So Far? No Different from Happy Old Year

It's a New Year and I suppose I'm required to make some kind of statement of purpose.

Like, I intend to loose the same 18 pounds I've lost every other year of my life.

Or that I intend to exercise every day until the Second week of January by which time I'll have forgotten all about it.

Or that I have every desire to quit cursing, dammit.

Or that I wish to really apply myself to taking better care of my heart, soul, mind and body except for the part where I fall in love with vastly inappropriate males, completely ignore going to church, read crap novels, do NOT study improving literature or the Newspaper and binge eat every chance I get.

In the meantime, while I'm still hashing out potential self-promises of disaster, here is what I did yesterday.

I took this old decrepit tray
And gave it a Shiny New Coat of Paint.

And that's the kind of 'Newness' I can enjoy!

The tray looks lovely! Last night I dreamt that I went to a yard sale and found beautifully hand-embrodered tea towels. I woke up this morning and was so disappointed not to have those towels. I love to have "old things" in my life.

You are so crafty! Even if your new adventures fall apart and flop sometimes. (gingerbread men can be eaten in pieces)
Where did you find that tray? I need to learn some of your ways. It would save me a few dollars I think.
