A Year

I am notorious for short lived plans.

I have a way of starting things and then not sticking to them. I have started more diets than anyone I know, each one promising to rock my world and each one ending up rockin' it in the abyss of good intentions.

I start craft projects and never finish them. I have hoards of them... there are the Christmas ornaments that I began in 1995 and the braided rug that was started in 2005.

I start chore charts with the kids and I build fabulous routines that I am convinced will make me a more productive person, a better mom and a more fully contributing member of society.

I exercise until I start feeling better and then I quit.

I can't begin to tell you how many journals I have with only the first 4 or 5 pages filled or how many times I've made a resolution to put my shoes away each night.

I am a self-proclaimed Schemer, a Planner, an Idea Lover. I LOVE ideas. I relish the process of creating something that I think will change everything and I get excited to try it... never considering for a moment that it too will likely flop, as is my pattern.

But here today, I am proud to proclaim ONE of my ideas a terrific success! One year ago I began this little blog. I started it with the thought that it could be fun, I'd give this a try. And here I am one year later, actually still maintaining this little blog baby!

Good Job ME!!!
