JANUARY 2014

Wow! 2014

Where oh, where did you come from

January 2014?

I can not believe how fast time is going.

Why it was just yesterday it was 2000

We are 14 years into the Millennium. . 

Is that possible?

I don't know about you, but I am always

Just a little frightened of the New Year.

Oh, it is just me.. . .that dare pessimist comes out,

Instead of looking forward to the new year with all

The prospects of a happy life and new horizons.

I become fearful of what challenges the new year may hold.

I am the person who cries when I take the

Christmas tree down, and box the decorations away.

You see, I have had many years when the new year was very

Frightening, and I have had so many changes, some good and some

I wish I had never gone through. . .But. . I am a woman of Faith

And I know that no matter where the road may lead

The Lord is by my side and will take me there and help me adjust.

So. . .My goal for this year of 2014 is to be more optimistic. . 

I want to be happy!

I want to look at each new day as a new adventure in life.

Even if I do the same things . . .it is still a new day.

I want shed the weight of worry, and fear. . 

Worry and Fear are the opposites of 

FAITH.

Two simple goals. . (keeping it simple)

Be Happy

Have Faith

We will see how that works out for me. . (wink, wink)

I am looking forward to a new year for my little blog.

I started this blog just for fun. . I wanted to meet new people

It has been a joy. . .

Though I don't put as much time into my blog as I should.

When I started over 4 years ago, I wasn't working.

Now I work full time, and have had many changes in my life.

So my little Karie's Chic Creations. . gets neglected quite often.

The blog has gone through a few changes. . first I wanted to do

Crafts and DIY. . that was a lot of work and creative energy.

Then I focused on my home and my decorating style. . 

That has been good, but my decorating is nothing out of the ordinary.

I am just a simple ordinary person, who loves to decorate on a budget.

I like to change things, and rearrange things, I like to make old things look new.

I actually think I am more of a . . . oh, more of a woman who likes to create.

So, if you follow me,  please continue, and if you are new, please come back.

I will keep moving forward, one day at a time.
