Normally I am not one to set “goals” for the up coming year. No “New Year Resolutions” for me. I am simple. I am boring, and most days I am just happy to putter along. I make lists. I make plans, but with life the way it is I don’t usually set goals and definitely don’t make resolutions.
THIS YEAR IS DIFFERENT!
THIS YEAR I am setting multiple goals; some will be hard and others will be easy.
I have decided it would be wise t0 share my goals for 2016 with everyone, ask them to motivate me and help me stay accountable. (Yep, there is that word again. You will see it a lot at Treasured Tidbits in 2016.)
I will be sharing updates on our goal progress, as well as sharing tips and pointers on how we are accomplishing some of them. Such as saving $5,000-$10,000 while paying for two newly installed wood floors, paying off multiple medical bills, controlling the chaos we call paperwork and a house, and getting a handle on our health.
I hope that our ups and downs, tips, tricks, and mistakes may inspire you as well.

What could lead to this extreme desire?

I wrote this poem shortly before my grandfather’s anticipated passing and decided to share it on the one year anniversary of his death. It doesn’t even begin to share the love, guidance and faith he provided our family with, but it did give me a way to vent my emotions during a trying time. There isn’t a day goes by that Grandpa doesn’t come to mind, visit my dreams or whisper in my ear (not always so quietly). He was a an important part of my life and left his mark on so many, in both our family and community. I realize this is a bit off the path of my usual posts, but this post and poem were written for me and anyone who knew him and wants to remember him and the AMAZING man he was.

Yep, it has been a REALLY slow week on Treasured Tidbits again this week and as I shared on our Facebook Page I will be reducing the number of posts shared here.
I will continue to share both holiday, seasonal and household crafts projects and a few updates on the changes in my home but I will not be following a regular schedule.

Take The Leap
As anyone in my family will tell you, I am not a big risk taker. I do not make large purchases, investments or decisions without tons of pre-planning. It takes me days to adjust to even the smallest change and my perfectionism requires things to be perfectly symmetrical, or I become the Grinch.

My “Text” To Grandad
This post is nothing fancy, just something I wrote this morning after having a breakdown in my car when my hubby asked me who I was texting.
I was texting my family in Florida, but I wanted to smart-off “Heaven, so I can talk to Grandad”.

Yes, we are back FINALLY!
For those of you that don’t know-May was a very hard month for us. We had a few highs and a lot of lows.
This post wont have any crafts, decorating or thrifty ideas; instead it will be very personal and share the changes that are coming to the blog as our life changes (hopefully in a BIG way).
The good news is, I got to know our insurance company and their support team better than I ever wanted between the fire in March and the car accident at the end of May (don’t worry besides bruises and aches everyone is ok).
Both of these occurrences were actually blessings in disguise.
