A Resolution!

I know, not exactly an original title for a post this time of year.  But I really mean it.  No, really!  I even looked up the word to make sure I know what I am getting myself into. 

From dictionary.com-  "firmness of purpose, the mental state or quality of being resolved"

This was the 4th definition and it was my favorite.  I like that idea- firmness of purpose.  It sounds so confident.  I figured posting about my resolution here would help me to firm up my firmness of purpose.  Once something is written down, especially out here, it seems more real.  If I say what I am going to do it's one thing.  If I put in writing I have to back it up.  Firmness of purpose, out in the open, for all to see.  And by "all" of course I mean me and the poor,bored soul who has made it this far into my post.  So maybe it is more like a diary entry that anyone could potentially happen across by accident.
I just realized after all this blabbering I haven't even mentioned my resolution.  Oh well,  this may be a letdown but I am really excited about it. 

I am going to make something new every week and chronicle my progress, discoveries,  ideas and mishaps (which I am told are wonderful learning experiences, though many do not feel so wonderful while they are mishappening) Not an original idea but one I am excited about. 
So, here goes....wish me luck (she says to herself and that poor soul mentioned earlier). Good luck-says herself
