So Long 2017

Wow, over two months since I posted!  What is that all about?  I will try harder in 2018 because I do use this as a form of "diary".  I don't have many followers or people who read this regularly but I enjoy going back and re-reading old posts as it keeps a record of what goes on in my boring little life.

So this post will not be full of pictures.  It is the end of another year.....eventful for us and it flew by once again.  Starting off with my radiation treatment and then a surprise sale of our High River house and a move to the unknown once again.  Lots of renos with more to be done and then a great job that turned full-time.  There are many things I want to do or change in the new year.  No resolutions....and I will try and think of a word of the year.

I need to relax more.  I don't mean do nothing but put my feet up but I am never relaxed....if I remind myself to relax I can physically feel my shoulders un-tense (if that's a word).  I can feel my jaw unclench.  I have no idea why I am so uptight but I hope to change that...somehow.

I need to take better care of myself.  I need to start moving my body....walking, exercise....and I have to eat better and drink more water.  (I sound like a broken record here!)

I need to worry less about my kids and their lives.  ðŸ˜Ÿ

I need to be more creative and either "use it or lose it" when it comes to my sewing/quilting/crafting supplies.  I have a beautiful space that I only look at and sit in and rearrange in.  I have so many projects to do but feel as though I have lost my mojo.  Gotta find it and quick!

I need to "let go".  Yep, I need to clear space.....every closet, under every bed, is full of "stuff".  It's gotta go!

I need to "do".  I need to get things done that need to be done instead of procrastinating.

I need to "go with the flow" more.  Although I am getting better at this I still need some work.


I would like to learn something new....the piano?  a new language?  to knit?  to bake bread?  Something.......

Always striving towards being a better wife, mother, grandmother......person.  A better me. 💗
