Happy New Year!

2025 is here and I am ready to move forward in all areas of my life. 

2023 was a soul killing year - tragedies were not limited to the house fire that totally destroyed physically, emotionally and mentally. 2024 was better and actually got kind of great towards the end. I bought a loom in April, took a fun class in May, totally refurbished the loom, took a great beginner class in July and by year's end, I had fallen in love and finished two projects.

In October the new house was done and the studio was returned to it's original purpose as a place to be creative, instead of a cramped and crowded home for me and my kitties, Halo and Butter. And once again, here I am. Back at the laptop.  Ready to go with a plan.

2025 will be the year I finally learn how to budget so I can tell my money where to go instead of wondering where it wandered off. 

This year I will incorporate exercise as a daily practice and start taking vitamins instead of relying on my sometimes shoddy eating habits. (It's worth a try.) 

This year I will spend a large part of everyday in pursuit of creative endeavors. 

I am committing to a daily writing practice and finding beta readers, an agent and finally publishing one of my books. It may not be published in 2025, but it's a great place to start. 

I'm also committing to finishing old projects that have lingered far too long, but also taking on new challenges and learning new stuff. 

Wow.  That's a lot to do in a year, but if I do a little bit every day, I might just end up amazing myself! 

Happy Giraffe!
