Another New Year

When will I learn?  Or when will I start being an adult??  Well, it is a new year, so let's hope that this is the year for me.


I didn't really do resolutions, but I do have goals.  Hmmm, maybe that is the difference I need?
  • Lose weight.  Yawn, right?  But, I already started the last half of last year and now it is time to add the other piece.  I have been working out regularly (3-5 days a week) since August.  I am very proud of myself and totally patting myself on the back.  Maya and I have been working out together and I am definitely seeing improvements.  The problem?  My diet.  I joined WW online right before Thanksgiving (awesome timing!) and am planning to do more of that here now with a clean slate.  Would I love to hit my goal weight (165)?  Yes.  Would I love to hit my dream weight (140)?  Hell yes.  But I want to continue to lose weight, to be healthy, to eat healthier and to get there.  To get to my goals.  So, my official "goal" of this year is to lose weight and eat healthy (specifically get those fruits and veggies in everyday!!).
  • Get organized.  Yawn again, right?  I am just so sick of being constantly lazy and disorganized.  I am working out now, taking care of my body, have my depression pretty well under control (summer is surprisingly hard for me) so it is time to GROW UP and get organized.  Which for me has far more to do with laziness than anything else.  So, I am starting with the kitchen (this sounds familiar).  Already accomplished the pantry which is terrible, moving on to the next cabinet tomorrow and so on.  And also some good old fashioned cleaning.  Starting with our sadly neglected bathroom.  I hit the regular stuff (shower, vanity, bathtub, toilet) fairly regularly, but now it is time to get that grody floor clean, too.  All of it, actually, at the same time.  How amazing, huh?  And then move on.  I also want to get my head organized.  Plan meals.  Get back to making lists.  Keep on top of stuff!  It is so easy for me to get lazy (there is that word again!) and to just let go.  Here's to HOLDING ON!
  • I would like to get the house rearranged this year.  Biggest problem there is the hubs.  He will resist it.  So, not sure if it will happen, but I really want to move his office down there, move my room to his office and SET THINGS UP.  We have also discussed putting a fireplace in this year, so I would be willing to abandon this project if it means a fp project.  We shall have to see what the year holds, huh?
Let's see how it goes, eh?
