2009 Resolutions

Well 2008 is now officially over and I have been contemplating my New Year's resolution. Usually I am so reluctant to make resolutions because I always end up breaking them and feeling miserable towards the end of the year because I never did anything to change it. This year I am at my heaviest weight EVER, even when I was pregnant I was never this heavy and I need to do something...anything to change that.

My resolutions/goals for 2009:

-GET FIT/HEALTHY: including eat right, shed pounds, get toned...not so much losing weight as it is for me to be healthy, fit, toned and trim. Like I said above, I am at my heaviest weight ever and I don't want to end up any heavier. It seems the heavier I get I seem to be getting sick a lot and more health problems. To do this I will eat better, not eat after 7pm or 6pm if I can help it, exercise, walk, cardio wii fit etc.

-PAY DOWN/OFF DEBT: We have it, lots of it!! With me going back to work this will help out of financial situation. Also, my husband's pay dates will change this year. More pay dates equals (hopefully) less taxes being taken out and also less overdraft fees... I would like to see 2009 as the year we get back on track and come out ahead!-SAVE MONEY: Because we owe money we have been living paycheck to paycheck. If we can get on a budget, get debts paid down then we can save money.

-TAKE MORE PICTURES OF MY FAMILY: I am a scrapbooker but have had all my stuff in storage for the last 2 years and because of that I cut down on taking pictures, especially getting them developed. I have the undeveloped pictures is so many places...in my camera, on my computer, and on flickr. This also includes being more responsible in getting pictures on the important days that I sometimes forget to take pictures on...birthdays, holidays etc. I am also thinking of investing in a better digital camera sometime this year.

-BE A BETTER PERSON: Lately I haven't been happy with myself. I feel like I am going the the motions and doing what I need to to get by. I want to stop that and start appreciating each day and being more happy. Being happy for what I have and appreciating everything!

-FAMILY TIME: Spend more time with my family. I would like to do Disneyland again while the kids are young and I would also like to do more camping this year and start doing fun outdoor activities like tennis, hiking and geocaching!

Anyhow, these are my resolutions/goals!!! I will let you know in 2010 how I did!!
