and a more simplified overall look.
K I S S
Keep It Simple Silly
Changes:
Isn't that what a new year brings? We want positive changes, but we have to do our part in making the changes successful. Right!? ;)
Falling Behind:
I'd like to simplify things in my sewing/comp room, by doing a major clean out, organize projects in the waiting, line up & list all my PhDs, and get them done. DONE!!
I'll not be leading another PhD Challenge, until I get my committed PhDs from 2011 done,
and then it will be a "maybe". We shall see...
and then it will be a "maybe". We shall see...
Homemaking:
I really need to keep up with book-keeping, put more effort into my household chores, and maybe get myself to like cooking/baking again? There, I said it! My homemaker confessions... lol...
Friends:
I haven't seen many of my long time friendships in quite a while, not on purpose, it is just that time has been flying by, with our lives changing so much in the last 2 years. Two daughters married, one darling grandchild in our lives now, and more in the future I'm sure. Things just seem to change. So, more visits/outings with friends are in order...
Exercise:
Ya right!?! Not even gonna touch that one! Speaking from experience here... lol...
My Blog
Been thinking a lot about the way I use my blog, and how long-winded I get sometimes. I know I really appreciate visiting blogs/posts "with photos" and a quick read. Some just have a knack for making posts that are quick and to the point, which I've been trying out on my photo journal blog, and am quite liking it. So, I will be attempting to stick to such an example on this blog also, though there will be longer posts for tutorials and such periodically...
Time Management:
I've been spending way too much time on the comp, so I need to simplify/time-manage to fix that. I plan to limit hopping all over blog-land, a lot, and visit only those wonderful bloggers/followers that bless me with a much appreciated visit. This way, I will free up much time to be with the people I love, do my chores, and get more sewing done...
Responding to Email:
I still can't promise to keep up with my emails, cause that has been a constant struggle,
but will do my best to do better at responding...
I know this post is somewhat "long-winded",
but it is #one of my last 3 posts here for 2011.
I've got some organizing to do! ;)

love the new look Myra. sounds like a great outlook to have for 2012 :)
Love the new look and to simplify a blog is nice - as long as we can get our teeth into something from time to time, don't want you losing your personality, lol!

I too have been trying to find the balance between blogging about life and living life My blogging has not really been that successful but I love visiting others. Thanks for the update on the PhDs, I was waiting to see what you decided before I jumped in somewhere else. Merry Christmas to you and yours.
I agree with many of your sentiments...there is only so much time given to us and we have to decide how we want to spend it!Making changes by simplifying things is a wonderful start to a good thing.
The new blog look is wonderful. Merry Christmas and all the best in 2012
Looks like you got all your thoughts in order.
Stunning background!
I'm with you on that exercise stuff too :)
Wishing you a simpler and more wonderful 2012.
Well you really thought everything over. I also like plain and simple blogs. Pictures and not to much to read. And further...I wish you all the best for 2012 and I wish you a wonderful Christmas.
I like to read interesting posts, so ramble on girl! I also bought a few of those poinciana plants, they are so cheery! The blog looks fab! I may have to clean up mine too, although i dont mind a bit of clutter now and then!
