A New Year, Another Adventure

This blog and my happiness project sort of fell by the wayside in April, and I can't remember exactly why. Regardless, it is a new year and I want to try again.

I have some things planned for this year - goals and such that I want to try out. I'm thinking of doing another happiness project, although it would probably be done differently than it was last year - because obviously what I tried last year didn't end up working out for me. On the other hand, perhaps if I spent more time planning it would work out? I'm not sure.

I do plan to work on my art with what I've been referring to as my "365 project" (although because this year is a leap year it is my 366 project). Each day I'm going to get a prompt in my email through something that Tene set up for me. Then I draw that prompt, or a picture relating to it. A picture each day. I'm hoping to see a lot of improvement by the end, and I'll be posting most of the pictures (if not all of them) to my deviantArt account.

I'm also planning on working on my sewing (I've considered doing something crazy like a dress a week or something - but I think I'm going to stick to something more like a dress every month .... a bit more manageable), and crochet. I've really come to enjoy crocheting, and I like making things for my friends. Plus, crocheting gives me something to do with my hands when I watch shows with Tene, which is a relief.

I want to be more social this year, go to more things. I've been really missing some of my friends back in Utah, a lot, and it would be nice to fill some of that gap with new friends. Not that anything can replace my old friends, but ... well ... it would be nice to have people to socialize with and talk to.

There are others, but I can't think of them now. I'll post a full "Resolutions" list tomorrow or in the coming week.

Happy New Year, may 2012 be the best year yet.
