New Year's Resolutions...These are mine.

So, tis the season to get those New Year's Resolutions down on paper (or in blog) to be held accountable for the coming year. Every year I make the same resolutions: better job, eat healthier, commit to fitness and getting in my best shape EVER, but this is the year I would really like to accomplish these resolutions. It seems like for the past few I have thought about these things, but they always fall out of focus a few weeks into January, as life gets busy and the world takes over. So this year, I want these to be successes in my life, instead of shoulda, coulda, didn't!

I am...

I am committing to the gym... We are thinking of a family this year, and I want to be in the best possible form to prepare for this...

I want to be more conscious of the food we eat and how we eat it... It seems like Joon and I are always eating the same three or four dishes... I am committing to healthy wholesome food for both Joon and I, food is fuel to the body and I want to put the best possible fuel into it!

I want to commit to my career... I have been doing contract work for the past two years and am getting tired of it, especially with the uncertain economic climate. I don't want the fear of losing my job as a contractor, and would like the security of full time, permanent work. Not to mention benefits and perks that come with permanent work!

I am committing to curbing my shopping habits.... How many closed toe, black, red, purple ballet flats, boots, heels, sandals (ect) does one gal need?

I am committing to furthering my education. Currently I work in communications in non-profit, and (though this ties with my career goals) I want to increase my skills in communications and also learn something new. I have been thinking about interior design for the past 12 months, and I commit to taking some classes and exploring this as possible career options...

I commit to being a good wife. I know this sounds corny, but it is easy to take for granted those you hold dear. Joon, my new husband, is patient, and kind, funny and strong, and I want to show him each day the ways I value him as a friend, partner, companion.

These are the big ones I can think of off the top of my head... if there is anyone who is committing (seriously committing) this year to their resolutions, let me know and we can be accountable together!
