Salena from Canada

the new year has to count for something and I seem to “talk” about what I would like to do instead of making a plan to get it done.

The storage room has always been a "junk" room with computer,craft stuff, boxes...and alot of mess.

I've always wanted to have my own office...you know...painted, with nice shelving (I still have a new printer not hooked up yet!) and a little corner to do my scrapbooking etc...what's stopping me?

The motivation to get it done!  I think I will "cash in" some favours and ask a friend to spend a weekend to "make-over" my storage room.....
  If already taken some "before pics" and my goal in the new year is to take some "after" shots to see the transformation!

Any suggestions?

Well I finally have my sweet cat PARIS… She’s a calico-tabby.

It took me two visits to find her…she is truely a DIVA cat who loves nothing better than to keep me company (incase I have the urge to rub her tummy!!)
I got her May 24 weekend. The Humane Society told me that she was found wandering a local park (which is down the road from where I live!) They think that she was abondoned by a family cuz she was already fixed.

She's adjusted well so much that she loves looking at herself in my full length mirror...what cat does that!!

I am considering getting another cat next spring.We will see.

all my siblings look great (and they’ve had kids!!) I don’t have any kids and people think I do!! So I need to really buckle down and loose a little weight.
Every yr. my mom takes a family group picture and I always look like the one who ate the turkey!!!! lol.
And I hate it…want to change it. This will be the Christmas I am hoping to thin down.

Since I started using “green products” this past month. I feel so much better in my home. It smells and feels cleaner than ever. It is definately worth the extra dollars to know that I am not contaminating our drains and the air. What a difference!

this will be a hard one to do…my dad is 75 y.o. and in good health. I think it’s always been hard to get his approval/love in anything I say or do….sometimes I am really mad with him.
And then there are times I know that I will regret that I never got to say what I wanted (good or bad) before his time ends.

maybe I need to write a letter…..not sure yet.

What a great way to celebrate and appreciate all my friends in my life! Why wait for a special occassion to do this!
Let all my friends mingle and laugh. I want them to know how much I value thier friendship in my life and for travelling this journey with me all these years…

I would love to have children that need a home and lots of love. There just aren’t enough people to love them all.
