Bye, Bye, 2016!

I had this lengthy post nearly ready to go, detailing the highlights of our year. All I had to do was sort out photos to insert into the post. Apparently technology hates me in 2016, because I seem to have lost the whole thing. I probably just didn't hit save when the Peanut pulled me away to read a book about cars for the 87th time. 

But that's okay. Because you really didn't need to read all about my year (do you really care about the mundane stuff in my life?!) It's about to be in the past, in only a few hours! And I don't know about you, but I am looking forward to saying goodbye to 2016, and welcoming a new year. And instead of detailing all of my resolutions and goals right here, I'm going to write them into a planner.  

So far my only resolution is that I'm going to plan more stuff. And write it down. Plus just write in general, which I have been doing. I 'won' NaNoWriMo again this November and although my novel was laughable (and not because it was a comedy) I'm proud of myself for sticking it out and getting another 50,000 words done. 

Plus I've been contributing regularly to the Chattanooga Mom's Blog.  You can read my latest post about my love of traditional snail mail Christmas greetings here. And for any of you soon-to-be-parents, you can read all about how not to break the bank here. 

If you'll excuse me, that planner is calling, not to mention the Peanut. 

Happy New Year! May 2017 be amazing for you!
