Oh hai 2012…
(these pics were taken at 12:01am, yes, I woke my boo up and yes he was pissed)
We are 2 weeks into the new year and it still hasn’t hit me that a new year is starting all over again. So far it’s been ok, I’m still getting over this annoying cold/cough that seems to have moved in and doesn’t want to leave. ugh. Annnnnyway, let’s talk about life. It’s a rule, once that ball drops you have to look back on the year that just passed and wonder what the hell happened. What did you do with yourself? Did you stick to any of the resolutions you made the year before? Did you find the love of your life? Move into your dream home? Make more money? Find a job you love? Lose those 10 lbs that we know will always be there even if we did lose them? Blah Blah Blah. Some of the answers might be yes some no and some might not even matter. I’m all for goals and the journey it takes to get there. I’m just not a fan of the feeling you get if you don’t cross it all off your list by the time Dick Clark starts counting down…10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1. I guess it’s the feeling of failure. Like, you didn’t do enough or didn’t work hard enough to reach your goals. That feeling sucks. Don’t get me wrong, I’m pretty proud of making it through my first year of being a mom with only having a handful of breakdowns (ok, maybe 2 handfuls) getting my own office space for my Ebay store, losing my baby weight, and getting back into blogging…amongst other things.
I would say that I don’t have any resolutions this year because I don’t want that fear and pressure but I would be lying. I want to complain less. I want to have more happy days than sad. I want a better living envoriment. I want to stop worrying about the Jones’ and what they are blogging about. I want to read more. I want to work out. I want to have an awesome 30th birthday. I want to craft more. I want to learn a new language. I want my business to grow and give people jobs. I want to help my fellow man out more.
I want to be a better person.
I want to be a better mom.
I want to turn my wants into wills.
I don’t want to feel like a failure on 12.31.12 11:59pm so I am making these my life goals, they will get done, some sooner then later, but I will make it happen. There are more but these will do for now, I will post them later on so I can get them out there in the universe. Ahh that universe, it works in mysterious ways.
What are your goals???
