Let's rearrange...
I've already said this - but I felt like making it more official. I have put way more thought into it today. I am going to leave it public - announce my intentions to the world.
My goals ( I hate the word resolution - these things take work, I will be resolute about them, but I have to bust my ass too)
1. Cook for myself - learn three basic meals that I can make at home and do so on a regular basis. Once I master three, pick up others as I go.
2. Learn Yoga and practice it on a regular basis. I would also like to start up acupuncture again.
3. Make a descision on brain surgery. This will not be an easy one. And I reserve all rights to change my mind based on symptom progression. (and six feet under be damned for making me cry like a little baby last night. This is all hitting way too close to home)
4. Be more fucking spontaneous. Get out of town more, make frivalous purchases once in a while.
5. Make the art creations in my head come to life. I feel inspired for the first time since probably high school. I have finally found an art form that makes me want to do it. Makes me want to create. I always felt like I had to paint or draw, or be a web designer (which I am, but it bores me a bit at times). I am going to make 3 dimensional collages. I have a whole series in my head right now. Its quite amazing to feel this enthused about creating again. This is where it is at for me. This is my art now. Graphic Design is good, I love it, but its my job and it in no way makes me feel empowered.
6. Pay off my car and buy a truck. This should happen in the next 5 months, especially with my upcoming promotion. Yay raises. Keep paying off my debts. I am almost down to just my student loans. I am very proud of what I accomplished last year in this arena.
7. In general make my own health and wellness a much higher priority. Start living for myself (not in a selfish way), create more, breathe things in more, love more and cry more. I feel very good about this upcoming year. I am ready.
