Resolutions!



Have you ever heard of one little word by Ali Edwards?  I am not sure when she started doing this but I decided this year I would join in.  I haven't signed up for her class but I figured I could pick a word and hopefully stick with it.  One thing I find I always struggle with is keeping up with my resolutions.  I always seem to have grand plans and then they fizzle pretty quick.  So it came to me one day....my word for 2013 will be CONQUER.  This will be the year that I conquer all of my resolutions.  

To start out I wanted to write out my resolutions and keep them somewhere that I would be able to take a look at them when I needed a reminder.  The perfect solution came in the mail from a friend from New Brunswick.  I had participated in a secret pal exchange with a group of ladies that all share my love of scrapbooking.  My secret pal sent me a Smash book for Christmas....I was so excited to find it in my box of Christmas goodies.  I knew this book would be dedicated to me and what I did in the year 2013.  I also knew I wanted to make it something that was simple and easy and didn't take up a lot of my time to complete.  So I came up with this page for my resolutions and included my one little word "conquer". 

 And here is a close up of my goals.  The little notepage came with my smash book.  Normally I wouldn't have 10 resolutions but I figured why not.  Already I am doing well with #7 - blog more.  Number 6 is one I really need to work on...especially with my kids.

Thanks for taking a peek into my world and I hope you are having a fabulous start to 2013!  Happy Crafting!
