My Resolutions..

It seems like every year I will make some resolutions...some obtainable...some, not so much. Maybe the new year brings us hope to start over again..to forget mistakes of the past year or to get the chance to do something that we didn't get to....Who came up with 'The New Year's Resolution thing anyway? For years, I can remember I would promise myself that I would make time to sit down and read a good book...just try and squeeze in some time to do that....never happened. I have had 'Twilight' on my nightstand for 2 months...
Last year, my resolution was to NOT make a resolution!! Yay! I stuck with that one! So this year, I decided to make a list and maybe I could actually do some of them. Some are no brainers and they are ones that everyone should try to do. The other ones will take more effort on my part. So here they are:
-go to church EVERY Sunday or at least Sunday night
-be more patient with my kids
-be a better wife, mother, daughter and friend
-call more instead of texting...we all need to hear a voice every now and then. :)
-start walking consistently...I need Michelle to have that baby so I have someone there to push and motivate me!! The new VS catalogue just came...too many cute swim suits NOT to get motivated!
-sit down and read more to my kids
-and take more time for me...whether it be going for a walk or whatever...I am no good to anyone unless I am good to myself...right? :)
-have more date nights with Sal...
-save more money and stay on budget
-surround myself only with positive people
*** I am sure there are many more that I could list but I won't...can't wait to see what everyone else's resolutions are for 2009*****
