Welcome To Wordless Wednesday At Create With Joy!
Quote Of The Week
Make New Year’s goals.
Dig within, and discover what you would like
To have happen in your life this year.
This helps you do your part.
It is an affirmation that you’re interested
In fully living life in the year to come.
Melodie Beattie

Thanks Jay – I’ve been fortunate to find a place to keep my parties running but you’re right – it is extremely difficult to focus in a different environment!
Now that the holiday season is past, I hope to be up and running again soon!
Oh yeah, computers are such things – – –
With us was the cat, what was heavy injuderd on Christmas Morning and we had many concerns – the first goal is, thar she stays healthy (she is on the way)…
Happy New Year

For many years I have not made ‘resolutions’, but rather assessed the preceding and made decisions about what to aim for improving in the new one. This year, that is my writing discipline. Looks small when put in print like that – but I think you may appreciate it contains big possibilities!!! Hugs to you for 2015 and hope the pooter gets sorted soon. YAM xx

Writing is a fabulous goal and no small thing to aspire to – I wish you all the best and encourage you to share your ponderings, possibilities and fruitions with us throughout the year at Inspire Me Monday! 🙂
so sorry to hear about the computer.For me that sort of thing happened few years ago due to a virus.that time I was sad because I lost my photographs…
Happy Wednesday!

says:
Thanks Amila! I am lucky that I did a back-up at the beginning of December so I an only down a few week’s worth of photos and materials (still, a lot but it could have been a lot worse!)
I lost a year’s worth of photos once that was SO heartbreaking so I feel your pain!
Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to you too Merlinda – hope yours is off to a fabulous start!
Fried computers are absolutely no fun. Hope you are back up and running soon.

Thanks Kate! I hope to be fully up and running in the next few days!
I love the video with the kitties! The Russian Blue on the left hand side reminds me so much of my beloved Gia who is no longer with us! She was such a sweet and precious soul. It made me miss her! Thanks for hosting Wordless Wednesday!
Wishing you a beautiful week!
Much love,
Lysa xx
P.S. I’ll be back once we go live with the Oh My Heartsie Girls Wordless Wednesday Link Party if that’s okay?!?
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
So glad you liked the video Lysa! So sad you lost your precious Gia!
Look forward to seeing you once your WW party goes live! 🙂
Sorry about your computer. I love the idea of picking one word to guide you, I read a book about that recently. I am torn between “effort” and “focus”. I basically want to give my full attention to all my inpportant relationships and the blog/writing.
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
I love the word focus – that seems more positive than effort!
Best of luck with your goals – great intentions for the New Year Ellen!

Happy New Year! I’ve been struggling with setting resolutions and goals and ended up setting a theme for the year ‘No More Excuses’. I have a number of health issues I’m dealing with and they’ve been limiting me to an extent but I need to find a way forward.
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
A theme? I LOVE IT! No More Excuses ROCKS!
I’m sorry to hear that you are dealing with health issues.
Feel free to write me if you’d like to chat as I know what this is like and I am happy to share thoughts, resources, encouragement –
Or just listen! 🙂
It has been forever since I have visited but I am so glad I did as my furry friend is still here. I did not know about the computer but I hope you found a new one you like. As I also had to get a new one and it is a love hate relationship.
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
Happy New Year to you Glenda – so glad you are back!
Hope your computer relationship is more love than hate!
Too bad about your computer – mine, too, needs a new hard drive and I am calling around. Happily the always lovely Patti lets me use hers when she is not working. I look forward to computer independence again…
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
You don’t really realize how integral those tools are to your life until you go without them for extended periods of time!
Hope you are independent again soon as well!

Oh no – fried computer, that’s not a good start to this year. I guess it can only get better 😉
Good luck!

Here’s hoping that the year looks up after this inauspicious start Claudia! 🙂
We are so sorry to hear about your computer hard drive. 🙁
We hope your new year is off to a great start. We’re going with “joy” and “learning” as our words for this year. 🙂
Thanks for hosting! Happy MEW Year!

Awesome choices! So glad to hear that I”m not the only one who wants to do dual words! 🙂
Hi Ramona!
I hope you had a good Christmas. 🙂 Mine was nice with all my kiddos home!
I love the video!! My cats could use a couple of those resolutions!
Glad you’re back up and running.
Happy New Year!

How are the sweeties? Did Santa bring them lots of goodies?
So glad you had a wonderful Christmas! Just got up tonight – still have to get some files copied over tomorrow – but I can’t tell you how GOOD it feels to be back in my own cozy, creative corner!
Happy new year to you!!

Thanks Gattina! Hope the new computer is healthy for a LONG time to come!
My only goal for this year is to have it be better than last year. There was too much death and sadness in 2014. I am ready for more joy!

You and me both Bethany! Here’s too a HAPPY New Year!

I am so sorry about your computer, I have been there and it’s definitely NO fun at all! Hope you had everything backed up and didn’t lose anything!
I read an article ages ago about setting your yearly goals for your birthday NOT on New Year’s Day as your birthday is the onset of your ‘real New Year’ that always resonated with me, so I didn’t goal set for the first, but I am re-assessing all the things that worked and didn’t work in 2014 so I can be ready for my birthday goal setting time! Thankfully I have until April to procrastinate! LOL
I linked up, Happy New Year, and Happy WW!

Happy wordlesswednesday to you – and thanks as always for hosting. Here’s to a healthy and happy 2015 http://detoutcoeurlimousin.blogspot.fr/2015/01/january-days-in-limousin.html
I have chosen a word! It’s reimagine. 🙂 Hope you get your computer issues fixed. Happy New Year!
Gorgeous portrait photo! Happy New Year to you all. Good luck with getting your computer up and running again. 🙂
What a bummer but hopefully you’re up and running once again.
Fantastic video and I always use the phrase… Seize the Day!
Thanks for hosting and I hope your New Year is going great ;D
I meant to type that cat video gave me such a giggle… thanks ^..^
I really must either slow down my brain for my hands to catch up typing, or speed them up. I’m not sure which would be best!
We made some New Year’s resolutions. They are on our sidebar. We hope that kitty gets Grumpy Cat to smile. XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
Important reminder, it isn’t just the resolution, but the actions that make it happen.
Look so majestic!
Thank you so much for the great Wordless Wednesday link up!
Ughhhh! What a bummer about your hard drive…I can soooo relate. I was in a doctoral program and I cannot tell you how many paper I lost due to these issues – several hours of rewriting this meant! I hope you resolve your problems soon!
My goal is to do! So far, so good. Happy New Year!
Your cats are beautiful! Are they Maine coons? I have a 15 pound Maine coon named Lilly who is the head of our home. They are such special, loving beings.
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
Thank you – yes, my cats are Maine Coons and your Lily is a gorgeous princess!
Maine Coons are the best. I hope you’ll share your photos and stories of Lily with us each week at our party! 🙂

Gee, I thought Magellan & friends was making the video but then realized it wasn’t. Too cute though… Thanks for sharing. Have a great week! 🙂
Happy belated WW and New Year! Also, happy New Computer! Here’s hoping for minimal technical problems, this year.
Happy New Year

Thanks – Happy New Year to you too!
We can relate. We lost a hard drive in October and another in December. 🙁
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
Wow – I feel for you! We are still knee deep in computer repairs!
Happy new year to you! Hope you’re year is off to a great start, hopefully with new computer at hand. I have lots of blogging, writing, and art dreams I plan to make reality in 2015. So far, I’m off to a very slow start, but will get there.

Happy New Year Leah! It’s not how you start but how you finish that counts! 🙂
