New Year's Resolutions 2008

Everyone at my house is feeling better now, so I had a chance to sit down and think about my goals for the new year. Here are some that I have come up with so far:
  1. Read one chapter of the Bible to Drew and Gracie each day.
  2. Get organized. Simplify and de-clutter. Establish some household routines. Teach Drew and Gracie to help out with some simple household chores each day.
  3. Add a few more formal preschool-type activities for Gracie to our daily routine.
  4. Read a book each week.
  5. Find something that I can do from home to earn some money.
  6. Reduce my sugar intake and eat more healthy foods.
  7. Blog more often!
I think that will keep me busy this year! Now that I have my list written down (in a place I can find it!) I'll be able to look at it every now and then to see how I am doing.

I have no idea what I will find to do from home to earn some money ... so if you have any ideas for me, I would love to hear them!

Hi there!

I just thought I'd drop a note to let you now that the title of your blog has already been used, and I see so many blogs now calling themselves "The Mommy Blog" that I'm contacting folks to let them know of the pre-existing blogs to cut down on confusion and cases of mistaken identity. Also, I get about five Google alerts a day whenever another "The Mommy Blog" publishes and it's hard to provide accurate stats to my advertisers and representatives on that basis. For instance, if you were to type in www.themommyblog.com, you'd get my site. I've been TheMommyBlog.com since 2002, and also Mommy Confidential, and Wonderbelly.

I wish you luck and happiness in blogging! : )

All the best,

I'm sorry that I did not take more time to consider the title of my blog. I've changed it now. Best wishes with your web sites.
