2010

Today is the 1st day of 2010.  I turn 55 this year,  I will have been married 34 years.  My oldest son will be 29 and my youngest will turn 26.   I will have lived in this same house for 28 years.  My little sister will have been deceased for 12,  my older brother for 36, my Mom 2 years.  I miss them everyday.  I am  blessed I have a wonderful oldest brother, and my Dad as well as my sons, husband and in laws this including a beautiful daughter in law and my brothers wife, many cousins, aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews and many wonderful close friends. Everyone a true blessing in my life.

I think this year I would like to write my goals out here.  I usually do not make resolutions but I do like to make a few goals to get myself motivated to do.
1st would be to be better organized,  my Dad has recently remarried so I will need to go thru much of my Moms stuff.  I need to be strong about letting go of much of this.  This stuff is not my Mom so I need to learn to let it go.  Which means being organized,  not bringing stuff home I will not use or need. Organization!!!
2nd and this is a goal every year and I do this consistantly and that is to walk my dogs.  Not really a goal but something I do like to do and in the process I get lots of good exercise,  maybe a bit more would be good as well.
3rd I really want to do more of my own quilting.  I found a box in my shed this past week putting Christmas stuff away.  It is full of un quilted  quilt tops.  Lots I could quilt and give away.  Lots that I would just like to have finished.
4th Do more with my embrodiery machine, even more free motion.  this would include a long promised dragon quilt for my brother.

I hope to check most of these off before the end of this 2010.  If I do we will start from scatch next year if not,  just put them back on that list.
My hope is to have a wonderful 2010 just as good as 2009 and I will be happy.
