i hope that sweetness reigns.

small goals seem appropriate, and attainable. here are some of mine:

to take at least three photos a week that i am really happy with.

to leave california at least once. i realized recently that i haven't left the state since i returned from italy in 2004.

to become familiar with the sewing machine and make something from the fabulous denyse schmidt book amber gave me (thank you so much! can i begin to explain how much i love it? no, probably not.)

to be more careful about what i eat. i need to eat more vegetables.

to write at least two things i am proud of.

to fix the toilet paper holder.

anyone out there have anything interesting you're thinking of resolving for the new year?
