at finishing.  That's one of the reasons that I am still working on my girls bedspreads for the sixth year now, and my kitchen cabinets remain undone. Sigh...

So my resolution this year is to finish everything I have started.  I have a huge list of things, so I better get started!

Any and all encouragement would be welcome, because I know I can do it!
