2013

Sam and I were at a personal best, we made it to 10pm last night! Last year we had his parents over and they left around 6 and by 6:45pm we were both in bed. Even my parents were up until 1am last year. We did stay up to midnight though the first year we were together....eventually we might get to that point again.

This year I've decided to come up with a life resolution rather than just one for the year because it seems that year resolutions don't seem to make it past the first month and I'd like to work on these for the next few years and maybe even longer than that.

In no particular order:
  • Exercise regularly at least 3x a week to lose about 30lbs (goal is between 125-127lbs - currently at 153lbs), tone muscles and maintain figure.
  • Drink more water and tea
  • Eat healthier and work on portion control.
  • Take vitamins and get to bed at a more normal hour (this will be good once he's on days within the next month, because we'll both be on the same schedule)
  • Finish writing fantasy novel series (at least books 1-3), work on art and crafts for Etsy store.
  • Blog more. I kind of got away from it towards the end of the year.
  • Don't let work stress get me heated and follow me home. Work limited overtime per week - only about one or two days. Get further organized and cleanup aging work.
  • Don't let Sam's work stress me out and keep me up at night. (This will probably be the first one I break...tomorrow!)
  • Have more date time with Sam.
I'm sure I've forgotten something but I'll be sure to add it.

Happy New Years!

Happy New Years everyone! Sam and I tried our best to stay up for the big event but around 10:30 we couldn't make it any longer. We had our early New Year's kiss and zonked out. Yesterday, according to Sam, was our "last night of debauchery" (when it comes to diet and lifestyle). It's true though, we both need to get back in shape, he just finished cutting out the seams to one of his uniform shirts because its too tight with him and his vest.
Weight loss seems to be one of the big resolutions out there this year. On my MSN homepage was an article on 13 Ways to Keep Off Pesky Pounds for Good. I'm looking forward to slimming back down hopefully to my 125 or somewhere around there but also to shape up my arms and tummy at the same time.
