So much of what appears to be news right now is really just marketing. New Year’s resolutions are big business for many. Some even seem to be shaming those that don’t go along. I will freely admit that I have no desire to come up with a list of New Year’s Resolutions. I figure that if I need to make a change I should do it when that desire makes itself known and not wait until January. I have been known to set a Word of the Year — I’m not sure about that this year, either.

So you might ask where I’m going with this. Well, I want to put it out there that it’s OK to go your own way. If you feel that this time of year is the right time to make a change then please do it. If you feel that the new year is the time to hibernate, then get out your fuzzy blankets. I will be here, working on my house, cooking supper, a little sewing and weaving, and maybe even going for a walk. Once spring is on the way, I will be out in the garden, too.
