new decade! new year!

There are a few things I feel like I need to improve in my life.  I only get one chance, and I feel like if I'm not careful, 40 will be here, and I will wonder what happened, how did life just pass by.  So I'm putting my foot down, taking control(of the controllable) and starting my 30's.  With the past behind me, looking forward to a new decade, a new year, a new season, a new day, and each new moment to make myself the best I can.

So here as a written witness, we will see how often I exhaust myself, give up, try again, fail, succeed, rejoice, and want to crawl into bed and never come out. 

This weekend I came up with a list of my main goals.  They are as follows: Healthy, Happy, Holy. 

Healthy
eating
drinking
snacking
sleeping
exercising
checkups

Happy- relationships
self
husband
kids
friends/family

Holy
prayer
Mass
reading/writing
community

A New year's resolution seemed a little contrite, more like a new life plan.  My relationship with God needs to come first, and the rest will be aided by that.  Hopefully this(blog) will help to keep my lines of communication open, and keep me on track, and keep me accountable. 

I will try to focus on changing one new thing at a time, I'm not ready to give up some things (like the jar of Nutella in my lap, at least until it is empty)  I will update on: things I am working on, things that happen to me, stuff the kids say, what is driving me crazy, what I need to work on, whatever the hell I want.
