New Year's Resolutions

I'm publishing this list in part, because I don't want to forget about it...also, it seems like if I share it with you...I'll be more likely to follow through! This year is all about quality of life, simplicity, and frugality. The latter is the price I'm gladly paying for being able to spend time with Joseph, but sometimes it might mean that I have to decline on fun things that cost alot of dollars. Be assured, this is not a life long goal, I'll never be frugal to the core.

Money/Home

1. Be CHEAP this year.
2. Grow Food/Can Food
3. Go to Farmer’s Markets
4. Buy Organic wherever possible (I know it's not cheap to do so, but this is important because we dont' want nasties going into Scrumptious' body)
5. Eat wisely
6. Cook at Home
7. Sew and Knit for us and gifts wherever possible
8. Use materials you already have or buy used items
9. Get rid of stuff and have yard sale
10. Airstream!

Personal/Professional

1. Publish a Zine 4 times this year (book fodder) I know this is a new idea coming from me...but just wait and see
2. Exercise every day (even a walk with Joseph)
3. Sort through mags and make idea binder (getting rid of mags along way)
4. Use the Library alot
   

Family

1. Be kind and calm
2. Show love with abandon
3. Enjoy every day with Joseph
4. Keep journaling for Joseph
5. Limited Movies/TV…no TV in front of Joseph (and knit or sew or project during a movie)
6. Eat dinner at the table
