1. I will still be shooting for $20,000 in my savings acct.
2. I will make all my Christmas gifts and I WILL start much earlier this year.
3. I will take charge of my health and doing what I can to get this arthritis thing under control.
4. I will increase my activities of lightening my global footprint. Which is at 3.5 right now. I can't believe it is so high! Most all of that is due to living in a hot climate and having to use a/c all the time and what isn't attributed to that, goes to driving a car. I just do not live in the right place.
I didn't do the obits last week or this past Sunday either. So I will just give you the highlights of this week:
"Maria Elena found peace with the Lord on Dec. 24"
"In memory of our late father, Pledger Bracket, please help save minds by donating to the Alzheimer's Assoc."
"Katheryn Gaynelle age 89, fell asleep in death due to complications of Alzheimer's disease".
"Howard E. (Bubba), age 67, passed away"
One guy "passed into God's hands" while another man "slipped into the Lord's hands".
But my favorite was this:
"George Eugene lived joyfully with his beloved wife of 67 years."
Living joyfully with your beloved sounds like just the kind of legacy I would like to leave behind.
. . . . . . . . and without further ado . . . . . . . . . . .
The very first winner of a free bag of tea is . . . . . .
Sarah!
Sarah with an H, as opposed to other Sara's without H's, please shoot me an email with a mailing address and I will send you a lovely bag of tea.
Next month we will do the same thing. So make sure you are here during the first week of the month if you want to get in on this excitement. 'Cause what is more exciting than free stuff?!!
On to other news, did any of you watch the first episode of the new season of Biggest Loser last night? I did not understand this at all. But if I were Bob or Jillian I would be dusting off my resume'. This does not bode well for either of them. Yes, I have seen the gossip reports that Jillian will be leaving after this season. But Bob? What about Bob? And still after the 2 hour long opener we have not seen the faces or names of the "Unknowns" as they are calling the new trainers. Very strange.
Have a great day!
And Sarah, let me hear from you.
My resolution is a very banal and cliche'd "live a better life."
ReplyDeleteI love the "fell asleep in death" obit. I guess she woke up dead.
I like the idea of giving away all your extrra stuff. I wish I had thought of that, as I have been cleaning out, preparing to move.
ReplyDeleteAlthough, I don't think any of you would be interested in 327 extra C-pap masks, $1,763,876 Venezuelan Bolivars, $3 in the state quarters from the 1999 folder (the rest were stolen by the 10 year old owner) and last, but not least, 72 bath puffys found under the sink.
Dawn, you should totally give a bath puffy to each person who comments on your blog.
ReplyDeleteMe! I'm Sarah with an H! I'm sorry I just now got to you in my Google Reader!
