Happy New Year!

Happy New Year and welcome to The Placidity Project!

Hello my name is Chanel-Nimone and this is my first time writing a blog.  I have recently come to a crossroads in my life and because of some recent changes I am on a quest to gain a sense of peace in my life.  Every New Year's I make these goals or New Year's resolutions and eventually I get off track and by the end of the year I end up writing the same goals and the cycle continues. Well this year I'm going to try something different, I've seen many of those 100 days of happy challenges and I've started some but didn't finish so for 2015 I am going to do 365 days of Happy.  I am going to acknowledge at least one thing in each day that makes me happy.  Within the past year (I'm a teacher so I think in terms of school year so last year would be 2013-2014)  I started reading blogs and going on pinterest and this opened up a whole new world for me.  I started trying new hobbies (Sewing, DIYing, and Crafting), looking at my living space differently, becoming really reflective about my life (I'll give some background info in a future post).  I have so many varying interest that you will see a number of things on this blog.  If it contributes to my happiness and a more placid life than you will see it here.  So if you happen to stumble upon my little space on the web I hope you stay awhile and join me on my journey towards placidity:)
