Refreshed and Gettin’ Ready
I have to say that January 2010 has been a rough start for me but this past weekend my family and I spent 3 days in Pigeon Forge, TN in an awesome cabin. The cabin had ammenities that we don’t have at home like a hot tub. We had our two boys with us who are 5 and 2 and we spent half our time in the hot tub. Of course it was like a warm swimming pool to them…they loved it and have deemed it necessary to have one at home!
While in the mountains I vowed not to think much about work and I did not take my computer. I was able to check my email once using my husband’s computer (he had to take his because this was a business trip and we joined him for once). I did get on my personal Facebook account just to update my status and see what was “new”. Other than that day I was free from technology and let me tell you it was certainly freeing; refreshing even.
I’ve taken January “off” to make changes, to get ideas on paper so they can be completed as actions. So as you visit us daily, weekly or even hourly you may notice subtle changes in both our blog site, here, and our main site at www.sweetexpressionsllc.net . I’m also taking January as an organizational month to get geared up and de-cluttered for the 2010 year.
I do have to tell you that even though I left all computers, and to do lists behind there were driving times when my mind was racing and gathering all these new ideas for this year. What I can bring to you, offer you and how I can change Sweet Expressions to be your gift giving source whether you’re a do-it-yourselfer or don’t have enough time to be the thoughtful person you want to be. Each month we will provide you with great tips for the next holiday in the blog, in our weekly newsletter and on Facebook. For the do-it-yourselfer you’ll be able to take the idea and just run with them…those of you that need a little more time will have a short cut version but the people you are crafting or gifting with/for will not know the difference!
I know you’re probably looking for some great Valentines ideas and just sit back because we will be churning out some great ideas in the next couple of days and we won’t stop until Valentines Day is here!
Keeping it Unique,
Kristal
