2010 - Happy New Year

Here are 18 random rules of life worth posting on your mirror or, better yet, using as dinner-time discussion starters:

Find the lesson in every failure, and you'll never fail.

The likelihood that you're right is not increased by the intensity of your conviction.
Real friends help you feel worthy and make you want to be better.
When you're in a hole, stop digging.
Don't confuse fun with fulfillment or pleasure with happiness.
Refusing to let go of a grudge is refusing to use the key that will set you free.
Hating hurts you more than the person you hate.
Counting on luck is counting on random chance; your odds are much better when you plan and work.
It's better to be kind than clever.
Don't underestimate the power of persistence.
The easy way is rarely the best way.
It's much easier to burst someone else's bubble than to blow up your own.
You can't avoid pain, but you can avoid suffering.
Self-pity is a losing strategy; it repels others and weakens you.
Shortcuts usually produce short success.
Control your attitude or it will control you.
It's more important to be significant than successful.
The world is waiting for you to heal it.

Holidays are Finally Over

Well, thank goodness the hustle and bustle of the holidays are finally over and 2009 is coming to a close. I am looking forward to 2010 as a brand new start. I haven't decided on any New Years Resolutions yet.....I want to be sure to choose carefully this year so that I can actually keep to them.

I just wanted to write a quick blog since I haven't written in a while, I'll be back soon and post some pics of the great cards that I made with Judy at Stamp Camp and with Denise.
