Have you made any new years resolutions yet?

by Tricia

So folks, have you made any New Years Resolutions yet? Are you going to keep the ones you make? I’ve made a few and I think that I’ve found a way that might help me keep them. You see, there’s a site on the internet called 10millionresolutions.com and when you visit that site they give you the opportunity to post your resolutions online.

It’s quite simple really, and I think it’s an interesting idea. They hope to change the world- one resolution at a time. All you need to do, if you’d like to post your resolution is go to the site and fill in the line that says “Enter your resolution and receive a free goal setting tool kit”. Just click on that area and type in your resolution. It will then take you to another page where you’ll be asked to fill out your name and email address. Just confirm your information by email a very short time later and you’ll find that you’ll have been given a free 3 day, 2 night vacation on them, plus they’ll give you a free goal resolution tool kit and a free t-shirt too once you’ve completed their 9 question survey. It’s fast, simple and as you can see – rewarding.

I listed my resolution but I don’t see it just yet. My resolution was to kick this illness and get healthier. That’s something I really need to do, but I’m afraid that it will take a little more than resolve to fix me up.

As of right now they have 601,085 resolutions and I believe, given the name of their site 10 million Resolutions that they are hoping to eventually list 10 million resolutions. Why don’t you come up with a great resolution that you can do and post it on the site.

Anyone get any gardening gifts?

by Tricia

Well, Christmas is over, and for those of us that celebrate boxing day, well that’s over too. Did anyone receive any garden related gifts this year? Pruners? Garden tools, plant seeds, winter blooming bulbs or a nice houseplant? Maybe you got some software for your computer so that you can design your next garden makeover? or some garden related DVDS or books?

I’d love to know what goodies you received.

Me? No I didn’t get anything garden related. Actually, this year, since I haven’t been working due to my Crohn’s we decided to not get gifts for ourselves or even for our adult relatives and friends.

Everyone understands and we don’t mind. After all – Christmas isn’t about the presents is it? We’re the type of people that get things for others at any time of year “just because …”. You know, we see something that someone we care about would like and we get it for them, and well, I guess we do the same for ourselves too. So as long as we can afford it and it’s not breaking the budget you might say it’s Christmas all year long.

However I would love to hear what kinds of items you got for Christmas or the holidays. I can live vicariously through your gifts. LOL

Gardening Tips forum created at GoBoardz

by Tricia

GoBoardz is a newish site where you can go and create your own GoBoardz Forums absolutely free of charge. GoBoardz is sponsoring this post so that I can tell you how to create your own free forum for your website.

It’s very easy actually. You just visit the site, create an account and then go to the forum set up area. Some of the things I like about the forums at GoBoardz is that users can upload photos or link to ones on other sites. Members can also have avatars to uniquely express themselves when posting on the boards. If someone creates a really good post on the board you can even save it to Del.icio.us or Digg it.

So I went ahead and created a forum for gardeners and I called it Gardening Tips. I’ve only created one category so far – General – but if you’d like to sign in and begin a topic that would be nice.
