4. Always keep a pizza in the freezer.
5. Don't go to Express Oil Change to get brakes fixed.
6. Pinterest rocks.
7. Buy chicken from Zaycon.
8. Words with Friends is lots of fun. (Thanks, Alec Baldwin.)

10. Never leave a dog unattended with a fire in the fireplace.
Plans for the new year:
1. Blog as much as ever.
2. Finish making quilts for the book.
3. Turn in book manuscript according to our contract.
4. Get back to work on the block-of-the-month quilts I started this year (before I got sidetracked by the book!)
5. Finish furnishing the condo so it will be ready for Elizabeth in August.
6. Walk more. (I have this plan every year. Maybe this will be the year I just do it.)
7. Read more.
8. Beat hubby at least once at Words with Friends.
9. Eat more brussels sprouts.
10. Keep calm and carry on.
What are your plans for 2012?

Hi Julia - Sounds like you've got a good game plan for the new year. Hopefully 2012 will bring less health issues for you and your family. My goal is more quilting and blogging. Joined an FMQ pattern of the month with Sew Cal Gal, so I expect to improve my FMQ skills. Happy new Year!
