It’s kind of hard to believe that we are starting a new year already. It doesn’t seem all that long ago that we were starting 2008, and here we are on January 2, 2009, just by a little though *LOL* It’s only 12:50am.

Last year I put of resolutions on the lefthand side of this blog, that listed several things like “not eating out so much” *LOL* I think that was truly an unattainable thing for my then lifestyle, and I still find when money provides, that I love to eat out a lot more than I love to cook. So I don’t think that will be a resolution or goal that I will be putting back on this year’s list. *LOL*

I also put on there that I wanted to “read my Bible and help the girls read theirs everyday”…Helping them read theirs was improbable with their reading skills, although Des is much closer now than a year ago. Yet, we have found a solution. I read the Bible to them, most nights anyway. I’ve been having trouble with sore throats and a bit of laryngitis so it hasn’t been as consistant these last few weeks as before, but we still struggle on.

I DID quit smoking!!!! I am really happy about that!!! Most of the time I don’t even miss it..*LOL*…and when I do, I take a puff off of my Dad’s cigars, and I very distinctly remember why I quit smoking!! *LOL*

I didn’t complete the afghan or crib quilt. The afghan would have been finished in time for Christmas, for my nephew, but I have been unable to crochet since early October, so that kind of put a wrench in the works, much to my dismay, as well as the dismay of my nephew. *smile* The quilt is the same, I haven’t been able to work on it for 3 months, so it is not complete either…but 2009 is a new year, and I am confident that I will get them done, and move on to other projects.

Well, that’s about all that I can remember being on my list for last year, and while I know that I didn’t complete many of them…I did complete some, and will continue to work on others. I have NOT made any resolutions for 2009, and I’m not sure I will either.
