...................And In with the New!
Are you celebrating with friends and family tonight?
We are going to a friend's house to play cards and eat . I hope the weather holds up. It is snowing here right now. Just a miserable snow, not a pretty snow. lol
Have you made any plans for the new year??
I don't make resolutions because it seems like I break them. I like to make myself, "promises" . A promise to myself to improve my own life, my own surroundings. :)
The part about improving my own surroundings has already started.
The last two days I spent painting my ceilings. Yea!! They are all done!! I just redid them in white ,but omg! The big improvement. I guess you dont' realize how gray they get after a while. Brush some white paint up there and then look!!!
These are my home projects I want to get done.
1. paint bedroom
2. paint living room
3."'redo" my kitchen to have more prim cabinets
3. new living room set
Projects about "me"
1. lose a few pounds
2. learn a new skill
3. buy new undergarments. :)
4. start a conversation with someone new at least once a month.
I am sure there is more I could add to the list. :)
We are planning a trip to the thrift stores ( some big ones) next week.
Have you found any goodies lately?
Promises are a good way of putting it. I like your list much better than some I see. At least you know things are possible to complete and you'll get to cross things off and feel you accomplished something, unlike some peoples grand ideas for like World Peace in the new year! LOL
