I've never made any New Year's resolutions. Ever. What's the point? If I could do what I wished to do I would just do it regardless of what month it was. But this year I figured it wouldn't hurt to make a list of things I would like to work on with no real expectations. That way I won't be so disappointed if I don't really accomplish anything but super proud of myself if I do.
Jess' Goals for 2012 (in no particular order):
- Market myself - send out letters/brochures/cards to companies in the Fargo/Moorhead and surrounding areas
- Start saving for an iPad2 and Q-chord to use in sessions and at home
- Get off the recliner and turn off the TV
- Play with my kids and husband more
- Knit something for everyone I love
- Make a monthly supper menu and make it happen in real life
- Play the piano
- Uncover my sewing machine and use it
- Drink less pop and more water
- Acknowledge that I am good at what I do
- Be happy with who I am and what I have - stop comparing myself to others
I had them numbered first but changed them to bullets because I thought it was kinda sad that the first thing on my list was about work and the last about self-appreciation.
As the monkeys run amok around me I am sure of one thing: parts of this year will be filled with energy, experience,
tears, work, sass, learning,
anger, empathy, 
relating, laughter,
telling, singing,
repetition, frustration, joy,
excitement, creating, gaming, whining, humor,
forgiveness and a whole lot of love. And that is just the way I like it.

Those are good goals! Happy 2012 to you, honey. Luv u!
You can do them all, dearheart.
I cannot get over how big the kid are getting.
I like the idea of a list--takes the pressure off a bit, doesn't it?
And I'd like a nice soft pale purple scarf please. Almost the same color as your new colors here. Love it, by the way.
