So I am sitting here with the comforting smell of dinner in the oven wafting through the house as the kitty sits at my feet on the ottoman and I have a glass of sparkling apple cider (we had more that we could drink last night) whilst I think of the things I want to accomplish this year.
- One special pair of knitted socks a month (patterns that aren’t just stockinette)
- Lose the weight I gained from the knee surgery/get in shape again
- Save extra money for a year just so I can give my kids an extra special Christmas
- Start reading a book (at least one) a month – because I spend no time relaxing/reading
- Finish my WIPS (blankets I started up to 3 years ago)
- Read my entire Bible (I still haven’t done that since I started to believe in 2009)
- Finish two quilts I started last year (for Christmas 2015 – for the kids)
- Keep my hands and dye off of my hair (oh and no more shaving of my head)
I have a few pictures to share as well:
