For many, the holidays are a mixed blessing. No matter how yours came and went, it is over and I bet most of us are ready to move forward. For me, that means that the next month will be spent getting the house back in order. As an OCD driven clean freak, the holidays really stress me out. It is nice to have the house back and the routine returning.

That said, this is the best time to start a new routine. With my new African Gray, I have a new thing to learn about and to train. Also, Spring is just around the corner and that is when we hope to have our new Newfies join the Ark...err...I mean family.
Toss in my new recording studio and the writing projects I have coming up and let's just say that 2015 will be a busy year. Did I mention I am going to Vegas in February to renew my vows? Yep. At the KISS wedding chapel!
So, like I said, lots to do. I have a full slate of OCR races coming starting in May, and that means upping my training routine, which really fell off during the holiday season.
So, with 2015 here, what is on your plate? Share with others any goals you have. Statistics show that it improves your chance of success! So why not share here?!
Love the new bird! And congrats on renewing the vows. I hope 2015 is your best year yet. :-)
ReplyDeleteLikewise to you on the new year. I am going into this one feeling pretty good.
DeleteCongrats on renewing your vows and your African Grey.. Since you are a neat freak here's a few words of advice on you new bird, potty training is possible and necessary. doesn't take much time as long as you pay attention to body language. Greys are smart and sweet parrots, always speak to your Grey as you would to another human being and your new buddy will surprise you more often than you can imagine.
ReplyDeleteThanks, I have heard about the potty training thing. Also, I have a sweatshirt just for handling the bird And yes, I do have some books to help me. Also, I went into this knowing that I would have to concede some of the clean. I am seeing this as therapy in a way.
DeleteCongrats on the pretty bird, and good luck on training him. Congrats also on the renewal of your vows. I read how much you like KISS and other rock bands and hope this will be epic! As for myself, I'm going to finish writing this book I thought of all the way back in 2008. You, sir, have been an inspiration for me to get off my ass and do it. 2015 might be a very good year.
ReplyDeleteThat is very exciting. Keep me posted so I can line up to read it when you are done!
