The productivity café (I can’t find the link offhand) suggested that people should do a New Year’s theme as opposed to resolutions. I’m going to have to disagree there– at least when it comes to me. I need something that’s measurable. When I was a kid, nothing made me happier than seeing the line of gold stars on the calendar. I have this crazy perversion when it comes to lists. I’ll write a to-do list, accomplish something that is not on the list, add it to the list. I do this just so I can cross it off the list. Hence, I don’t think a theme will do so well for me.

Simply by using the words Scientist & Lady to name your blog you send a message of your theme. You might be surprised at how well they work for you. The theme gives you direction.
