New Year

It is the beginning of a new year. New Years bring with it the new resolutions and goals that I would like to see come in the new year. My goal this year is to really work at getting fit. That goal includes loosing weight, which I hope comes a long with getting fit. My goal is to devote 45 minutes a day to exercising on my treadmill, glidder or just taking a long walk.

The Wii is in the house and Sam is addicted. We got the Wii fit and have been having fun trying to beat each others scores. Sam took the top skiing score and I just can't seem to beat him, but I have him on so many of the other balance games. I would have never guessed my husband would be addicted to a video game or even want to play one, but he has been having fun with the wii.

The new year will bring about a new stage in our lives as we will be welcoming in our first grandchild in just 4 short weeks. It has been different watching my own child go through the challenges of pregnancy. Her and Greg are getting ready for the baby at home. But to prepare they decided to welcome a new baby puppy into their home that Amanda got for Christmas from Greg. Yager (hummm Greg picked the name) is a brichon frise and is just a little tiny white fur ball. I think he looks like a snowball running around the house. He has been coming over and we house sit when they are at work.

It is hard to believe my two week vacation from work is over and I need to go back to work on Monday. I was just getting used to sleeping in and getting so many things done around the house. On this vacation I got these projects done and several others started. I finished the dark leaf quilt I had started about 10 years ago. I am so excited to FINALLY get it done. I also made a rag quilt for our living room and I made one for my neighbor who just had a baby.
