2013 Goals

So...I'm not really into resolutions because let's face it...I'm awful at sticking with big changes like that.

One time I became a vegetarian---for a day.

One time I changed my name---for a day. (Marsha, Marsha, Marsha!!)

One time I tried the Atkins diet (to lose some post baby weight in a totally unhealthy way) and I cried because I wanted a banana so badly. I don't think I ever eat bananas, but I sure wanted one as soon as I knew they were forbidden.

At the beginning of December, Russell & I decided to take on the Paleo lifestyle. I was certain it would help with my mental clarity. I think I made it about 21 hours. I may be foggy-minded, but I'm happy!

So...no resolutions for twenty thirteen for this kid. I have decided on some things that I am going to focus on this year though. Most of these have been my focus in 2012 too. Always room for improvement. :)

1. Quit worrying about pleasing everyone. I am going to do the right thing...and I can't help how it makes someone feel after that. THIS MY FRIENDS IS GOING TO BE A TOUGH ONE. GULP.

2. Eat at least one fruit and one veggie every day.  NOT EASY, but do-able!

3. Drink some more water. SIPPING AS WE SPEAK.

4. Make reading my Bible a priority rather than an "if I can find time" thing to do....let's face it---I have time. If I have time for this blog, facebook, tv...I have time for my Bible. I HAVE SOME FRIENDS KEEPING ME ACCOUNTABLE ON THIS ONE. PHEW!

5. Try my very best to eliminate negativity from my life. I don't want to talk negative....or listen to other negativity. Too much to be thankful for to waste time with that! YES-YES--!!

I normally don't write things like this on here, because I usually only use it for the kid's memories/scrapbook. ACCOUNTABILITY, my friends.

You know I love this post because I love you and your ways. :)

I don't do "resolutions" anymore. I simply resolve to love and live life while appreciating the little things along the way.
