New Year's Resolutions...

Normally, I never make New Year's Resolutions because, normally, I never keep them. But I'm feeling optimistic for this new year so I decided to make a couple for myself and see what happens. Here they are:

1. Lose weight. This is on my A-list of things to do all the time. I have been losing weight, a pound or two, at a time but now it's time to get serious and conquer this bulge once and for all. Besides, since Alex arrived I have been eating everything in sight and I feel bloated and out of control. Not good...

2. Be a peaceful person. I want to remind myself to step back and breathe in any situation that would make me a little crazy and over reactive. I have a load of stuff that needs to get done this year and I need to approach each thing with a level head and a peaceful demeanor.

3. Learn something. I want to learn to speak Swedish...fluently. So far, it's been hit or miss. I have to buckle down and do it.

That's it. I'm not going to over do it. Three is about all I can handle and I'm sure even with only three one or more of these will fall by the wayside! But for right now, at this very moment, I am determined. (Can't you see the look in my eyes? LOL )
