New Year & New Look

Happy New Year!!!

A few a my cold remedies - Kleenex with lotion, chapstick,
NyQuil, fresh juice and a good book.

I have spruced up the look of my blog for the new year. I'm also going to be sprucing and amping up the content. I started this blog to be a place where family and friends could catch up on our lives. Well, it will still be that place. You'll still able read to about our adventures and misadventures. I'm also going to expand my content to the other areas that I'm also passionate about - creativity, organization, technology, leadership, keeping things simple. Be sure to follow my blog or put my url in your RSS feeder so you can keep up to date with the content.

How did you ring in the New Year? What are the goals that you are looking to accomplish this year? How are you going to make 2013 the best year ever?

Lots of questions! It's a new year - got to kick it off right. I started my new year off with a nasty head cold. I watched the ball drop while downing two tablespoons of NyQuil. Not my ideal way of ringing in the new year but what can you do. Luckily, the kids are sick too so they don't mind all the snuggles and watching lots of cartoons. 

One of my favorite Christmas gifts this year is going to help me with my fitness/health goals in this new year. It's my Breville Juicer that was given to me by my very generous husband. I've been hoping all the delicious juices I've been making would help my cold but no luck so far. I can definitely see how people get addicted to juicing. With the right juicer, it's so easy to do. I did not realize how delicious it would be to drink cucumbers, carrots & celery. So in this new year, I'm adding juicing to my diet. No, I'm not going on a crazy juice fast. I just want to see how it can help and change my body, skin & mind. 

That's one goal for this year. More to come. . . Happy New Year!
