New Years resolutions
Did you ladies make and new year resolutions this year? Have you stuck with them so far?
I made some goals for my self this year. I think of it less as a resolution but more a refocus on life.
1. Go back to school. I went to two years at a Community college but never really devoted myself to it. But now I'm at a place in my life where I can focus just on school. I decided that I want to be a vet tech and have started volunteering at a humane society one day a week. My next step will be to take pre-rec classes and improve my gpa. Then start looking into schools.
2. Make a workout plan AND stick to it. As I sure you all can relate to..... I was doing get jogging and eating right before the wedding. But... then I stopped and started gaining weight 
. Maybe 2011 will finally be the year I get in shape and lose some weight! I know it can be its just 100% up to me.
3. This one is kinda silly. But not to buy coffee mate ( cause of chemicals and added fat/ sugar) and just drink my coffee with milk and sugar. This one I failed today 
It sounded so good! ooopps.
Re: New Years resolutions
I did make resolutions. Lets see if I remember them!!
1. Floss more
2. Be more Stylish
3. Learn to Ski
4. Forgive and Forget
I am doing well with the flossing.
Yep, I tried to make it simple because any elaborate resolutions never happen:
1. go back to the gym, at least once a week
2. snack healthy
3. eat a fruit every day
My work friend sent me this website:

This makes some resolutions easier than ever

1. Get back to the gym on a regular basis. I was so good about going regularly until early last summer when I started running outside. I did that instead of going to the gym, and once the running was done I never got back into the gym habit. At least not to the extent that I had before.
2. Focus on paying off debt.
3. Spend more time naked. Just because.
Blog
I only made one b/c I'm not usually a resolution kind of person.
1. Think positive thoughts.
Some of my students this year have really made me hate my job recently. And dreading going to work and getting extremely frustrated while there is EXHAUSTING. So in order to get myself sanely through the school year I made the above resolution...which has turned into a mantra really. :-)
Pay off at least one credit card.
Travel (which doesn't help pay down debt)
