I am pretty sure everyone in the blogging and crafting communities is very familiar with Ali Edwards and her "One Little Word" concept. Basically instead of a list of New Years resolutions that for most end in failure before we get to the halfway mark, you pick One Little Word! That word will represent anything and everything you want to pursue in the coming new year.
I first began to participate in 2010 and I posted the words I wanted to represent those first few years here on My Perfect 10. Then life got in the way and even though I still picked a word I never got around to sharing them or a lot of other things from those years. I am hoping this year is going to be different!
For 2014 my word is...
There are so many little things I would love to change...eating better, exercising more, not being afraid to try new things, finding ways to stress less, budgeting our money better. That list could go on and on! ;) Plus we may have some BIG changes coming for our family this year and I want to be able to take them head on and enjoy the adventure! I know it won't be easy but I am actually looking forward to the challenge.
How about you...Do you make resolutions or have you picked One Little Word? I would love to hear about it! :)
I love your olw for the year :) looking forward to hearing more about it throughout the year :)

Jenn!! There is a comment box here today. Yeah, I can comment!! I am more of a "one little word" person, too. Last year it was "simplify" and we did. Sold our big house and gave away so much furniture and stuff... so much stuff. It is a freeing feeling! And we will continue this year to do the same. We are selling (today!) one of our condos, and have moved to a little rental while we decide about selling the little cabin we have been living in. Yes, simplify. It's good. SO looking forward to seeing your creations in the coming year!!!

Hi Susan! Thank you so much for stopping by and trying to comment again! I thinking in all my updating this past week I must have checked the wrong box...oops! I am happy to see all is working again. :) I think your OLW "simplify" is a great one and I wish you luck with all the changes you have coming this year too!
