An Awesome 2005

OK - since everyone else is blogging off about their new years resolutions - here are mine.

1- Write on my blog more.

2- Make an apartment cleaning schedule (and stick to it!)

3- Go to curves at least three times a week (preferably, tuesday, thursday, and saturday)

4- Possibly spend the $10 a week and go back to WW (sense a pattern here?)

5- Finish the two short films Alex wrote.

6- Go to Europe by July, California for Jan 1, 2006!

7- Get a reasonable sized savings together (well, but if europe and california are in the picture....this one may have to dissapear quietly)

8- Do more things that make ME happy (painting, playing my cello, writing, hanging out with my girls, meditating on all things Disney)

9- Similar to Teresa - I am going to visit my family a bit more often.

10- Spend more quality time with Alex (and i'm sure he knows what I mean by quality time...we're going to watch more movies!!)


Things i'm giving up:

Beef (not taking any more chances. all these mad cow stories are enough)
Coffee (i can hear the gasping now. Seriously, my addiction will be cut in half, if not 3/4. i've found the wonders of tea, and I can use skim milk in it!)
Crappy TV (if i find myself sitting in my livingroom, hitting the button looking for something good to watch after 10 minutes of scanning, i'm going to get up and work on one of my resolutions.)

A mountain to tackle, you say. But I don't think so. I figure these aren't "real" resolutions, cause I thought of them a few days before New Year's. So they hopefully won't be failures.

I've already almost got the entire apartment clean. I've ordered healty food from Fresh Direct (greatest...invention...ever). I'll hopefully be seeing the Aviator with Alex tonight, and I'm posting my first blog of the year.

Nothing like a bout of strep to re-evaluate your life.

Stay Tuned!
