Begin again... and again if necessary
End of the year... Time to pretend I am going to spend the next year blogging. We all know how this is going to go by now, right? Let's just pretend for a minute though.
2013 wasn't my favorite year. Not for any particular reason but that it wasn't. Not sure what caused that to happen but I think I am ready to put 2013 in the rear-view and get on to 14.
I am a little conflicted, as I write this. I am not sure what I want my goals to be. Maybe it is because it seems like they need to be so big in order to make real change in the next year.
So I think I start small.
In January my goal is to walk an intentional mile every day. That means a mile more than what I would walk incidentally just getting to and from work every day, or at work or whatever. If for some reason I can't do the walk during the day then I have to do 5-10 miles on the bike.
I think I start there. My puppy kids need to start going for more walks too. The only problem now is that it is so stinkin' cold that trying to get them out of the house may be tough. That means we go for walks on the nice days and on the cold ones, I take the tunnels.
I have a goal to start saving more money too but I haven't quite figured that one out yet. Every idea I come up with involves cash and I rarely actually have cash, so I will have to keep working on that one.
Besides one special project, my crafting goals are to sew from my stash rather than continuing to by additional fabric to squirrel away. The next part of that craft goal is to sew at least two premie quilts each month. It's a win-win. Sewing the stash, practicing new quilty ideas sometimes, and keeping tiny babies warm.
So there we are. This is where 2014 starts.
