Ok, so I'm a few days late on welcoming in the new year, but we just got an internet connection.
2014 cruised in rather sedate, then ended up being fairly
eventful in the last few months of the year. I quit my job (very out of
character for me, but I did for really good reasons that I will not go into
here) I got engaged, I got a new job across the country, and then I moved…from
Arkansas to Washington state! I also bought a 33 foot RV to use as our home in
WA (rent is insane!!!), and so moved again from the hotel to the RV. I have to say, the year ended pretty
stressfully, but 2015 looks promising!!!

I don’t do resolutions. I hate setting myself up for
failure. :-/ I do like to set goals, however, and one of my big 2015 goals is
to save money! That is where living in an RV is going to come into play. It had
a good size startup cost since we sold a lot of things off before we move from Arkansas
and had to replace some of those things in some form or fashion. That got me a new
vacuum cleaner though -- Shark Rocket detachable vacuum with a pet hair brush! That
should help with cat hair management.
How is it that cats’ can shed what looks to be their entire
coat, and not be bald??? It’s another of
life’s mysteries, evidently.
Another goal for 2015 is to get my new home organized, and
keep it clean! I use to keep my house
clean, not white glove clean, but I never worried about unexpected visitors.
Then I got a job that did its best to take over my life, and I gained my Honey,
and my house took the brunt of the neglect. At least there is not going to be a
huge house to clean!
Getting myself in better shape is also something I need to
address. As I get in the grove of my new life in the Pacific Northwest, I want
to make sure to put aside time for walking or other exercise. One problem I am
faced with in the winter months is that it gets dark around here at 4:30!!!
Talk about short days!
I hope you have a great new year and meet all of your resolutions
or goals! Take care!!!
