Resolutions

As an adult, I have not particularly been a person to make resolutions.  However, I am this year...and hoping I can keep them going!  Remember, I am removing "perfect" from my vocabulary so I don't have to keep them perfectly, just do better than I've done in the past.

The first is to eat better.  I'm picky, and I simply prefer junk food.  I'm not going to pretend to eliminate junk food from my diet, but if I can eat less, that is an accomplishment.  I'm also hoping to do better about exercising.  Again, it isn't going to happen every day, but my goal is to work out with wii fit at least four times a week, and walk on the days that I don't (and hopefully even on some days that I do).  I'm also hoping to stay on top of tasks and not waste my time on the internet (ironic as I sit here typing).  I'd like to learn to try cooking different meals that are hopefully not only healthier, but budget friendly for our family...and that brings me to the final one.  I'm hoping to really focus on the purchases we make and stay within our budget.  I know it isn't easy and there will always be things we want that aren't an option.  I am certain however, that we can meet our needs, and perhaps it wouldn't hurt to reinforce to our children the difference between needs and wants.

Now, perhaps this is a cop out, but I am actually beginning all of this tomorrow.  After all, today is a day pretty close to nirvana as far as I'm concerned, and that involves some soda pop and a little bit of sweets!

Again, here is to the beginning of a fabulous new year!
