Jump Start My Resolutions!

I am so proud of myself. I really put my resolutions into overdrive the last couple of days. I have had a bunch of scrapbook albums just sitting here incomplete with only a few minor things that had to be finished in them.

First off, my High School album I started about 10 years ago, only need the front page completed. Wow! that was easy and now it's done. Then my sons first Christmas album has been sitting in my drawer only needing about 5 pages completed. It had been sitting there for about 7 years...now it done. And then the one I just finished last night only need a title made and added to the very last layout. It had been sitting there for about 6 years, just waiting for that simple detail. Well they're all done and now I actually have albums in my living room for people to view.

I found three more albums that need only a few pages or pictures added and then they will be done. But then I have a bunch more catching up to do. At least I got a good jump on my resolution. Hopefully I can stick to it and get a bunch more done in the coming days before I have to return to my hectic school schedule.

Resolutions!

I should have posted this the other day, but I was so caught up in the newspaper article that I forgot.

I'm not going to make any big resolutions this year, just a couple small ones.

1. Study harder.
2. Graduate from NIU with a BS.
3. Finish all those albums that have been sitting on my shelf incomplete for over 5 years.
4. Finish all those little projects that need to be done around the house that I keep putting off.
5. Complete 209 scrapbook pages in 2009.

And I'm sure there a lot more I should add, but I can't think of any right now.

My wish for everyone is to stay happy, healthy and safe in 2009.

God Bless America!!!
