New Year 2011

Well, the new year is upon us. I've decided to make some resolutions and hopefully stick to them. First of all, I will make it a priority to go to the gym and work out. I've gained way too much weight in the five years I've lived in Vegas and it's time to lose it. I've got my 20th high school reunion coming up and I am not going to show up looking like this:/ Yuck! I don't even recognize my own face. 


Secondly, I need to change my eating habits. This goes hand in hand with working out I know but my hubby and I both need to change this. Maybe checking for diabetes was a wake up call for him. Now we need to plan our meals and stick to the plan. If we both eat healthier then we should both feel a lot better and not like such slugs. It can't hurt my kids either, though their both already nice and thin. Lucky girls. 


Third, finally finish writing one of my novels, find an agent and try to get it published. I have four great stories, all possibilities for an interesting read. I've procrastinated long enough. I also need to look into freelance work. I've thought about it, dreamed about it and been too much of a chicken to go after it. How will I ever know if I'm any good at it if I don't try to reach out to others with my stories?


Finally, get off the damn internet and go out and live my life. I owe it to my kids and hubby to focus on them and not worry so much about what's online. Besides, I'm getting bored with the internet. Seriously, I think I've looked at pretty much everything I could possibly be interested in. Now it's time to focus on taking more classes in school and really get going with my degree. I've decided to pursue Music Therapy. It will take me awhile to do this and I can't get the degree in Vegas but moving will come in time. Right now, I just need to get through junior college as quickly as possible so I can get that Associates Degree and continue on. It's taken me almost twenty years to finally start doing this. It's time to get serious. 


Happy New Year
