New Year's Resolutions Review
Okay, so the 2010 resolutions didn't go so great.
Let's look at last year...
1. Lose 25 pounds. I lost them before, found them again. Need to lose them again.
Negatory. Gained more instead. Oops.
2. Go to the gym or do some sort of physical activity each week.
Well, I tried. I did join a yoga studio, went rock climbing, and began working out with a friend. And I bought a Wii Fit. But the resolution itself is unfulfilled.
3. Train for a long bike ride. Somewhere in the 50 mile range, if not more. I'd love to do the Austin to Shiner ride.
I think I rode like 4 times last year. LOSER!
4. Cook one new recipe a week.
BAHAHA! Not at all. I did try some new ones though.
5. Read 50 books.
YAY! I did this one! I read a total of 53 books this year, including a smarty pants book and a biography.
6. Go to a new state. I'm thinking California, Utah, Illinois, or Maryland.
Yay! I win again! I went to Maryland.
7. Visit friends/family in Houston.
Nope. I suck.
8. Watch all the Oscar nominated movies, unless there are 10 nominees for Best Picture.
Nope. Lose again.
9. Do stand up.
No.
10. Learn to knit gloves.
I'm still working on a scarf from 2009.
Here is my January to-do.
1. Clean out closets.
I did this a few times. One of my closets is AMAZINGLY organized. Plus, I got a bunch of plastic bins at Lowes after Christmas, so I have high hopes for organization in the new year.
2. Organize bills.
Thanks to Taryn, I did this. It was November, but it got done.
3. Watch Mad Men and Dexter.
Instead, I admitted I don't watch those shows anymore.
4. Redo my cubicle at work.
Nope
5. Go to the Bodies exhibit.
It was May, but I went.
6. Find and make appointment for dentist and dermatologist.
Negative on the dentist, but positive on the dermatologist. It resulted in a hunk being cut out of my shoulder.
