Well! I'm back and ready to start blogging again. I received a really nice laptop from my husbunny for Christmas so I don't have to worry about putting my fist through the monitor of my desktop. It got to the point where I'd get to a page and the computer would freeze.

I'm going to be doing the 101 in 1001 challenge again. Haven't decided where to post the list, here or Facebook. I have some great goals on there so I'm really looking forward to get started!

Happy New Year everyone!
