First of all, I hope everyone had a fantastic holiday.  Secondly, I hope that the new year has started off well for all of you.  Thirdly, I'm baaaack!

I'm writing on the fly today.  I didn't have anything prepared for today, but I am ready to get back to blogging after my (so very lovely) break.  I had a lot of time to just be after Christmas was over and it was much needed.  I watched a lot of TV, I read a little, and I surfed Pinterest a lot.  The break gave me a chance to decompress and start thinking about what I wanted to do for the coming year.

I am not a resolutions person.  I fail at them-every. time.  However, I have found that if I make a list of things that I want to accomplish in the year to come, that works out better for me.  I try to be reasonable and I try to stick to things that interest me.

However, this year looks like it may be a bit different.

I have been creating my list for the past couple of weeks and there are things on there that surprised me.  I think it's because I am starting to become more insightful.  I have some simple things on there (read 20 books) and some that are more complex like establishing a yoga and meditation routine.  I plan on doing a much more in-depth post later this week on my goals for 2014.  I do have some exciting things under wraps for this year and I can't wait to tell you guys all about them when the time comes.

I've also been working on goals for the blog and I can't wait to share those with you all as well.  While on Pinterest, I have been looking at all kinds of blog things and I have gotten some really useful information and some great ideas.  I plan on implementing some of the things I have found in the coming months and am anxious to see how well they go over with you all.

This was really just a "Hey, I'm still alive!" post, but be watching Facebook this week for new post announcements!

Have a great Monday all!
