New Years Goals
Happy New Year! I hope everyone celebrated responsibly and had a blast bringing in the new year! I know I did.
But now it is time for the obligitory NEW YEARS RESOLUTIONS (or goals) blog post.
This is the first time as an adult that I have actually sat down and thought about what I would like to accomplish or achieve over the coming year. So here goes my list:
1. Lose 10% (or more) or my body weight. I have signed up at
Dietbet to take part in The Tranformer. Basically I am betting that I will lose 10% in the next 6 months. I am hoping that tis will help with my accountability towards this goal. In an effort to be supportive of this goal A chroí has purchaged me the FitBIt Charge and the Aria scale. I'm hoping that you will cheer me on as I reach my fitness goals.
2. Get a library card and read 52 books this year. Looking at that number it seems so small. I used to read that many books in a summer. In middle I even got a couple of trophies for the number of AR (accelerated reader) points I had. NERD ALERT. Lol, I used to love reading, but somewhere along
becoming a Creative Writing/English major I lost my love of reading. Not to say that I don't enjoy it anymore, I do. But it's no longer the first thing I think of doing when I have free time and want to unwind.
I did get the library card and my first book yesterday. I am currently on page 36 and entering into the cuisine of China. YOu can follow me on Goodreads.
3. I would like to complete at least one blanket this year. I have not yet decided if it will be a quilt or crochet, or knit. But, and this may sound selfish, I am going to keep it for myself. I have never made anything for myself. This year I am going to.
So that's what I am working towards this year. What about you, any New Years Resolutions?
