New Years Resolutions
1. Get down to 135. Usually I aim for 130 but I will probably never weigh that little without starvng myself again. 5 pounds heavier = 5 pounds more attainable. Really, I am pretty darn happy with my body. I just don't want to buy new clothes when I have so many that fit me a year and a half ago. Anyway, part of this is also that I am starting to feel dumpy and slow. I want to eat better and be more active and, thus, healthier.
2. Read 100 books. This is the FOURTH year that I will be attempting this. I'm never sad that I didn't make it because I always end up reading so many good books. I'm going to focus on some lists this year, specifically my extra-long to-be-read list. I'd also like to read newer books on occasion.
3. Get myself back on financial track. The first thing I'll be doing is putting myself back on my allowance, no excuses. IF there is a special occasion, I'll just have to plan for it. Next I'll build my emergency fund, then pay my parents back, then get back onto my pay-off plan. I'll keep putting money in my Christmas Fund. If I get the home buyer credit, I'll get a new roof and a couple of other things for the house. (Sofa? TV? Who knows?!) The rest of the money will go towards my pay-off plan and maybe a vacation. :)
I'm excited to get started!
