Home Sweet Homemaker

I’m not one for New Year’s resolutions. I’m sure I resolved to change something in 2009, and probably made some list of things I was going to do differently, and who knows where that list or any like it have gone. Instead of looking at what needs to change this year, I choose to celebrate some accomplishments of 2009. Okay, “accomplishments” may be too strong of a word. Here’s some stuff I finally got around to doing:

1. We hosted our first Pampered Chef party which is something I have wanted to do for years but never followed through until now.
2. I finally joined MOPS. We eat potato casserole and chili at 9:00 in the morning, but it’s cool.
3. The new web site for our church was launched after a ridiculous amount of time and energy talking about it!
4. Completely silly, but I bought some boots, which I’ve wanted for years.
5. We painted the living room and dining room and hung curtains after living here for 7 years!
6. I conquered the sewing machine. Exaggeration, but I did became a little bit more comfortable with sewing.
7. I started Bible Study Fellowship (although at first I completely resisted the discipline and structure it required).
8. I finally rolled over my 401K after almost 5 years of thinking about it.
9. We saved some money and I now have a crazy fast laptop instead of my husband’s hand-me-down college machine!
