2017 Resolutions



A new year = new promises to oneself.

This year I am going to keep those goals simple.

I want to bake more. At least twice a month instead of twice every 6 months.

I want to exercise more - not to lose some ridiculous amount of poundage, but to increase lung capacity.

I actually want to share more on my blog because it's the only place that seems to allow freedom of expression without being 'unfriended' for the silliest of things. You know, like having an opinion?

I want to have a garden this year. ( I refuse to consider that we'll have another drought)

Last but not least, I want to love my God more, remember to thank Him more often, and pray more often.

The saddest thing?  The last promise will be the most challenging to keep. It's also the one that means the most. Interesting dichotomy, don't you think?

Anyway, Happy 2017!!
