The New Year

Has come and gone and I'm a slacker. Oh wait, I'm NOT a slacker, I've just had a busy "real life" lately. Now that the holidays are gone things might settle down. Though they may not. The twins are 5 1/2 months old which means they are awake more durning the day which means they need and want more during the day which, in turn, means I have less time to do things on the computer.

Anyone have New Year's Resolutions? Have you broken them off yet? I wouldn't say that mine were "resolutions" really. Just goals. I've decided that this is my year to be more actively involved in life. I have 3 Big C's and an E and I think everything stems off of them. Cooking, Cleaning, Crafting, & Exercise. Just to do them more. The Cooking and Exercise makes for a healthier me, and a healthier family. I know that once it gets warmer, I'll drag the family along. As it is, I'm trying to organize a Walking Club with our homeschool group to start up once the temps are more consistently in the 40's, so mid to end of March. I'm also trying to organize a Craft Club, to do twice a month. The big inhibitor in that one is finding a location, though I think we may be able to use a room at one of the library branches.

Jason is being considered for a move to a different department at WalMart. It would be full time and quite possibly 3rd shift. The 3rd shift would be nice simply because it would mean an extra $1 an hour. He keeps getting talked to about it, but it hasn't happened yet. He keeps mentioning it to let "The Powers That Be" know that he is still interested. We are hoping that that takes place soon.

I have pictures from Christmas to post. And some that I did of Abbey. And some of Jack. It just seems like I've been out of it for quite some time now and I'm trying to find the swing of things again.

In my crafting goal, I finished a hat I was knitting for Abbey. It's made out of Pink Fun Fur. It's a little on the big side, and very stretchy, but very cute. So I'll leave you with the pics of her for right now. Enjoy. Prayers and blessings and I hope you all are getting back in to the swing as well.
