What are Your Resolutions?

Here we are in the last hours of 2007, looking full in the face of 2008. Are you ready? Do you have any plans? Or are you mellow and just going to let happen what will happen. Now I know we can't control everything and sometimes it may seem that we can control very little. But I am a planner. I like to have an idea of where I'm going and what I'm going to do when I get there. That is one area where hubby and I differ. He likes to travel by the seat of his pants. Let's see what's there when we get there. Well I've seen some of those places and I don't really want to go there....again. So I plan ahead.

My New Year Resolutions are: 1)Focuse more on Christ - improve my time with Him in prayer and seeking Him in His Word and in His creation. 2)To be more loving with my family. Do you ever feel like you give so much out in the world that there is nothing left when you get home? I don't believe we should shortchange those we love. They are worth more than that, and deserve better than that.3) Then I'm going to really focus on Pattiwacks. More products and definitely more marketing. I am determined to really learn the ins and outs of etsy, blogging, and reaching more people in other areas. But along the way I don't want to forget the people I come across as I learn, or as they teach me. While I have the destination goal I don't want to overlook the journey.

So with those thoughts in mind I'm going to research blogger a little more - see how to link to others, upload pictures, and generally really make this site "mine".

I hope you have a great New Year whether you've made any resolutions or not. Enjoy!

New Year - New Beginnigs - New Opportunities

Welcome!
I'm a first time blogger and I'm so looking forward to getting acquainted with you. These things take time though and it can't all happen tonight.... so I wanted to let you know that we studied this in Sunday School this morning - New Year - New Beginnings - New Opportunities. But the absolute great thing is that with Jesus this is available each and every day. So I'll be back tomorrow. I want to tell you a little about me, my family, my etsy site, my goals..........and on, and on. I know slowly....slowly....slowly....... Goodnight
