New Year Reflections

Well as 2013 begins, I think it's safe to say that one of the best parts of 2012 was my family's new addition, Mr. Spock, the market rescue kitty. He has thoroughly enjoyed his first holiday season, succeeding in pulling the Christmas tree over three times in his obsession to rip off every paper crane on the branches (and we haven't the taken the tree down yet, so he might still get the chance to pull it down once more!)

So as I head into the new year, I've decided to make it easy on myself. My resolutions are consisting of three things that are pretty much guaranteed at this point. My evil plan is to convince myself that I've gotten a lot accomplished by selecting resolutions that are already a sure thing. That way maybe it'll end up actually allowing to get more completed later if I give myself that false sense of accomplishment now.

So my to-do for 2013 consists of getting my first children's book, The Witching Hour, published (it's actually in process now). Get my website made over (already half done). And lastly, clean my craft room (aka my bedroom) and finally complete all those half-started projects. This is the one that's going to take the most work, but it's also the one I want done most of all (I hate feeling cluttered with unfinished projects). And as my crazy quilt and the Clint Eastwood serape are both part of that equation, I'll be doing a lot more work on them as well (yes, I really am planning to finish them at some point, it's just slow going).

So now if I can have all that done by the end of 2013 (or actually before the start of farm market season would be even better), I'm going to be one happy farmer!
