Last Day of 2009

I wish I could say how great 2009 was to me...but about half of it really stunk!  With that said I am grateful for many blessings that have come our way this year.  There has been many. 

I look back even a few months ago when all the kids were going to school for the first time and I was so upset about it all...What would I do with my time?  Then I hurt my back...guess that was answered...I would have prefered a day at the spa...oh well.

Before I got hurt I made a list of some of the things I wanted to do this first year that the kids were in school.  I haven't really done much with it so far.  So I think I will turn part of it into my New Year Goal List.

1. Family History

2. Make quilts for Humanitarian Aid

3. Crock pot cooking / Meal planning

4. Service

5. Learn to sew something simple

6. work harder at having Family Home Evenings

7. scripture study... family and personal

8.  Organize photos

9. Work on Food Storage

10. Raising Chickens

11. Blogging

12. Baking Bread

That should keep me busy for 2010...or for the rest of my life!  There are other goals but I am sure this is more than I can handle.   I hope this year is wonderful.  It will be the year I turn the big 40...I haven't wrapped my brain around that one yet...I am not sure if I ever will or will want to.  When does one feel grown up anyway???  I guess that is another blog topic.  Have a great and happy and safe New Year.
