Thoughts On the New Year

Family and Friends
Christmas 2009
Christi and Jeff's Home

After Cindi's plane landed from Denver, we had a lovely Christmas dinner at the home of Christi and Jeff. A few gifts were exchanged, photos were taken, and old stories remembered. It was a happy time together. Thanks Christi for all your hard work!

I have been pondering and planning for the new year and new decade. What types of actions and activities will I place on my "to do" list for 2010?
1. Being the TravelLady, I want to travel this year. Maybe the Grand Canyon, more western states, some eastern states, the Biltmore again. James and I are in the planning and saving stage.
2. Because I can sew and have that listed as a hobby, I would like to do a project this year. I have two slipper chairs and would love to sew slipcovers for them. Coordinating pillows are also in the planning stage. I have new fabric from a wonderful fabric store in Bartlett named Johnson's Fabrics.
3. Because I start a new diet once or twice a year, this year should be no different. I will always have extra weight to lose. Along with diet must go EXERCISE!! (I have all the equipment, I just need to use it.)
4. Because I am am a Bible-Believer, I plan to spend more time in study and prayer. A 2010 prayer journal will be started. (I kept prayer journals in the 1990's and I love to go back and read them. To the best of my human understanding, many of my prayers were answered.)
5. Being with family and friends will always be important to me. For 2010, I desire to connect with others - family, friends, strangers, and co-workers.

Ever thankful for all my blessings......
.....TravelLady
