new year's resolutions!

As the New Year reigns in so do my goals for the year!  I have so many so I thought I would take the path of others and give a list of 36 things before I turn 37. This sort of coincides with my birthday since I am a December baby!

1.  Start OPAM—One Project a Month and finish them!

2.  Stop drinking cans of Coca Cola and start drinking Tea (I have to drink some sort of caffeine).

3.  Learn how to use Photoshop.

4.  Sew a Quilt.

5.  Create the little ones shared “Big Girl Room”.

6.  Get one of my blog posts featured on a major site.

7.  Try and make at least one kind of bread, homemade..from scratch.  I am inspired by Pinch My Salt’s Bread Challenge.
