New Year, New Day, New Moment

***K, I wrote this on Saturday, but was having issues....with my fauxhawk, jeep, and I gained 5 lbs overnight. Plus I keep getting little jabs of pain all over my body.
Hmmm....how perplexing.....***

Happy new year!!!!

I resolve everyday. So, I'm not going to do this whole resolution thing just because it's the beginning of a new year.
I do it cuz it's a new day, a new moment, a new opportunity.

Daily:

-I punish myself way too much about food. I won't do that anymore. That doesn't mean that I'm going to just eat like crap and ignore the consequences. No, what I mean is that if I chose to not eat crap, it is because of how it makes my body feel. It will be because I am treating myself kindly. And I will no longer treat myself unkind with words in my head.

-With speaking more kindly to myself, I will with others as well. With my girl and my hubby specifically. I will spend more time with my girl, doing what eight year olds do. With that, I will also have more follow through with my girl. I mean this in the discipline area. She may voice the contrary, but she works well with discipline.

-I'm going to read more books. With this new thing I have that is flat and shinny and has a fruit on the back (I dare not say the name for fear I might get another jabbing pain in some random place on my body), I have downloadable books. There are lots of free ones, and the ones that aren't free, are cheap. More books that really interest me. With that, I will be consciously creating more time to do so.

-I won't resolve to keeping my house cleaner. I think that will be a result of me being truer to myself. Doing what centers me. What grounds me.

-I'm going to say sorry when I'm sorry, and say I'm wrong when I'm wrong.

-I'm going to say yes when the answer is yes, and I'm going to say no when the answer is no.

- I am going to say kinder, thoughtful, conscious words in my marriage. 2010 was a great year for us because hubby stayed conscious. 2011 is my year to do that. Oh man, we're gonna make our friends dry heave. Hehehehe

-I am going to make use of the money I pay to the gym every month. I just dont know when.

Now for the FUN stuff:

- I am going to go to AT LEAST 3 Brandi Carlile concerts. In Utah or out of state. Whatever.
- Im going to get 2 tattoos!!!
- Im going to do the SLC Marathon again. (Bike Tour)
- Im going to do LRRH.

WAHOO!!!

What are you creating in 2011?
