The start of a new year means rededicating yourself to whatever dreams, goals and objectives you want to achieve. For me, a new year happens twice annually - fall, when school is back in session, and Jan. 1. This year, my New Year's resolution is to attempt to establish realistic goals that I can reach over the course of the entire year, or at least that is my overarching commitment to myself.
As 2018 draws to a close, I decided to review my analytics to see which of my posts were most popular this year.
The holidays are an extremely busy time of year for me, as they are for most. Between buying all the gifts, decorating, preparing for special Christmas Masses at church and attending all the kids' activities, it can get downright stressful! As an Italian, I also have the tradition of baking Christmas cookies. Each year we do anywhere from six to eight to 10 different kinds, which takes hours of work.
Those who know me well know that I'm extremely organized. At home and at work, I'm usually the one with all her ducks in a row. I truly believe this is the only way I can juggle being a wife, mom, manager, professor, friend and colleague. Since the New Year is really right around the corner, I'm reminded that for many, it's a time to renew commitments to being organized.
Cheers takes on a whole new meaning as we experience the new world of all-star cheerleading.
