Goal Setting for 2016: Herbal, Homestead and Others

Happy New Year folks! I hope you all had a great holiday season and a fun new years eve. If you’re like me you spent it doing exactly what you love; watching Star Wars (Empire Strikes Back) with my hubby and crocheting! While I’m not big into resolutions (they always seem like a set up for failure), I do like to have a list of goals for the coming year. I’m a goal and project oriented person so this helps keep me focused. I’m also a big dreamer so some of the things on my list might be a BIT out of reach but that’s perfectly fine by me. Dream big or go home!
