New Years Resolution

Ok, so I usually don't make resolutions, but this year I have made 2 and only 2. Seems that every year I tell myself that I am going to lose weight, and this year I am finally making a resolution about it and writing it in here (is that dumb or what?). So maybe making it be a public thing will finally make it happen for me. But I also vow NOT to spread myself so thin either. Last July to the end of the year I did just that. Between full time work, being a mom, being a single mom (while Martin was on the road atleast from M-Th), being involved with Isaac in Cub scouts 2x a month, going to 2 other Scout meetings every month, plus selling Premier, there were some weeks that I was gone 3 - 4 nights a week. Uffda. That was way too much.

So my resolutions are this:

1 - lose weight
2 - be home more

They seem pretty feasible don't they? I think so. I know I"m not going to the Regional Rally or National Rally for Premier - that will help. But I'm also just not gonna make myself spread so thin. I will still do the same things, but limit myself to the nights I'm gone. Hopefully the boys will notice that and not tell me "Mom, you're always gone". That's hard to hear when you're leaving home to do something you enjoy.

Must go. Just thought I would share my resolutions so maybe seeing them online will help me stick them more. Feel free to check in with me about them too. I won't mind!

Have a great 2008!
Michelle
