Good Bye 2011

Reflecting.

2011 has been a good year,
full of life's usual ups and downs.
I feel like this year I have learned
a lot about my self.
I have recognized much of the things 
I would like to change and fix about who I am
and how I react to certain things life throws me.
I have accomplished many things in 2011 
but I am ready for new challenges. 

2011 Resolutions.

Last year my resolutions were:
  1. Join a gym...I did.
  2. Make and pack a lunch for Dave every day (to save him money and for him to eat healthy)...check.
  3. Learn how to can veggies...thanks Judy for the tomato canning lesson:)
  4. Go to the Public Market regularly...this happened:)
  5. Paint and do more art...I am on painting number three for this year!
  6. Learn more difficult recipes...I learned how to make eggplant parm, chicken parm, enchiladas, beef stew, apple crisp, apple sauce, fresh homemade sauce, and a new chicken soup recipe... I HAVE BEEN BUSY!
  7. Paint my living room and kitchen...check. 
  8. Work on gardening in my front and back yard...slow but steady process!
  9. Begin to Blog...I am now on my 67th post! YES!
I believe I accomplished much of my goals this year.
There is always room for improvement!
What did you accomplish this year?
I have to think about new expectations of myself,
but I know for sure I want to start to sew and I want 
to exercise more regularly and eat even more healthier.

New Year's Eve Plans.

Today for NYE we are going to the Lake house
to get away from the norm and we are bringing 
games, shrimp as well as other yummies, music, DVDs and are going to bring the 
new year in right!
Post ya next year.
Happy New Years!!!

Love always,
Kimmie B.

Here is a few I made
