In 2015 I made a resolution not to buy any new clothes for the year and I actually did it!!!! (Can you believe it?) This was really the first time I’ve ever made a resolution and to be fair, it was only a semi-resolution. By mid February I realized that I hadn’t been clothes shopping and was talking to a friend and she mentioned that this was her resolution. So mid-February it became my 2015 Resolution.
Somehow I don’t think that’s how it’s really supposed to work, but it worked for me and that’s what counts. Not buying any new clothes had several benefits: I saved time and money! I saved time that I’d otherwise be wandering the stores shopping and I saved lots of money.
We all know who benefited the most from this: my MuttButs! I had extra time to spend loving on them and extra money to buy them more treats and toys. Somehow in the end they always come out on top!
For 2016 I thought I would continue the same resolution. I took a week off and bought myself a nice purple (of course!) purse as a reward, but other than that, I know I can keep it up for another year. Riedi & Margi agree – they want more treats and toys! Of course, Riedi & Margi always want more treats and toys.
I especially like interactive toys that work their mind and body. Today, our pets are often bored, under-stimulated, overweight, and lack the appropriate environmental enrichment necessary for their health and happiness. That’s why my MuttButs resolution is to get fit and luckily Dezi & Roo’s January Special is 16% off lots of interactive toys so they can work their mind and body.
What were your resolutions and did they somehow involve your MuttButs?
Crock Pot Christmas Gift from my MuttButs
I think I may also resolve to cook more…. Now you have to understand that cooking is one of my least favorite things to do, well except for cleaning, but that’s a whole nuther story. My MuttButs bought me a Crock Pot for Christmas so that I could cook in my sleep and the food actually tastes really good! They know less time cooking and cleaning in the kitchen means more MuttBut time. I’ve cooked lasagna, roasts (first in my life!), sweet potato casserole, pumpkin bread, chicken, oatmeal and much more! Maybe one day I’ll post some easy recipes for you so you can save time and have more time for your MuttButs.

Ha! Good for you for sticking to your goals! I don’t make resolutions because planning that far ahead is not my thing, but goals are great! Mine involve not eating too much ice cream and spending way too much time online. :/ Not sure how the ice cream part helps my pets, but the online part is obvious!
Hope you continue to enjoy the crock pot! I love mine! Precious dogs!
Thanks! I am definitely enjoying the crock pot. Making meals every week & no eating fast food!
Sounds like your dogs are pretty lucky! I have a crock pot/pressure cooker combination and I love it, because truthfully most days I don’t think about cooking dinner until it is nearly dinner time.
They are very lucky dogs! They might be Mutts, But they are 100% SPOILED!!
