New Year Fill in the BLANK!

1.   New Years is  a time for new beginnings. Yes, you can say it is just another day to continue on your current path, but why think of it that way. You have the opportunity to say this year I plan to do THIS differently. It is up to you to make it happen :)

2.   One of my New Year's resolutions will be to find a full time job. I have to do this! Anyone know of any openings in the Atlanta, GA area?! :) ... blog networking... haha

3.  A New Year's resolution I've made in the past was to lose weight. Isn't it always? Until I reach my goal weight, which will hopefully be in 2012, this will be a resolution of my LIFE!

4. The most time consuming resolution I ever made was  the losing weight one. You have to put in a lot of effort. It does not come to you for free!

5.  This year I will be spending New Year's Eve  figuring out what I want to do on New Year's Eve. Honestly, I just want a relaxing night at home. If I were a party animal, which I am not, I still have to work Sunday!

6.  If I could wish one thing for my new year it would be  to accomplish new things that I will be happy to say I've done.

7.  2012 is going to be  amazing. That's what I intend to make it for myself and hopefully those around me anyway!

HAPPY NEW YEAR

Fill in the Blank Friday Holiday Edition

1.   The holiday season is  a special time for family and friends where you show those around you love and appreciation and think back on what has happened the past year. Oh AND a time to eat a lot of food, celebrate Jesus, give (and maybe receive a little too), and to watch sappy Hallmark movies.

2.   Snow makes me happy and scared. Living in Georgia, you don't see snow often, but when you do, you stay off of the roads if possible, because 1. people already drive crazy down here, and 2. our cars are not equipped for that kind of weather! However, I love love snow!

3.  The best comfort food to eat when it's cold out is  tomato and basil soup with grilled cheese sandwiches. Yum!

4. Winter is the best time for  wearing flannel pjs, using your snuggie... or both, cuddling with your puppy while drinking tea or hot chocolate and watching a good movie!

5.  I can hardly wait for  next weekend, when I'm making... hehe or persuading the boyfriend to help my find a perfect tree and then my mom and I decorating it!

6.  When it comes to holiday gifts I prefer to  spoil those I love. I spend WAY too much money during this time of year. I also love that where I work participates in the giving tree and I am always in charge, so I spend so much on the family we get to make sure they get what they need/want! However.... I do love a to be spoiled a little too!

7.  If I were to rate my excitement about the holiday season on a scale from 1-10, I would say I am at about a  9... it would be 10 if I did not work in retail. People can get so mean this time of year. It baffles my mind how they act, because most of the time it does not change the situation in their favor and they live angry and I'm left frustrated. BUT there are more happy people than grouchy, so I still love this tie of year!
