So yeah. It's THAT time of year again. You know where you make promises to yourself on what you want to do or not do anymore. It lasts about a month. So you think why even try? Well I'm going to try. I seem to be a bit more motivated this time. Probably because I need to keep my mind focused on other things for now. I'm keeping them to three things. I figure I can keep track of three. And they are probably the same three I made last year. I know. Anyways, I'm putting them here. And I'm going to try to keep up on them and post about my progress weekly. Maybe this will help me keep it up a bit longer. Being public about it. So if you want to share yours, join in! I'll try to update once a week or so with my progress.
1) Lose weight. (surprised?!) I want to lose 35 pounds. And I'm focusing for now on five at a time. I did it last year, so I know how to do it. I lost a good chunk and gained it all back with severe depression. Plan is to plan my meals a bit better. And get in exercise more often.
2) Save money. I'm down to my pennies these last few months due to dental bills and other things. I did get a piggy bank for my birthday. And I throw all my coins in there nightly. It's a start to my regular savings. I'm hoping with the 2nd job (I'm waiting on a phone call for confirmation!) I can start to save a bit now.
3) Get out more(this is the FUN one!) I used to take the bus into LA and the beach areas. I am pretty creative with lots of fun free and relatively cheap things to do on my own. I need to get back to that! I don't want all my time just work and home. Of course I pick the cold time to start doing it. But oh well. Better late than never!
And that's my list! What's yours?
