A New Year's Resolution Early!


I have been extremely busy the past few months trying to make alot of my Christmas gifts. I have definitely made a New Year Resolution early-I will be starting in January making knitting or handmade gifts. I never seem to be able to enjoy the holidays because I am frantically making things, especially knitted things. I have also decided that I will be buying gifts for people all year through and a few small things for stockings, etc. during the holiday buying season. I feel better already just saying that is what I'm going to do! I am really going to try my hardest to do just that!

Hope everyone has a great day!!

    Yes... I often say that too, and get caught up in the dailies of the current month so I tend to put it off.

    I think you'll be successful... I can hear it in your 'voice'!

    Lori, by all means join me!! I am really going to do it this year! Of course, I will always have last minute jewelry orders but not the pressure of getting my knitting and other handmade gifts done. We need to really enjoy the season!

    Although I love making things time of year, if I feel pressured to complete gifts, then it is no longer fun. Great resolution, Sherri!

    Maybe you should do a monthly post to record your process and to encourage more of us to do the same.

    I promise myself that I'm going to do this each year but then I never do. Lol.

    Good for you! It sure is a hectic time and I'm beginning to feel the pressure growing.
