Happy New Year!!!

Well New Years eve was a good laugh! 

My house always seems mad when we have guests, it makes my boys that little bit crazier than usual. I'm glad we were at home as I would probably have been stressing so much about the level of excitement (like mega hyper) and the noise. It's always nice when you are surrounded by people who know your family best, none of that pretence crap. Crazy Carol Cake and I have compared our challenges and I was pleasantly surprised by the similarities.

My challenges are a mixture of longer and short term goals, doing a bit for myself and for others. I may need some help and recommendations on the way, so feel free to drop me a message... I am going to try to keep a journal too, so that I have pictures and reminders of my 365 days along with any other memorable moments. 

Here's to 2017, may it bring plenty of good health and happiness!!
