Let see... what am I going to promise myself?
Get Healthy! Not necessarily a diet, but beginning with eating more than my one meal a day. Taking a walk twice a week, even if that is included with my letterboxing (which I am going to start as well.)
Knit from my stash every other month. Yes, I know its not perfect, but it will curb my instant obsessiveness when looking at yarn and thinking I have to get it now! Granted current sock clubs do not count, but yes, I will cancel/not renew them until I can really really afford them. January is 'knit from your stash' month for me. ::wince and cry::
Save money! Working with a realistic budget, we have planned to pay regular bills, pay towards my student loan, and still give ourselves some 'mad' money which each may spend during the month guilt free. If all goes to plan, then we will have enough by the middle of the year to plan a very nice vacation for our anniversary.
Blog more! I promise myself to blog at least 3-4 times a week, even if its nothing more than dropping in to say hello or posting a picture of the kids aka cats.
Read more! I shall set my reading goal to 200 books this year vs the easy 50 book goal I had last year.
Finally, work harder at work and work harder at play!
That is enough for right now, though once I have it started, I may be able to fit in even more on my calendar. ::grin::
Happy New Year to you all!

Isn't he a cutie!!! We have added him to our ETSY Store and will be having his brothers joining him over the weekend! He is being called Casper Doll Plushie.
I can't help it! He is just too awesomely cute!!! I have recently brought him for my sister's ugly bday present! She always gets an 'ugly' present from me and when I saw him at Megan's ETSY SHOP I could not resist and had had had to buy him! She will love him and if she ever read my blog she would get this spoiler early... as she barely had an internet connection, she won't know until she reads this when I tell her about it! I know, I know, I am EVIL!
I know know know know you have seen that movie 'Office Space' where Jennifer Aniston has a roll of the upcoming girlfriend to the main actor, but in the movie she is a waitress at like a TGI Friday sort of restaurant. In it she has to wear 'flair' aka buttons with funny sayings on them or pictures.
Many of you, unless you are Jasmine Becket-Griffith aka Strangeling fan, do not know that a few paintings of hers have an awesomely cute blue Yeti. Jasmine has stated on her blog and in person how the Yeti, to her, represents her hubby, Matt. Matt is a very devoted husband and partner for Jasmine and works hard and is very proud of the success his wife has developed. To this end, I had an idea.. why not make the YETI come to life! 
I am gonna learn to crochet! Mainly cause I wanna do all this awesome amigurumi projects I admit!!! ::hehe:: Amigurumi means “knitted or crocheted doll” in Japanese. They're the simplest of simple, worked in the round in single crochet. Though I only know one stitch, it would be awesome to read and understand the patterns too!
