Do you make resolutions? Any unusual ones? The mister thinks I’m crazy for making them, but I love it. Am I alone?
Sleep deprivation can do many things to a person. Anxiety, mood swings, sometimes hallucinations….but it can’t put toads in potties. In the quiet hours of Saturday evening, after two little boys lay slumbering peacefully in the wilting Summer sunshine, and two furry Siberians had sought out the coolest spots to rest, a visitor unknowingly…

I am beyond excited today to be hosting what is, to me, the most fantastic prize I can give to anyone. The gift of knowledge. If it wasn’t for two very talented, highly patient, just completely lovely tutors in my life, way across the pond in the USA, I would still have my camera in…
There are three types of cold in our house. My (Momma) colds, Man Colds and Baby Colds. I’m not sure which one causes me the most pain (I’m praying The Mister isn’t reading this) but the one that worries me the most, and causes me sleepless nights, is the baby cold. In late December 2010,…
Just like Handy Manny, we celebrated Cinco de Mayo in style this year. Thankfully Mr. Lopart and his sabotaging furball Fluffy were nowhere to be found, but thanks to Discovery Foods (and the hard work of my husband at 11 p.m) we enjoyed our own mini Mexican fiesta! Since I can’t cook take any credit…
Despite the fact that this whole blog is about our family, I recently had the revelation that although I write about the things that we do, and the adventures we have, I never actually just write about us. So here it is, Just Us Joneses – my way of recording who we are as a…
My resolution is to cut down on food waste! I waste too much and my eyes are know open. Happy New Years!
We waste too much as well – what a great resolution!
I wish you all you wish for yourself in 2015 and more! Health and happiness are two top wishes on my list too. They cover a lot of territory.
Cheers!
Sara-Jayne – Happy New Year! Thanks for taking part in the six words, and for the shout-out here. I'm resolving to be more aware of where I am when I'm there – I know that sounds vague, but I hope it will help me focus on work, give all I can to my family, and strengthen relationships I have everywhere.
Hey Eli! It sounds like the perfect resolution. I know just what you mean. Looking forward to January's prompt!
I didn't make any official resolutions this year other than trying to eat healthier. I would love for my family to eat more 'real' food over processed food. I am finding though that it does take a lot of prep time! But I totally understand making 10 with the hope of seeing them through.
Oh wow, ten resolutions sounds like a ton! I usually don't make new years resolutions because I feel like the majority of the world never follows through on them. I've got vague ideas in my head of what I want to get accomplished this year- maxing out my IRA contribution and tons of work on my blog- but those are everyday things that I think about!
My resolutions for 2015 would be to be more healthy, more active, more organized, do more what of what I love, expand my horizons, experience new adventures, spend more time with family, open my perspective, clean more and to keep everything where its supposed to be. Wow there I already have 10 and I feel like there are just so many more things I can do..well resolutions are anticipated goals but I feel like I can never fully accomplish them all.
I make resolutions and for the past (I don't know how long) years, they have centered on health, fitness and weight loss. This year, for the first time ever, I don't have to because I started my healthy plan this summer and I'm very close to hitting my personal goal, as opposed to just starting it in the New Year. Anyhow, I would like to plan on being more productive in work, and focused. I am self-employed, so sometimes I get lost in the flexibility of it all…and the distractions. Also, getting my driver's license this year wouldn't be so bad. That's a usual Resolution that never gets fulfilled.
I stop making resolution and starting making goals I wanted to work on throughout the year. That way I don't feel bad when they're not done.. However, I've carried over most of the same ones I had last year.. continue to lose weight and eat healthy.. I want to save more money for my first car.. and a down payment on a place to live.. To be happy no matter what happens.. I really want 2015 to be an awesome happy year unlike 2014 which ended with a divorce.. haha
Happy New Year. I can not believe that it is 2015 already so crazy how fast time flies by. I have so many goals for 2015 i'm not even sure where to start. For one I'm starting a new business so my goals might be a little high but i'm so looking forward to what it will bring.
