I’ve never been big on resolutions, but i think 2012 is going to be a big year. In order to get the most out of this coming year I’ve outlined seven items that will go a long way in making me feel that 2012 was a success.
1) track our finances - im tired of not knowing how much we have left in our budget, i need to put on my big girl pants and take some control
2) exercise regularly - 2 times a week bare minimum. and hit the pool regularly. Why am I denying myself something that brings so much joy? I ache for the scent of chlorine to linger on my skin again
3) stop drinking - I’ve discovered what people were so crazy about in college, its time to reign that back in
4) finish the house - wrap up all those little straggling things on the house
5) create more - i’ve given up enough evenings to sitting in front of the boob tube. time to feel accomplished outside of work, and have something to show for my time.
6) hang art - our house really came together in 2011, its time to make it home. That means paint, print, frame, hang art that makes our place shout ‘US’.
7) volunteer - its a small thing, its outside my comfort zone, its easy to dodge and avoid. but setting aside time to do something for others should be made a priority.
