Hi Everyone,

Monday morning my family and I woke up almost 3 inches of snow on the ground.  It was beautiful!  Living in Atlanta snow is not something we see much of.  Occasionally, we may have a light dusting, but it's gone in no time.  During the day it continued to snow, leaving us with a grand total of 6 inches.  That's huge for us.  Schools have been closed all week due to the icy road conditions.   Even my husband had a few snow days. 

I had to laugh when I saw the Clean & Simple Challenge for the day was "A Day in the Snow".  I knew I had to play along.  Well, here it is three days later and I'm just now getting around to posting this. It's been so nice having everyone home this week.  I haven't accomplished a thing, but we've had fun.

 Monday's Clean & Simple Challenge, along with other daily challenges can be found at SplitcoastStampers.

Here are a few snow pictures.  The first picture I took from our front porch and the second is the view of our backyard.

Thanks for stopping by.

Crazy 4 Cocoa Challenge

Hi Everyone,

I don't know about you, but I always look forward to the New Year.  For me, it's a time to unwind after the frenzy of the holidays.  It's also a time to reflect, to reorganize and a time to plan.  Part of my New Years planning is to revisit my goals from the previous year, and for some unknown reason I'm always compelled to add a resolution or two to the mix, as if I don't have enough commitments already.

I believe that resolutions and goals have to be managed in order to be met.  That's why I thought a notebook for tracking my resolutions/goals would be the perfect project for this week's Crazy 4 Cocoa Challenge.  The challenge was to create something with a New Year's resolution in mind (dieting, learning something new, etc).  

I hope I've inspired you to take some time to write down your goals and resolutions along with a plan to make them a reality.
