I love resolutions. There is something about the new year that seems shiny, and full of possibilities.

I really love this challenge idea from “The Anti-Jared.” and I enjoy his blog as well.

I’m going to the gym today. And actually working out.

Suzanne is the big winner of the BEAUTIFUL notecard set, handmade by Tonya. Way to go, Suzanne and Kimmie- who both did an excellent job. So excellent, in fact, that I will also send Kimmie a small something just because I’m so proud.
Suzanne, get me your email address and I’ll hook you up […]
