Waste Not, Want Not

Happy New Year!

I stopped making resolutions a number of years ago and instead have just tried to look at each new year as a fresh beginning to just do better all around.

This year I would especially like to follow the theme of "waste not".

It always bothers me to throw food away or to buy so much fresh produce because it's so healthy and looks so luscious in all it's colorful healthy splendor, only to pick up the dripping carcass muttering something like "what on earth???" as I throw it into the trashcan.

Impulse buying tends to lead to a lot of waste so I will try to cut back on that as well.

Wish me luck.

Time. I don't want to waste or fritter away precious time. I want to glean as much out of every minute as I possibly can.

Effort. I want to be more directed in my efforts.

Opportunity. I want to seize more opportunities this year and not be complacent.

Finally the other "waist" I want not! I hope to get back in better shape.

 I would like to thank everyone who has visited my little blog and maybe commented or written to me privately, for welcoming me here in blogland! The new friendships that have been forged this year are especially dear to my heart! Thank you for being here!
