Recipes, Relatives, Crafts and Cards

My Life in small town USA!
Well, it has pretty much taken me all day to get this blog up and going...such as it is!
Please be patient with me as I take this journey one day at a time! I love my life...it's not perfect, but it is what it is! I am passionate about my faith ( my husband is a minister of a small, rural church), my hobbies, (stamping, quilting, reading, crafting and cooking), and my family! Hence...Mimi's Circus! I have four of the cutest grandbabies that you have ever seen! I am blessed with the most amazing, funny, supportive friends. I can't wait to share them with all of you! I struggle with finding time to do my hobbies and since spending time on the things I enjoy doing is one of my New Years Resolutions, I thought this blog might keep me on track! Well, here we go folks!

My New Years Resolutions!

First of all, I downloaded an app for my iPhone/iPad called Goalsmith. It helps you stay on task with your goals. I love lists, and I love mAking goals. And most of the time, I acheive my goals...I write them down and read them and update them daily. I know ghis may sound a little OCD, but it works for me! So, I thought I woud share with you a list of my goals for 2012!

Enjoy life more doing the things I love, such as spending time with family and friends, stamping, quilting, reading and crafting! Last year was all about service to others and I feel a bit out of balance!

Send one thank you note/card each day.

To be less wasteful.

Plan meals for a whole week

Save money and pay off bills.

Get my house organized.

Make my bed every day! Am I the only one that doesn't do this?

Start a blog! Woot! Woot!

Try one new recipe each week.

Be on time for work and church...something I really struggle with!

Ok...now I feel completely vulnerable to all of you! Here I am...warts and all! I do basically just want to live my best life! I'm not going to try to tackle all of these at once, but I will periodically give you an update on my status! Feel free to share some of your New Years Resolutions with me!
