Out with the Old, In with the New

As promised, listed below were my 2009 New Year's Resolutions:


Resolution #1: To remember to take my vitamins EVERY day.
*This one I actually did make pretty much. I may miss a day here and there, but for the most part I do this! I'm soooo proud. And I lowered my cholesterol several points with my daily cinnamon pill. Fish oil did NOT work, but the cinnamon does for me! Yay!
Resolution #2: To wean myself down to ONE Diet Coke a day.
*Ok, I actually weaned myself off DC completely for THREE WEEKS. I gained 3 pounds and was miserable. Back on them full force. My body is just not set up for "healthy" living. Will not be making this one ever again. LOL
Resolution #3: To concentrate on my abs during workouts.
*Whatever. Nope. Didn't even come close.
Resolution #4: To have a happy heart. Not to take things too seriously. And continue to care for others more that for myself.
*Well, this one was a total puff piece. Happy heart-check. Not take things too seriously-check. That last sentence-who am I trying to kid. I'm an only child for pete's sake! LOL

Just because I'm hardheaded and an overachiever, I'm going for FIVE resolutions for 2010! Here they are:

Resoultion #1- I resolve to find my joy (even at Wal-Mart). Hey, it could happen. I realize I'm pretty joyous all the time, but I'm particularly focusing on Hades and the effect it has on me this year. I will beat it down! LOL
Resolution #2-I resolve to eat at least one vegetable daily. This one will probably never happen. I know it's what I need to do, but what I want is entirely different. But I am going to try.
Resolution #3- I resolve to be quiet (sometimes) and listen better. This is truly one I need to try and achieve. I'm not gonna lie...this one's a stretch. ;)
Resolution #4: I resolve to commit one random act of kindness each day (even at wal-mart). Whether it be opening a door for someone, buying an American soldier a cup of coffee, letting someone cut in line, etc. The point is to be kind and random. This is really a resolution I want to keep.
Resolution #5: I resolve to love even the most negative peeps I know. Easier said than done.

Out with the old, in with the new. May your joys be a'plenty, and your troubles be few. Happy New Year from me to you!

Have a GREAT NEW YEAR's EVE! Be safe! See ya in 2010! Later blog readers.....
