A new project for a new year.

I’ve created a new and separate blog that I will be maintaining in addition to Avengers Tower. Although it’s of a more personal nature, the new blog is something that everyone who’s interested in is invited to follow along with. The new blog, called “A Brand New Mii” will chronicle my follow-through for my New Year’s resolution of losing weight — and my experiences of doing so by utilizing the Nintendo Wii and the Wii Fit/Balance Board.

I’ve added a permanent link to the blog to my blogroll on the right hand side of this site, or else you can click the link below to find it:

Have a safe and happy New Year, everyone!
