Today was one of those not-much-got-done Saturdays. It really affects my mood when not much happens on Saturday. And since its the first Saturday of the year I’m doubly annoyed. New Year is always such a downer to me. It always has been. I think I just wish we could stay in the sparkly buzz of Christmas a little longer. Every year it whooshes by faster and faster. One thing I did accomplish was putting all the Christmas decorations away. And I took the children for a walk. Getting outside is always helpful, and seeing my children run and play is always so fun. So in an effort to try and lift myself out of my New Year depression I think I’ll write a list of some of the things I have to look forward to this year… I like lists.
1. The conclusion of Masterpiece Theater’s Jane Eyre tomorrow! *Ahhhh, now they are doing a Jane Austin complete works series…I’ve died and gone to heaven!
2. Asher’s birthday this month, he’s turning 6!
3. Getting baseboards put back on our house.
4. Making something pink and sweet for Valentines Day.
5. Getting my new vacuum in the mail.
6. Having ceiling fans in all the rooms for summer.
7. That short period between winter and spring where the weather in NC is perfect.
8. Longer days.
9. All the sweet milestones Hannah will reach this year. First roll over, first tooth, crawling, maybe even walking!
10. Having all my kids home in the summer!
