Ramblings...maybe

So I've finished flogging myself...I'm finding it very difficult to type...I should have thought of that.

Well, we have sent off our second contract for the property!! Now we wait. The TVLB made changes to their application process just as we finally got the survey completed (about two months!!!), so we weren't able to get it in on time. Therefore, we had to complete a new application. Then the holidays rolled around, and the TVLB was closed. Are you seeing a pattern? Normally, I would be very discouraged by all of this, but a saying comes to mind. Anything that is ever worthwhile is never easy.

I am very excited about 2008!! Being a good little list maker, I have certainly made my list of resolutions!! I won't share them here, but it is a pretty significant list. I also think that there will be a lot of changes and new things!! It's will be fun and scary, but worth every second!! Yeah!!!

I have been doing a lot of knitting. I recently completed a crochet market bag. It came out much bigger than I thought. Note to self...you could carry a baby in there. Then I purchased some knitting looms. I want to be able to make little market bags that customers can purchase at my vegetable stand to hold their produce. Yet, I have only made hats. Hhhmm. Actually, I made my first hat! It was supposed to be for Doug, but I should have known he had a big noggin' and it wouldn't fit. That's okay...I know someone that it will fit perfectly! I have decided that I am going to make my niece a cute little hat instead of the bably blanket I have been working on for 5 months. I think I will actually finish the hat...maybe...

I would like to leave you with this thought...
"To put the world in order, we must first put the nation in order; to put the nation in order, we must put the family in order; to put the family in order, we must cultivate our personal life; and to cultivate our personal life, we must first set our hearts right." ~ Confucius
