Et tu, Brutus?

Yes, I've joined the blogging community. Not so much to let you know what I am up to (who really cares?), but more for me to be accountable.

So far in 2011, I have broken every resolution I made: diet, exercise, housework, crafts & projects, and budget! Ugh!

My new year is starting today.  Lose pounds by October by modifying my diet and getting exercise. Need to do at least 2 hours of housework a day, not counting meals and laundry. Tackle my 40+ boxes of UFO's (UnFinished Objects). Use what I have and don't buy any more crap (uh, craft) stuff. WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE SEW EXPO IN MARCH, since I skipped the Creating Keepsakes Scrapbook Convention and the Sewing  Fair, both last November.

With that said, I've got a new Pandigital E-reader from my husband for Christmas. After some Googling, I discovered it can be hacked to a I-Pad-type device! It's been hacked and apps have been found for a diet and exercise tracker, an expense tracker, an inventory tracker, grocery shopping list and some craft apps.

My Palm Z22 organizer needs to be updated with my housework schedule and I need to figure out how to create my inventory lists in Excel and import them into my "Lie-Pad".

I've blessed my home this morning (see FlyLady.net) but that only took 30 minutes, so another hour and a half to vacumn, dishes from last night, mop kitchen and put away the junk on my table.

Then, on to scrapbooking Kevin's baseball from 2000-2010 because it's only a month until the 2011 season! That will take care of 2 boxes!

Clutter, be gone!
