Resolutions.

I'm not really a New Year's Resolutions kind of gal, but I am a huge fan of goals. I've been working on a few things and thought I should actually write them down.

-Clean the kitchen before bed every night. I love waking up to a clean kitchen, but HATE doing dishes. Especially at night. I feel like my day starts off better when the kitchen is already clean, so I'm putting on my big girl pants and just doing it every night.


-Read the scriptures daily. It's embarrassing how bad I am at reading and I'd like to do better. Even if sometimes it's only a verse or two. I guess my ultimate goal is to be closer with Heavenly Father, and this was something I decided to work on.

-Healthy. I don't really have a set goal, but this is something I've been working on. The best part about moving, is that the food in my kitchen didn't move with us. We get to start over. Meaning, if I don't buy crap food, we don't have it. So far it's worked out really well. Our apartment complex has a fitness room, which I still need the key for. With the holidays and move, I haven't run in who knows how long, and haven't really worked out. I'm not sure what a realistic fitness goal is for me yet. It's a challenge for me with two babies, and a lazy attitude. I definitely want more muscle and less muffin top, so I'll be lifting again. Since I haven't been running, I'm not sure if I'll actually do the half marathon I'm registered for that's in less than 2 weeks, but we'll see.

-Expanding My "Zone". Meaning, my comfort zone. I want to be more involved in the community as well as our ward. In our last ward, it was so easy to show up and sit back. We don't know anyone out here, and I want friends, ASAP. So I joined a few women's social groups on meetup.com, and signed up to have the missionaries over for dinner tomorrow night. Next week we have a relief society activity that I'm excited about. I had a friend that was in our old ward a little over a year ago. She was so involved with everything and never turned anything down. The funny thing is, it was completely unlike her personality. When she moved into the ward, she decided she was going to be different. She had an attitude of, "I am you know who from you know where, and you are going to LOVE me today." And everyone did. I learned a lot from that gal, and decided I'd implement that here. I am going to have an adventure and try everything. Before Ross and I were married, I was fearless. Immature maybe, but fearless. Ross helped me grow up, but I lost a little of my crazy self along the way.


I think those are the main things. Of course I want to be a better wife and mother, but hopefully by working on me, those will follow and fall into place.
