2013...you and I are going to get along juuuust fine!

Do you make New Years resolutions? In my maturing years (older age? lol) I have learned not to. Your whole life should be a work in progress...ever evolving and always improving. You should not base your success on making 50 changes all in one day. It's impossible for anyone! But if you continually work on things a little at a time, that is what success is to me.

So what will 2013 bring for me? There is usually one thing, a big thing, that I have been mulling over, wanting to change, improve, etc throughout the year. Last year it was my health and my weight. I don't know if I have it conquered entirely (time will tell!) but I have an excellent start and am well on my way. So what for 2013? Actually, it's my blog! No big plans to post every day or anything...I just want to post what I have done. I find I scrapbook something, photograph it, then it sits in my camera...forever...doing nothing. Ugh. So 2013 is the year of the blog! Do you have a blog? Leave a comment below with the address so I can check you out!

Here is a double 12x12 layout I did a couple months ago. It didn't come out exactly how I had planned...but the story did. In the coming year, OWN YOUR TIMELINE. We have all done stupid things. Made rash decisions, been embarrassed, hurt someone's feelings or had our own feelings hurt. We've had good things come our way. No matter what it is, just own it honestly and move on. Bad hair days and all.
Be blessed in 2013. And more importantly...be a blessing to someone else. xo

I LOVE IT! "Well behaved woman rarely make history." Written with us in mind? Since YOU one of the reasons that I even HAVE a blog.. I am so glad to see you back in the saddle again. Your writing always seems to be right on the button for me in my life... I guess we are just on the same wavelength...grin... Looking forward to seeing you in print again in 2013 (and MAYBE in PERSON??!!) Bigger GRIN

Glad to see you blogging again!! I don't get a chance to visit much but when I do, it's always entertaining! Great layout - I may have to do one on the evolution of my hair throughout the years! :D
