New Directions for the New Year....

New Years Resolutions... shmezolutions.... Time to get life re-arranged, but haven't I been doing that already with at least 6 renovations and rearrangements of Altered Whimsey's Studios, some major life changes (my hysterectomy, dealing head on with my bipolar, being declared handicapped, and getting laid off...). I have scrapped some of these, and some are ideas in the back of my mind ready to be put to page. I have several things that I want to do next year....

2. eat healthier

5. exercise more
6. connect with my faith

7. reach out to others
8. volunteer
9. create a scrapbook e-zine
10. be a better wife
11. ride my bike more
12. write at least an hour each day
13. spend less time on the internet and more time creating
14. spend more time with family
15. watch less movies.... in other words, spend less time watching TV or DVD's

Going through withdrawals...
