What a year 2009 has been. Looking back it didn’t seem all that crazy, but when I sit down – peach margarita in hand – and think what all went on, I am a little overwhelmed I managed to survive. What’s even more crazy is that a whole decade is over. I can’t believe that! Where does the time really go?
I am not much of a resolution person during the New Year, but did come across a few I felt that were realistic and beneficial. I am going to make a conscious effort to get back to blogging. Watching the move “Julie & Julia” over the holidays has inspired me. It has inspired me as well to not be so lost – a feeling I feel quite so often. So even though I am finishing up my Associate’s Degree this year (I’m on the 10 year plan for the 2 year degree), I am heavily thinking of going to the vocational school in Rome to learn a skill. My other resolutions I have made are simple, yet so important. The first (which I began before the New Year) is texting while driving. It seems rather hypocritical of me to say “don’t drink and drive” when I have (notice have as in past tense) texted while driving. So that is done, no more of that. “I’m a safety girl!” Anyone tell me what movie that’s from?? My second resolution is to go to the gym on a more realistic/consistent basis. At least until my birthday. Since being diagnosed with adult ADHD this year, I have realized that this is what inhibits my ability to follow through with things, so at the recommendation of an article I read, I have to take steps (baby steps it seems) in order to follow through. So no more 3 hours, 2 times a day spells at the gym trying to be Wonder Woman and burn myself out in a week. I’ll go for no more than 2 hours after I take Spencer to school. So definitely stay tuned.
