Last day of the year...

It's almost time to ring in the new year, reflect on the past year and make resolutions for the year to come. Here goes...

When all is said and done, 2012 could have been worse. It wasn't my favorite year, but I did learn some very important lessons. I am going to try to be mindful about all the things I learned and work them into my resolutions. I have a wonderful, supportive and loving family and great friends - I will never take that for granted. I know that it's very important for me to take better care of myself since I didn't do such a great job of that in 2012. 2013 is a chance for a fresh start, though.

For 2013, I resolve to...
1. Exercise more regularly (I signed up for a yoga class - starts on Jan 10th!)
2. Eat more healthy meals. No, really, I will.
3. Do one thing every day that I SHOULD do.
4. Do one thing every day that I WANT to do.
5. Communicate with family & friends more frequently.
6. Read more.
7. Write more.
8. Find a job.
9. Get a dog.

Now #9 isn't a slam dunk because I have to convince Ron that I really need to have a dog. Not sure how I will accomplish that but I'm working on it. Any ideas?

Anyway, I'm grateful to have the opportunity to share these resolutions with you. Like I said, 2012 could have been much worse!
Happy 2013!
