I think this year will be good for everyone. friends, family, neighbors. America, the world. I just.. feel this inside of me. Only time will come to tell.
For this year I'm doing two things. Well, it's really one thing. I'm bettering myself.
I've been working out now for about two weeks, and this time (hah) I'm actually going to stick with it. I've taken a couple of days off, but I've gotten right back out there the next day and worked out as hard as I could. One day I'll do cardio, and the next body sculpting.
I'm eating better. Not just.. more veggies, but reading labels, and making sure that I'm only (for the 90% most part) putting the right things into my body. Mario and I are trying to cut processed foods out of our diet as well. I'm currently reading Superfoods RX to help me in this, but this is something I've wanted to do for a while, and we've been slowly moving on that course.
I'm preparing my body for a baby, in a year or so, yes. But I'm also preparing my body for the new year, my old age, and giving myself a great gift. The gift of being able to look in the mirror naked or clothed, and like what I see. Something I haven't been able to do since I was a kid (during which time I didn't' yet care enough to really appreciate my stick-like legs xD).
We are taking control of our house, our finances, and our health, and are going to be taking vitamins as well. This year, I hope to begin schooling, so that I can get on the track to a better, more respectable, and higher-paying job.
I've been spending less time online, more time reading, and we've been spending time together. Which I really like. We have not had cable since we moved in June, but will soon be getting that back. That should take the boredom out of some afternoons. xD
I hope that all is well and that all my friends take this year to make themselves into whatever version of them sits on that dream shelf in their heads. I love and miss all of you, even if I don't see you that much. Take care of yourselves, and don't let anyone stand in the way of your strength and happiness.
I love you guys. <3
