2011 definitely had its ups and downs. Our biggest blessing was the arrival of our baby girl and every day with her seems even better than the last. As with every year I make resolutions but this year I have decided to make goals for 2012, rather than resolutions. Much like every year, my first goal is lose weight and get in shape, this year however I have a goal weight in mind, am making myself work out 5 days a week and plan on keeping track of what I eat everyday... I weighed myself this morning, ugh, and don't plan on stepping back on the scale until January 31st!
My second goal, learn how to use my sewing machine. My mom bought me a sewing machine for my birthday a few years back, yes years, and I have yet to make anything except a very lopsided apron that I am not proud of! I also hope this gives me the creative outlet I have been looking for!
Lastly I need to learn to not compare myself to others and be happy with what i have. How easily I forget about how blessed I am. Instead of being thankful that I am able to only part time, I get angry that I cant stay home full time. This year I plan to count my blessing every night, show my husband how much I love and appreciate him and enjoy all the good times rather than dwell on the hard times.
Did you make goals/resolutions for 2012? Do you have a game plan to stick to them this year? Here is to a fun fabulous new year and meeting every goal we made!!
(PS, like the look of the blog?! Thanks Nikki!!)
