Our Wonderful Years...

Over the course of the average lifetime you meet a lot of people. Some of them stick with you through thick and thin. Some weave their way through your life and disappear forever. But once in a while someone comes along who earns a permanent place in your heart.

Brown hair, brown eyes. When she smiled, I smiled. When she cried, I cried. Every single thing that happened to me that mattered, in some way, had to do with her. After all, she was my girl. And I knew that she understood that in some small way my achievements were her achievements.

Resolutions!

In the spirit of trying to actually keep resolutions,...I thought that I would post them to see if helps me.

Here goes:
  1. Get to target weight (for wedding and honeymoon) by exercising and cutting some calories (read: Chocolate).
  2. Update my budget. I have a loosely based one, but I think its time to ramp it up a bit.
  3. Try to read one new book every two months. Even if its an older book, I'd still like to be reading more. Especially in the wake of the writers strike. There is nothing on tv.
  4. Get into a yoga/pilates class.
  5. Do a movie a month with my girlfriends. This is what I forsee actually happening instead of a book club.

So here are the measures that I'm taking to fulfill these goals:

  1. Bought scale. Weigh in once to twice a week. I really need to start tracking it in a journal though... I need to create a schedule for myself on what kind of workout and which days.
  2. I need Steven's help here. I have done nothing...
  3. I made myself a little wish list on www.amazon.com this way, whenever I'm looking for something, I can just click and see what I've already bookmarked for myself, then just click to put it in the cart and PRESTO! Book on the way!
  4. I have scoped out some studios...but I'm looking for suggestions. I really have to do the whole "class thing" because I just can't be trusted to actually "do" the dvds.
  5. I'm working on a list to hang on my computer. In all actuality, this is where I notice it the most and I'm more likely to send out an email and plan something if this is the case. Need to get to work on it. First pick is 27 dresses with Katherine Heigl!! Yaya.

If you've got resolutions and you want to share 'em, put them in the comments!

Here's to the new year!!
