New Year’s Resolutions

I have to think that some of the most popular New Year’s Resolutions on a lot of people’s lists would be to eat more healthy, get more exercise and, of course, to stop procrastinating.  I know that last one’s been on mine more than once.

This year, though, my main New Year’s Resolution was a lot more concrete … to fire my 1^st Angel Blog back up again.  You see, back in June, I made the decision to go back to work … a real life, nine-to-five-type office job.  It would mean a lot less time for my creative outlets, photography and digital art and writing, but it seemed like the right thing to do.  So it was with a heavy heart that I took the first opportunity that came along: doing all the paper-work-y things in my own husband’s office.  I have to admit, I experienced more than a little panic at first.  Did you know that mysterious and important-looking papers can sneer and laugh maliciously?  I swear to you … they can and they do.

However, as the months went by, I was able to shush the evil laughter coming from the “’roundtoit” pile, take a few new pictures here and there, and even open Photoshop and sneak into “The Creative Zone.”

So here I am again … shamefacedly cracking open the door to my virtual 1^st Angel office, dusting off the desk and beginning again.  But that’s what the New Year is all about, isn’t it?  Beginning again?

Of course, we are already a good three weeks into the New Year … so maybe I should think a little harder about adding that procrastination thing back onto the list … ??

What were some of YOUR New Year’s Resolutions, and how are you coming with them?
