New Year's Resolutions

Well it is day four of 2011 and I am all ready not doing so hot in the keeping up with my resolutions department. I decided that I must put them out into the world first, so here it goes:

#1) Eat breakfast every day! I have all ready failed at this as I only ate breakfast on the first. I really need to pick up some things from the store that I can grab and go. The problem is that I don't get up early enough to eat breakfast. I guess I should make a resolution to get up earlier but I tried this in the past and it just doesn't work for me. Eating breakfast every day will give me more energy, help balance my diet as long as it is healthy, and hopefully help me drop some pounds which leads me to resolution......

#2) Drop 40lbs. I will not even start exercising until the spring so lets not get started on that until the temperature goes up a good 20 degrees.

#3) Rid my life of toxic relationships, I don't need the extra drama and stress, if it isn't good for me I just don't need it and they will soon be seeing and hearing much less of me.

#4) Get a new JOB! Enough said.

#5) Get back to giving. Volunteering use to be a big part of my life and I have really fallen out of it so I picked a project and I will be working with a very small new Nonprofit cat rescue helping them with their fundraising. I love animals and they need my help.


#6) Take time for me every day, I use to take much better care of myself, do the little things like care for my skin a little better, do my nails every week or just soak in a tub. I am going to blog every week instead of journaling and I am also going to try to meditate. I have never done it before but I think it could be good for me to try. The hard part will be finding a completely quiet place to do it in!

So that's it, I am hoping I can at least hit half of them.
