- Be better at money...spending, saving, etc. I have a love hate relationship with money and debt. It's been something I've overcome in the past, but feel like I need to put some energy here.
- Be better to myself...cut some slack. Treat myself to something substantial (shoes, clothing) each month. I sometimes spend money on useless stuff and usually have nothing to show for it.
- Take my lunch to work more often...along with the money issue, it gets expensive to eat out and can be a major drain on my bank account. My plan is to pull $20 out on Monday for lunches for the week rather than relying on the evil debit card!
- Get moving...do some sort of movement everyday. Even if it is just walking Archie around the block, I need to get my body moving.
- Cook a new dish every month...I love to cook and it is my way of expressing my creativity. I want to branch out and try something different.
- Make connections with friends...make the effort to get together more regularly...even if it is a coffee date.
- Reaffirm my relationship with God...not sure what this ultimately looks like, but really make the effort. D and I say grace before all of our meals...continue and expand that in some way.
- Really and truly figure out the jay oh bee situation...do I stay? I always keep an eye out, but I think I need to make a real change. That situation wont ever change and I can't wait for 2 years until my boss retires for something to happen.
- Connect with D...make the effort to be present when we are together. We have a good relationship, but I think we forget to "date" and make the time for each other.
- Help the family dynamic...it's a difficult thing to deal with, but I think for Meema's sake, we need to strengthen it. Cousin and I have chatted about this and being the ones to lead the charge.
- Blog more...it's a good outlet to share what's happening.
I think this is a good start...look for updates periodically...a blessed and prosperous New Year to all!
