Happy New Year !!

Sorry, long time no post! 2016 was quite a difficult year, with little time for myself unfortunately. I do intend to TRY to get more "me" time this year. Two of my dear friends went through chemo for breast cancer and are both, thankfully, recovering. I have been working on my own since March. I didn't realise it , but it has taken its toll, I am recovering from shingles that appeared almost as soon as I finished work at Christmas.

I am going to try to post monthly here ( I have two blogs, with this one being more personal, and the other more creative).
I will also try to post weekly at least, on my other blog.
My personal goals for the year are:
to try to have more "me" time, not just so I get the chance to create and read but also as my job is consuming and often stressful, to keep me healthy.
I intend to drink less coffee. I stopped drinking coffee after 4pm last year , I want to cut down to 3-4 cups per day and drink more water instead.
My menu planning went a bit to pot by the end of last year- I intend to get back on it as it creates less waste.
I want to look into better ways to sell my jewellery - not sure about the Etsy shop as I sold more on Facebook this year. I would love to make enough to help pay for a second week in Cornwall in the Summer.
I don't do diets but need to eat more healthily - more fruit and veg- less pastry and sweet stuff.
Being more organised is a constant and on going especially with my lot as they don't organise them selves. IO will continue to write everything on a weekly planner so I know, where they need to be and how they are getting there and also how much they need each day.

Do more of the same I expect.
watch this space !
