Every year I resolve to be so much more than I was the year before...create more, cook more, clean more, learn more...and inevitably I am overwhelmed by the endeavors and ultimately disappointed in the results.
I created this blog 2 years ago as a place to inspire my efforts and 6 months in I abandoned ship!
In 2014 I did not make a single entry, honestly I didn't give it much thought at all.
But 2015 is a new year and I have a new angle. Rather than making a grand list of resolutions to take on I am choosing to take time to appreciate what I already do, and celebrate these accomplishments.
As a completely flawed perfectionist I put too much emphasis on getting it right every time. I need to take a lesson from the advice that I give my kids when they are frustrated with their work, and that is to take is easy on yourself. Not everything turns out the way you want, and that's ok. My goal this year is to find something I like, not every day, but as many days as I can, and give myself a little more credit. I think if I record these successes here, then by the end of the year I will have a great recorded journal and visual reminder of what I do.
I'm doing this for me, but hope others enjoy the journey...
