13 Goals for 2013

Hey there! Hope you are doing well. The weather has already changed to rain, and it is really windy out right now. Wah wah. But I wanted to share my list of things I would like to accomplish this year. I have been told that 2013 is the year of optimism, and I am ready to take the opportunity to cease the moment.

I have never really had "resolutions", because I have never thought about making any. This year I have a few things I would like to do so I am writing them down. Many of them are very broad, some may seem a little silly, but I am a list maker so even the smallest goal is written! Call them resolutions if you would like. I am sticking with the word "goals".

13 Goals for 2013

1. Spend more time outdoors with my family.
2. Start and finish the owl puzzle that I have never opened.
3. Complete the pillow project for my mom, and sign up for a beading class.
4. Take at least 5 minutes of my day to just sit, and relax.
5. Submit at least one piece of work to a scrapbook/card making magazine.
6. Reorganize the guest room, and finish painting the house.
7. PLAY! with baby B (who is no longer a baby so I probably should say little B?)
8. Press leaves and flowers, and use them in my craft projects. Finish a set of 5 cards and give them away.
9. Run more. Sign up for at least one local race.
10. Scrap every photo and keepsake from years past. Start a scrap a photo or two a month habit.
11. Tell my friends and family how much them mean to me more often! Write. Call. Visit.
12. Try one new recipe a month. Cook more.
13. Keep the house clean by making a set schedule.
14. Get the kitchen organized, and get hardware for the cabinets.

There you have it. My list for the year. I am happy with it, and I think that the items above are very achievable . Now is the time to start. No better time then now.

Do you have any goals for this new year?

I saw this wonderful "to-do" list on facebook this morning, and I thought it was brilliant.


Have a wonderful day. Hugs!

Hello again!

Wow, things have been busy to say the least - moving, and taking care of a 9 mth old sure takes a lot of time! :)

Nothing new to share right now. I recently designed a birthday card, and have a few projects coming up, but for now I will leave you with a list of a few things I am hoping to accomplish before the end of the year. Making a list usually makes me more motivated so here goes!


1. Learn guitar.

2. Take a letterpress class.

3. Sign my mom and up for a beading class (sorry it has taken so long mom!). We actually said we would do this for her birthday...that was in November. :/

4. Post 15 items on my Etsy website.

5. Try 1 new recipe each week from my MASSIVE (no joke) file of "Recipes to Try".


Do you have something that you have been thinking of trying lately? What are some of your goals for the year?


Have a happy day!



The photo above is a snowy owl. My good friend Val, baby B, and I went up to see them in WA. Such amazing creatures. Val took this great photo! It makes me smile looking at it. :)
