3. Rang in the New Year by myself. Hubby works nights, so I am used to it.

4. Went to see National Treasure 2. Nick Cage is sooooo cute.

5. Worked on my new blog. It’s all about New York. The web address will posted on all my blogs as soon as it is ready.

6. Decided to go for a new look, so I’m letting my hair grow out a bit and doing a coppery demi-tint.

7. Got really bad service and food in a new local restaurant, and decided to do something about it. The manager was evasive, so I began calling the managers of all the other locations. One put me through to one of the partners who gave me the personal cell phone number of the owner. What can I tell you  - I get that way sometimes.

8. Spent New Years Day photostrolling.

9. Got myself a new journal for the New Year, but haven’t had a chance to write in it. It’s been really busy for me the last two days.

10. Decided to give up red meat meat and poultry for the New Year. Have been off caffeine for a few months, and chocolate for a month, it’s making a big difference in how I feel physically.

11. Bought myself a couple of really cute bags. This doesn’t mean I’m using them though; my trusted blue bag is still hanging from my shoulder.

12. Got a big bag of clothes together for the Salvation Army.

13. Have a wonderous New Year!
