The thing about Christmas is, while it is my favorite holiday, when it is over, I am OVER. IT. DC and I spent some time this weekend taking some of the decorations down, getting the apartment cleaned up…we’re ready to move on.
My favorite time of year, though, is January. I love the new beginnings, the fresh start, the motivation to be different in the next year than I was in the last.
This morning I was just thinking about the changes I want to make, the things I want to do, the way I want to be this year. Break the monotony. Although my life this year has been anything and everything but monotonous. Marrying DC has flipped my world upside-down and I love it. I love thinking I can do something and having him there to tell me I’m right about that. LOVE. IT.
I hate to call these resolutions because the first thing I think when someone says resolution is "sure to fail”. Do people ever keep them? Like, 2 years ago, I told Rhonda that my resolution was to wear more bracelets, and I don’t think I’ve worn but maybe 5 in the last 2 years. FAIL.
I am getting my list together…my list of changes and goals and anything but resolutions. Some of them come from my list in October. Some don’t. I think I need to edit that list too. I’m excited.
What’s on your list?
I love to hear from you…your emails, your comments, your messages on facebook. Love them.
Happy Monday everyone!
Sounds like you had a great year. I loved looking through your year in photos, too.
ReplyDeleteI'm trying to decide what I wanna do about a list for 2010. I tend to do better with monthly goals, so I'm leaning towards doing something like a 2010 focus (or focuses). I feel like this could help mold my goals for the month and keep me on track. I don't know though, I looked at my list for last year (on my sidebar of the blog) and I realized that things change. Some things were stuck to, others were totally thrown out the window. Oh well.
Looking forward to seeing what you come up with.
