New Year, New Beginnings

IMG_0207I spent this afternoon boxing our Christmas decorations. I had to get it done while JJ was napping, or else it wouldn’t have been done today.  Of course Joshua wasn’t too happy to see that the tree was gone when he woke up.

Right now  I have this desire to go through the house and clean and organize our home with the turn of the calendar.  Rohan has mentioned it again that it’s time to move, soon, so with that in mind the urge is even stronger to purge, donate and organize. 

As I make my plan of action on how to go through all the physical piles/ things throughout the house, I’m also making a mental note on some things that I hope to do this year.

  1. spend more time doing the things I enjoy. Reading, scrapbooking, and maybe even take up a class to learn something new.
  2. volunteer more, give my time and energy more generously
  3. and also to cook more often at home. I confess this is not something that I do often enough.

Have you made any resolutions for the new year?

Well best wishes to you this MMXI!!

Happy New Year to you and your family! I'm always bit by the organizing and cleaning bug this time of year too. My Christmas stuff is put away and I've cleaned several cupboards out. I've got some bags to deliver to Goodwill and it feels good!
