I've deleted and restarted this twice. Third times the charm . . .
Let me explain, no there is not enough time, let me sum up. (Princess Bride inspired)
Ate out too much and ate poorly at that.
Started photo album project, stopped ten yards from the finish line.
Joined a gym, worked out at least 75 times but most were ten to twenty minutes.
Started writing books, I don't write often enough to keep the ideas flowing.
Got a new haircut, but haven't donated the hair that Stacey and I hacked off yet.
Started getting better products to take care of my skin (hand soap wasn't cutting it). But only wash my face everyother night. (ick, right?)
I resolve to fix these issues and to add a few bigger goals that I want to be better at next year.
My health. This year is not starting off well. I feel rundown and sick to my stomach most days. I can barely drink a cup of coffee this morning. I want to look and feel better. I will take better care of this body that I have! This will be the year of getting back on track! We're talking about adding child number two, but if I can't take care of myself, how can I expect to have a healthy pregnancy?
Taking 'me' time. Jeff has over and over again said he will take time off for me to have me time. I resolve to take him up on that this year. So far I've requested a friday night to go to a Tastefully simple party at a friends house, where I won't have to take Alaina along after her bed time.
To sew more. Nothing in life brings me such joy as creating something for someone that I love with my own two hands. I already have a pattern for some summer clothes for Alaina and I resolve that I will make at least one outfit for her this year! I will also sew a duvet cover and bedskirt for the beautiful new bedrooms we will have this next year. Alaina is also in line to get new bedding.
And now I have exhausted all of my energy that I have for today. Stay strong and I will remember that a New Years resolution is a whole year's goal. Even if I fall of the wagon this next month. I have to climb back on again and again!

I like how you said it's a goal for the whole year. Don't forget that!!! It's also not just for the year.... some of the things you have stated are also for your life! You can do it, just remember to get back on the wagon if you fall off!
Great post! I know just what you mean, about starting things and not getting them finished! If you do get those outfits and bedding fixed - make sure that you post pictures!!!
We are all going to get healthier this year. It's time.
Just a little physiology- it takes 21 days for your brain to get realigned for a new path, so you have to do something 21 days for it to become an automatic habit
