Resolutions?

Personally, I don't do them because it's like saying the word "diet"...it's just not gonna happen:)

But, I do re-evaluate myself and reflect on the past year to see where I could've bettered myself. I also do this because my birthday is New Year's Eve and I want to make the next year of my life even better than the last.

Do you all do resolutions? Or do you do like me and just see where you can better yourself?

I'm always looking forward to another year. A new year gives everyone fresh hope and a clean slate to make the changes they need in their lives. Are you as excited as me to get started on 2009?

I hope you all have had a great year and have set some outstanding goals for '09!

Hugs,
Jules

Spring Cleaning!

No, this isn't an old post. I seriously cleaned the whole first floor of my house (excluding my bathroom). Wow, who knew you could pack this much junk into such a tiny cottage style home?

My poor living room took the brunt of the attack. Hubby and I pretty much tossed everything in the floor of the living room and decided what to put back and what to throw away. We used 6 of the super-sized black garbage bags and 10 thirteen gallon bags.

Now, I freely admit to being a pack rat and I'm sure one day I'll want something that got the boot, but I gotta tell ya, my house is looking pretty spiffy right now:) It's a nice feeling - even though I'm wiped out.

I can't wait 'til the girls come home and demolish it again, but at least there's less stuff to toss about. Right?

So, do any of you get in those silly, all day cleaning moods? I wish that burst of energy would come more often and then it wouldn't take as long.

Well, 'til next time, happy cleaning!
