I've been working out and making beads.  I thought when you work out you get energized.  What gives?

Well I'm off to watch Wall-E and bundle up under the blankets. Just think of it as practice for the end of the week when that artic cold blast will hit us here in NY!

Speaking of cold, ok COOL...Minesweeper on ETSY

During the last two weeks of the year, I threw caution to the wind.  I declared myself on vacation from everything.  Didn't care what I ate, didn't care that I sat on the couch days at a time catching up on my recorded shows, renting movies and neglecting all things domestic.  Yes, I was a lazy slob (although I still did manage to shower and brush my teeth).  I didn't worry at all that I hadn't made any beads to sell in ages and my 2 day a week part time job was down to one day or no days.

I was content - sort of.  I knew I was wasting my days.  I was whittling my life away. However, in the back of my head I knew that change for the better was just around the corner.  I had my sights set on Monday, January 5, 2009.  Aiming for January 1st was futile as it was way too close to the weekend. 

I'm happy to report that two days of effort and accomplishments have come to an end as I write this.  I have managed to walk for one hour on the treadmill at a pretty steep incline.  I opted for healthier food choices and I'm happy to say, I'm happy.  The career area still needs improvement, but hey, one step at a time. 

I did manage to photograph some goodies and the results were fantastic.  I'm sporting a new bead avatar in my ETSY shop.  Wanna see????

Why is it that a brand spankin' new year always makes you feel like the world is your oyster and anything and everything good will happen?

Hey, I'm not turning my nose up at this fantasticly wounderful feeling.

I got my resolutions in mind.  Of course, they don't officially start until next Monday.  This new year's is just way too close to the weekend.  Why bother, right?

I've spent about 3 hours of my day talking on the phone to my best friend as she drives 5 hours to visit her family for the weekend. 

Woo hoo, I say!  Keeping in touch with loved ones is one of my resolutions...ehm... goals...desires...for the year.

I also managed to update my ETSY shop.  All prices were reduced for clearance as I want to start with new inventory next week....

Take a peek, you just might find a set of beads to fall in love with at a bargain of a price!  See, you're already improving your profit margin in this new year :)
