Goals for 2010

Well 2009 has not been kind to our family and 2010 is staring us down pretty hard.

I make that statement but I can count the blessings God has given us..they are so obvious they almost smack me in the back of my head. But it is ending with my husband not working in the industry that has provided for us. A member of our church family is letting him work (BIG BLESSING) with him until he can get a job making the money we have based our bills around again. I sit here and ask why...but then I think of Job from the Old Testament. God let the Devil test his faith by taking all of material belongs, disfiguring him and he lost his family. By no means do I want to be tested like Job, but sometimes I think it's a test in Faith. That to just keep our Faith will keep our Hope that we will pull through these hard times. So I am hoping the New Year will bring us some good news about a job and much better luck.

I never try to make resolutions but this year I am sorta...but calling them GOALS. I have joined the Art Journal Caravan with Tangie Baxter from Scrapbookgraphics. It's a 52 week journey if you start at the beginning that I am excited to start. I am also going to attempt to do a version of Project 365. Not sure how that will evolve but I am positive that it will turn out just FABULOUS. And the other goal is to go to the gym. Yes, I am joining the masses with that goal. I have actually had a gym membership all year but with all the time I have needed to care for my Papaw I have put myself on the backburner. So I am putting ME first again. Because if I don't start taking care of myself again, I won't be around for my kids or grandbabies for that matter. And I want to do more digiscrapping. I ventured into this area from tag making this year. So I am leaving the tagging world and entering the digiscrapping world whole-heartedly.

What else am I doing in 2010, oh yeah, I am taking a class over at Jessica Sprague's on better ways to use a Wacom Tablet. My Mom gifted me with that class when it was first announced since I already had a tablet. That should be fun.

Today I am just piddling about the house. I gotta dust and wash some laundry. I really need to head to WalMart for a few things....my hubby would appreciate some groceries I am sure..lol.

So let me jet outta here for now.
