New Year's Resolutions

I thought I'd jot down a few things that I'm aiming for as New Year's resolutions.

1. Health-I'd like to be in the best physical shape of my life. I've never been a big athletic person but I've started exercising a lot and I'd like to be a better runner and in general a better athlete. I'm mainly healthy so maybe eating better will help with getting into shape. Drink less.

2. Finances- I'd like to save more than I normally do. I'd built up quite a nest egg but with the two mortgages it's slowly disappearing. Have to spend less and find ways to save money. I'd also like to sell or rent my house on Green Street.

3. Mentally-I would like to work out all my issues that have been bothering me and become a happier person. I'd like to be more positive also. Sometimes I can be a little negative.

4. Professionally- I would like to focus more on my job. The harder I work the more money I make. Need to be more organized and more efficient. Need to travel more and visit clients in Ms.

5. Relationships-I need to let some go and try to develop others. I need to learn to walk away from the ones that don't make me happy and cultivate the ones that do. I'm going to focus less on them and more on me.

6. Friendships-I'd like to spend more time with the friends I do have and maybe make new friendships via volunteer work.

7. Family- I need to spend more time with my family and plan trips to spend time with them. I need to plan trips to visit them during weekends when it's not a busy holiday vacation. Maybe some long weekends with them.

8. Travel-I'd like to go somewhere out of the country this year. I've been thinking about Europe particularly Spain for my next trip. It will depend on whether the house sells or rents but I really would like to take a fabulous trip this year. Although a trip to Argentina again would be really awesome.

9. Home-Would like to finish decorating and organizing my house. Need to finish putting stuff away and buying those last pieces of furniture I need. Also need to finish all those projects I have in the garage. Painting, sanding and arranging everything.


10. Jewelry- I need to find my muse and work on my jewelry again. Have a new craft desk and chair that should help me get there.

XOXO
