Dear Tea readers and achievers,
We're here once again. Thinking ahead to the new year and personal goals. What if anything did you do to change the way you do things to achieve your personal goals, (*if you follow this thread you'll know I have virtually stopped using the word resolutions) I now only use personal goals not because it gives me an "out", just to make it feel somewhat more achievable. I make simple lists of two to three items that are achievable and then when the three things are done I will write down another 3 things list.
This helps me. How about you? And what's on your list?
My first thing is: to clean out two of my kitchen cabinets that while I was baking for the Christmas holiday, i could not find my baking pan until I literally rummaged the cabinet through! I have over time ridiculously shoved things in the cabinet making my life cluttered and it is unnecessary as I have places for the things. So I will correct this immediately first thing.

Make a good pot of tea. I try weeding through things daily; it's a losing battle.

Hi Mary, your idea of just having 3 things on a list is great as it's a lovely feeling to be able to cross off a whole list of accomplishments before having to consider the next 3. Talking 'tea', I continue my hunt for a decaffeinated tea that tastes great without milk or sugar. Happy New Year! Joy

Dear Joy,
Happy New Year to you too! I used to overwhelm myself and then feeling very unaccomplished, my list would evaporate into thin air. This way I feel a true sense of accomplishment, even if it is just 3 very small things.

Dear Angie,
Oh, this was so me! I would feel very bogged down by things, now I try to eliminate the stress by completing only a few things at a time. I try to have one very important thing and then 2 less important but "fun" things on my list, like cleaning something small, (i.e. junkdrawer, or craft room organization) this way I AM actually getting things done, while not stressing over it.

Happy Spring Tea Readers,
I'm about to embark on my spring/summer walking fitness program. I start out slow and definitely pick up the pace and within the month's time, I have fluffed off the winter's hibernation. What/How are your fitness goals? Are you pushing beyond and how do you cool down?
As soon as it gets warm and dry enough after I have done my morning walk, I love and really enjoy sitting on the patio listening to all the sounds and enjoying a cool iced tea.
Happy Spring...Happy summer to be and Happy goals for you and me! Mary Caliendo Tea Editor
