2011 Goals and Resolutions

1. (if work approves the 1 day off I need) run my 3rd Half Marathon in Vegas with my oldest and dearest friend Amy.

2.  Meet up with my dad and brother in Pittsburgh in a few weeks for the AFC Divisional Playoff game.  Airline tickets- check!, hotel room- check!, game tickets- working on it.

3.  Eat less, work out more...I am hoping to aid in this by a) writing down everything I eat and b) getting to do number 1.

4.  Keep the air clear between me and my husband.  I have been super frustrated with him, with me, with everything as of late- and on Friday- it all just poured out of me at him.  We cleared the air and hopefully together we can keep it clear and resentment free!

5. Buy a house.  I feel like this is always on the list.  Any list: stuff I want, stuff I don't have, goals just out of reach.  Good new is, by procrastinating for so long, we have a killer down payment.  :)

6.  Pursue my creative side more.  I am often stagnate and this is the year to fix that. 

7.  Write more letters.  For real, with paper and pen.

8.  Improve my handwriting.  I have awful penmanship.  I failed it in 6th grade.  For reals.  I downloaded some tools off the interwebs that will hopefully help me develop a signature and penmanship I'm not embarrassed by!

9.  Go to Alaska.

10.  So far in 2011 I've read 2 books- start to finish.  I'd like to keep up that pace, but don't think it'll work- but I plan on reading at least 30 and keep track of what I read.

11.  See all my nieces.  I'm just getting to know my 2 youngest- and they blow me away with their humor and smarts.  I hope to see all of them in 2011 at least once!

  1. I love your goal of the number of books to read. I think I also need to keep a list - I know I read a lot, but I never remember what!
