A manditory new years resolution post




Alright, I have been without interent for the last week and as relaxing and fun it has been I feel like I  have been disconnected from the world. So sorry this post is a little late. 
I have never really set New Years resolutions. I always kind of thought they were silly because this they last until about January 31st. This upcoming year has there is going to be so much change in our family and it scares me a little. So to get a little more control of this upcoming year I have decided to make a few resolutions. 

Follow my Budget: Every month Daniel and I sit down and make a budget and put money into our envelopes but by the end of the month there is no money in the envelopes and we haven't followed our budget at all, So from now on I am going to try to be more disciplined. 

Cook more: I like to go out to eat, mostly because afterwords I don't have to do dishes and there is no preparations involved. Basically I'm lazy so this year I plan make dinner more often regardless of how much I have dishes and standing over a hot steamy stove. This will probably save us a million dollars too.

Worry Less: Daniel often tells me I am going to die 10 years earlier than I should because I worry so much. I have a way of worrying myself sick and it's getting a little old. I need to start letting things go and not letting them bother me. Worry less is my new mantra for 2014. 

45 Minutes a Day: It's disgusting to me that I am writing this but as I see my stomach getting bigger and the number on the scale going up I can't help but dream about my body this summer as a I was training for a marathon. Seriously, I looked good. So 45 minutes a day of some sort of physical activity is my new goal. Whether it's just going for a walk or a run on the elliptical I have to do something because I know I can take care of my body better than I am. I realize this is so cliche but it is sadly necessary for me.

Hopefully putting these in writing will make a a little more accountable for actually following through and accomplishing these things and try long that 31 days to make these life long habits.
