Isn't that the funniest thing? Ok, maybe not, but it just tickled me this morning! My mom found it in a box of my Grandma's pictures that she is copying and trying to make sense of! Many of the pictures are my Great Grandmothers! This is probably one of hers.
I have read many New Year Resolutions...many great one's. Do I make them? No not really. Why? I don't know. I guess it has to do with the fact that when I start making resolutions I start thinking of tomorrow and the next day and ect and I kind of freak. I like one day at a time, enjoying the moment, waking up and visiting with God and setting my priorities with Him. I do have to look ahead, don't get me wrong. Like everyone, I have to plan, write things down on my calendar, and make sure my family is taken care of. But I'm just not one to say I am going to try to do this,this and that this year. Right or wrong? I don't know. Does it work for everyone? Of course not!
I have started some "new" things in the first two days of the year. Yesterday, 1/1/07, I started a log cabin quilt. It has been one of my "goals" to make some traditional quilts, so yesterday I started cutting strips. It will be red,white & blue.
And today I walked again, hopefully I will keep that up. I work with a lady that works out in the school weight room when we finish our day, and she is willing to show me what to do. She does that on M/W/F, so maybe tommorow I will dive into to that!
See, I may not call them resolutions...but it does tend to sneak up on you doesn't it? :)

Happy New Year, Bee! I love that cow picture...takes me back to my "roots". :) I too have made up my mind to make a couple of quilts for myself, one of which will be "Tree Angel" and has a log cabin background (Simple Libby's pattern ;p). As for walking, I've been doing that too for the last week. I do hope I can keep it up. As for the weights, go for it, girlfriend! That's always so much more fun when you have someone pointing you in the right direction!
Oh, I lOVE that cow picture!! And remember to tell your daug its that Johnson Body Head to Toe Wash not lotion, and just a little drop will work, I made the mistake of putting it all over my face and it took forever to wash all the suds off! lol (Its the no tears stuff, that is why it doesn't burn the eyes!)
Hey, will be watching for the logcabin progress, its one of my favorite tradiotnal patterns!
