New Years Resolution?

Well, I had thought about making a resolution to blog more. But here we are and it took me a full 8 days to get my first blog post in! So, my New Years resolution is to blog twice as much this year as I did last year, which means about every 2-3 days. I think I can do this- even if no one is reading it. I really like being able to put my thoughts down and send them out to the world. It holds me more accountable for getting things done.

I bought a video camera just before the holidays and I was so excited because I thought it meant that I could take lots of short videos for my blog. But alas, the video cam software and Blogger don't work all that well together and you really can't post a video unless it is less than 3 minutes or so long. Nonetheless, my resolution IS to blog LOTS more this year, AND to include video as I can- because I think it's more interesting. Next video will be of my overall stamp collection.

Some of my goals for the coming year:

Explore new art mediums
Write more (including on my blog!)
Spend less time on the computer and more time doing (doing everything I love to do!)
Focus on getting my art out into the world

And hubdude and I are trying to have another 'buy nothing new' year, which is a challenge, but a worthwhile challenge. We did this 2 years ago and it really reduced our overall consumption and forced us to be creative in finding ways to get things done and to get what we need. I highly recommend trying it. The only caveats were that we COULD buy new socks and underwear, because, well ewwww if we didn't buy those new....

Happy New Year!
