New Years Resolutions: 2012

The picture is of Sam, Ariel’s and my sister’s new baby.

Welcome to my new blog! MobileMe closed down, so here I am. I put up one post from last year about turning 30, otherwise its going to be all new stories.

I was just evaluating my resolutions from last year. Usually, I set my goals on New Year’s Eve, but Randy & I ate a tower of wings at Green Mill and I exploded from both ends…bringing the night to an early end.

Anyway. Here’s last year:

My New Year Resolutions:

1. Write three things I’m grateful for each morning in my journal.
2. Get up every weekday by 6:00am
3. Read book and go to community ed book club.
4. Read classics. Starting with “War and Peace”
5. Write on my blog once per week.
6. Attend Spin Class once per week at the YMCA
7. Do my hip exercises once per week.
8. Clean my car.
9. Quit Facebook

Three out of eight were accomplished. Not to shabby. Looking in my journal, I see that I dropped off on writing the 3 things I’m grateful for in the beginning of May. That will be a good one to reinstate.
