For those of you who don’t already know the girls and I have pneumonia and I’ve been offline pretty much for two weeks. And since I didn’t do a 2009 wrap up post or Resolutions post etc I thought I would gather some of my favorite end of the year posts, as of tonight when I put out a call for links. Here’s a look at what the Internetz have taught me this week:
Barbie Thumbelina doll sets have been known to cause major chocolate intake and too-big Tu-Tus do nothing but take up space. The toy maven tells us some of her biggest toy-fails for 2009.
Jessica reminds us that we serve an awesome God who gives us the chance at a fresh start daily with his loving mercies. Be sure to read this and be inspired and reminded of God’s precious mercies.
While I didn’t set a bunch of resolutions this year, I did spend some time brainstorming goals for my blog (more on that later), life, family, and church. One of the main things we are looking to embrace this year is the value of play. Good old fashion playtime with the girls.
Thanks to Childhood101 for getting me to thinking about 5 words to define and focus on in the coming year. For me the words are: Focus, Family, Faith, Memories, and Faith. Each of these words represents an area of my life I want to focus and work on in 2010.
My friend Kelly reminds me that 2010 is going to rock! and to be specific about my blog goals. Kelly has inspired me to focus on consistency and read more BOOKs 
Another of my personal goals is to read through the Bible this year, but my girl Tara is blowing me out of the water and inspiring me with her devotion to journal her journey through the Bible in 90 days! She’s also planning on losing 100 pounds this year (wow! You go girl! I know you can do it!) and pay off 1/2 of their debt! Awesome and totally attainable goals for the new year!
Amber welcomes 2010 with a great list of personal, spiritual, financial, and bloggy goals with us. Amber also shares a goal with me: to write/publish/sell an ebook this year…though I just have to figure out what I have to say anybody wants to read…
Ya’ll know I love me some Geek, so I had a great time checking out GeekDad’s 12 Geek New Year’s Resolutions. I love his ideas on going green “geek style” and I’ve already started with the indoctrination of our children. Seriously. Little Geeks in Training I tell ya!
And finally Amy, who is always Resourceful, shares with us her favorite Resourceful posts of 2009. My favorite is the one about the minimuffins!
I’d love to keep reading! If you have a post that you think teaches us something, feel free to share it here! You never know it might make it on next week’s Things I Learned from the Internetz…

I didn’t know you had pneumonia, either! I hope all three of you are feeling a lot better soon.
I will definitely keep you updated on my Bible reading. It’s going great so far (even if it’s only day 2). You can read it in a year, for sure!
