2015, please be good to me this year.

Wow, it's been a whole year since I have posted anything on this blog.  A lot has happened this past year both good and some not so great.  Some things on my goal list were checked off and some weren't, but overall I am making progress to be a better person.  Now I need to get into the habit of writing more, sharing some recent experiences, and open my heart up once again.

I will state once again that I do not like resolutions, I think they are silly and easily broken.  Goals and promises have such weight to them that you don't want to break them.  So to start the year below are my goals & promises for 2015.  

2015 Aspirations, Goals & Promises

• This is a constant in my life, but I want to be a mother soon so I need to start with a healthy mindset and subsequent body.  So my first goal is to lose a pound a week for all of 2015.  If I lose more, fantastic!  Though by the end of the year I should be 50 lighter and more comfortable in my skin again.
• Go to Seattle!  Yes, my dearies this is the year I go.  Summer sound good for you Erin and Katie?
• Get into a routine of walking daily, gym a couple of times a week, and dragging my dad and/or sister with me.  
• Get my dog a new home.  Long story with this guy, but I have concluded he needs someone that isn't me.  I will write more about this decision later.
• Be social; sounds kinda funny to make this a goal though I have been such a homebody for so long in part due to anxiety and depression.  Part of the reason I haven't been losing weight either.
• I want to be in a relationship that has the potential for more.  I'm done dating, it's exhausting in it's own right.  I want the chaos that comes with having my own family.
• Find a better career.  I really like doing hair, I really do.  Admittedly this industry is cut throat and I am not aggressive enough for it.  Something with stable hours and benefits would be nice.  

Some of this is a carry over from last year, but aren't we all a work in progress?  I do hope my friends and family help me keep accountable for my actions while supporting me in all I do.  Love you all and wishing you a great upcoming year.
