Recap and Resolutions

Happy 2016! I had a very nice night ringing in the new year.  After a lazy afternoon, the girls and I ordered in dinner from our favorite local Italian place. After I put them to bed, I talked with my sis on the phone, then did a little work on novel #3.

Skip was able to get home earlier than we thought, and we were able to watch an episode of Making a Murderer before midnight.

We poured some drinks, and turned on the TV just in time to see the ball drop at midnight.  And as always, I was grateful NOT to be standing in the middle of Times Square. Standing for hours in one section unable to move or leave and use the bathroom? No thanks:)

Afterwards, we watched another episode on Netflix and went to bed far too late.

So as I sit here chugging my coffee, appropriately exhausted for the day, I can't help but think of what I hope to accomplish in this new year.  I've always been a fan of resolutions and make no apologies for that.  I'm not even always good at following them, but I like the tradition.

So here are my 2016 Resolutions:

Do you make resolutions?  What are you hoping to accomplish this year? How do you keep yourself accountable?

    Happy New Year! I hope your year is off to a good start (despite the injury)! I could use a few of the same resolutions...specifically 8 and 10! Haha!

Spring Giveaway!

First off I want to thank Kim over at Life As I Know I t for becoming my 100 th follower! I love her blog and just know we would hang out all the time if she didn't live across the country. I am completely humbled that 100 people actually want to read what I have to say! Blogging has opened up a whole new world of friendships to me and I would probably not have kept doing it if it was not for all of you! Okay, now it's down to the good stuff. I am *dying* for a little spring around here. We had a few days of warmth and sunshine, but for the past three days it has been raining...again....I heard they have even mobilized our National Guard in case the rivers decide to really get out of hand...you know more than the crazy flooding they've already been doing. Anyways, one of my favorite things to do to get ready for spring is to paint my nails a fun, bright color. So today I am giving away these beauties. One lucky reader will win all four of these fabulous colors! I g...

$50 CSN Giveaway!!

As you all know, I have raved about my love of CSN stores several times before.  They have a huge selection of products and are constantly adding new stores to their website.  My family definitely headed over there to do some of our Christmas shopping, and I was just perusing their selection of flat panel TV stands.      It's one thing, however, for me to tell you how great CSN is.  But it's another for you to experience it yourself.  That is why I am so excited to be sponsoring a $50 gift certificate giveaway to CSN to one of my readers!!!  It's the perfect opportunity to order yourself something you didn't receive for Christmas, or check out their fitness equipment to help with your new year's resolution! Entering is simple...just leave a comment telling me what your new year's resolution is {you can also just say you aren't making any this year if that's the case!}  The giveaway will be open until January 7th 10:00 pm est.
