Although this year is really just beginning I have so many big plans already!! I have finally scheduled my test for my license in early March so we will keep our fingers crossed for that momentous occasion. I will be going on vacation at the end of March since I have not taken one and have been at BHN close to eight months. I am burned out and overdue for one.
Jon and I will be visiting my aunt and uncle and my cousin for a week, who live in Virginia Beach. We are road-tripping it so it should be a lot of fun. (Hopefully) Memorial Day week will be another family reunion in NY. I am planning it with my cousin and my aunt, but we are still working out the details.
Anndddd the biggest news of all.......I am going to IRELAND!! I have never been out of the country (aside from Canada) and I am floored. My aunt and her friend Tom have invited Jon and I for a week. Probably sometime in August and I am already starting to save my money since tax returns are coming and the rest I will charge (because you only live once). I think being in Ireland will make me feel closer to my grandmother who I miss dearly. Both her parents were born in Ireland and she has visited herself a few times. I have cousins I have never met who still live there now. Traveling is definitely something that has been on my bucket list for so long. I am young and really not tied down with children or a mortgage, so no time like the present.
Aside from that I am continuing to eat much healthier and getting to the gym about 3-4 times a week. I am also drinking a lot more water and staying away from sweets. It has been hard to get motivated because this winter has been so bad, but I know it is important to create good habits now before I get too old.
