Where Will This Year Take Me???~~~
Well, the holidays are over and with that brings a new year. A new year, new goals, new changes, new experiences....I have done a lot of pondering/thinking over the last few days. Wondering what this year will bring me, my family, my marriage. I've decided that instead of making a bunch of goals that are supposed to last me the whole year, that I would make little goals for myself every month. I have January already completed--one goal that I'm very excited about is training for my 1/2 marathon that I'll be participating in on February 2nd. I have gone back and forth with the idea, although I've wanted to do it since having my son. I kept talking myself out of it for some reason, even though I know that I CAN do it. So I'm very excited. Along with the training, I will be VERY conscious about what foods I am eating. I will eat things that are good for my body and that will give me the "fuel" I need. Therefore, sugar, candy, and sweets will NOT be in my consumption. The reason I decided to do a list of goals for myself every month is because we tend to be VERY "gung-ho" about goals at the beginning of every year, and then as time passes, those goals tend to kind of fall to the wayside. I think goals are very important, because it gives me a challenge, something to look forward to, a way to keep myself committed to different decisions that I've made for myself, and then of course...the feeling of accomplishment always felt when completing those goals. So, here's to a new year!! I hope that it finds every happy and healthy and "goal oriented"!!!!
