I'm not a person who makes resolutions at the new year, chiefly because I tend to forget all about them pretty quickly, either that or try and fail (dieting), making me feel terrible. But there are two things I'm going to really work on this year. One is using what I already have instead of buying more. This includes art materials, clothing, food in the pantry/refrigerator, etc. The other is, instead of worrying about people and situations or complaining to those people or about those situations (neither of which does any good) I'm going to take God at his word and bring those things to him in prayer. If I say I trust God but can't do that, my faith isn't worth much.
I worked at the VAAM Gallery yesterday in place of a woman who needed the day off, so I made it a studio day as usual. I'm getting quite a lot done on my commissioned piece and will return soon with photos.
I hope you all have fun tonight however you choose to celebrate, and best wishes for a very happy, healthy, and peaceful new year.

Happy New Year
I too hope to try and use stuff that I already have in the studio for my crafty projects this year ....I did manage to do quite well with this as a resolution last year but need lots of new Years to clear all the stuff! I think I was a squirrel in my previous life or perhaps a magpie haha!
That seems like an excellent "non-resolution resolution" :)
Happy New year Susan - I hope you have a great 2009 :-)
