Life Changes for next Year!
 

Istead of Resolutions; Do you have any changes that you would like to make in your Life?

Oh, the usual...
 

Take smaller portions of food when eating, keep the house cleaner, etc. I also need to work hard to build my business (mortgage broker) so I can make a decent living again.

As far as Wosie is concerned, I need to work on training some more after her leg is completely healed. :p

How about you, Mone't? You started this, what were you thinking?

Great thread!

.

Oh wow - I am going to work on my motivation and problem with procrastination that I seemed to have developed lately - I really REALLY plan to change this - the last few months I haven't really been my normal self and this is a good time to try to change that -

Also - I want to lose a few lbs....(same as last year) :(

I hope to get healthier ,keep living and enjoying Mini and my baby girl cats Monet and ouija and of course enjoy every moment i breath because I know far to well that life can be short and no breath should be wasted .Besides this ..I have alot to give so in that i am hoping to meet new people and enjoy lifes journey ,pssssssssst this is my secret wish for you all ...

I would love to have a baby this next year but I will see I guess. I am ready but my husband is not so I'm hoping for a miracle.

I plan to concentrate more on my health, trying to work harder at it. I know I'll never be like I used to be, but I've gotten lazy and allowed myself to slack off when it comes to taking care of myself. Hopefully Tucker is making plans to become house broken this year.I'll have to teach him about new year's resolutions!

My husband and I have found a house that we want to build really bad. So I just want to save money so we can get it as soon as possible. We are so cramped in our house that we have now. This new house would have more room than we need. Lots of closets too!!!!!!

I want to also get better at keeping the house cleaner, lose a few pounds. I want to stay healthy, along with my family. I guess the usual stuff!

I did ask, so I should answer...The last couple of years I have just been floating along...Not really "living" it UP! So, as one of my favorite comedian's once said, I am going to ride this until the wheels fall off!
Meaning, I am going to enjoy it, live it, and take darn good care of it!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So, the usual
Renew my gym membership
stop smoking
prepare for my little man
spend more time with my godkids
oh, and I plan to continue speaking my mind, kicking butt's and taking names later.... :p

i want to
get healthier
stop smoking for sure.
not be so picky when meeting new guys.
exercise
stop cursing
save money

WELL some of my changes are coming whether I like it or not!
I'm going to be a Godmommy in May (and a good one, at that!)
I'm moving far away from the town that I will have lived in for 19 years!
I'm NOT going to live with the parents anymore! Woohoo!
My bestfriend is getting married :eek:
Promotion.. maybe? ::crosses fingers::
and I'm getting another Yorkie!

I would like to try to....

stop cussing so DAMN much! :eek: SEE!
Spend more time with my Mom and Dad.
Not always look at things being half empty.. ya know..
Not being so ANAL. ( I even tried the medication, didn't work, its ME)

Ok here I go:
1. Save enough money so we can furnish our home little by little with things we really want :rolleyes:
2. Keep my cc debt down to a minimum (shopping is my therapy...gotta find a new one lol) :rolleyes:
3. Laugh more :D
4. Let negative feeling and hurts go :(
5. Work on my relationship with my hubby's side of the family :thumbup:
6. Be healthier :thumbup:
7. Take up a new class (dancing or cooking) :p

That's what I'm talking about! That would be the answer to all the things I'd like to change that I listed above. :rolleyes:

Look, I have that dream also..I was talking practical ones for right now...Oh, btw if you hit, you do know you have a long lost black sister in Baltimore, RIGGGHT!!!! :rolleyes:

Mine would be..
To try for a baby, still LOL
To work as hard as I can to get my health back
To be loving to others
To do the things I am most passionate about
and to not sweat the small stuff :p

I just joined a gym and my life change is to lose 20 lbs!

This last past year had trully been a bad one for us that's for sure. It started off with me sister getting into trouble and the battle for Cherish between her grandmother who had nothing to do with her till then. Thank God that all worked out and CPS didn't get involved and take her! Then we almost lost Gus, but again we thank the lord that it was just not him time to go!!!! Then my husband totaled his car, I ended up in the hospital having to have emergance surgery, my aunt passed and my father in law is still in the hospital fighting for his life.

With all that has happened I haven't been taking care of myself the way I should. My weight had been like a rollorcoaster. And I can't seem to get well from this damn flue. I know it's becasue I've been a bundle of nerves and not eatting like I should.

I have to look at things in a different matter. My sister will be getting out in September and I hope and pray she has learned and will stay clean for her and her daughter. We have been blessed to have Cherish in a safe and loving home where we don't have to worry about her well being, Gus is here for us to spoil and love and is perfactly healthy and has recovered fully. My husband got a new car to replace is other car thanks to insurance. And my aunt,, well she is with the angels where she will forever be beautiful and is watching over me till I join her one day. As for my father in law,, well we are still working on that one. The family seems to be coming around and being there for him. At least he will not die thinking people didn't care.

See I've started to change already. I just hope I can keep up this frame of mind up and start taking care of myself a bit better too.

I can tell you one thing,,,,,, being a part of this site has done wonders for me that's for sure!!! I have found much joy here and am so greatfull to have come acrosse some wonderful, caring and loving people.

Sorry to have gone on and on but,,, I do feel better getting this all out! You all are so wonderful!!!!!!! Happy holidays to you all.

Un-max some of my credit cards (yes, they're all maxxxxxxxxxxxxxxed)
lose 30lbs (fat chance. no pun intended)
quit smoking (though I know I never will)

The same as every year, lose the same 20 lbs.
Concentrate on the important thing and not sweat the small stuff.
Become proactive instead of reactive.
And finally, live in the moment instead of dreaming what I will do next year.

Well, every year I vowed to quit smoking... and every year I would fail... Then came baptisim.... I have not smoked, had even a taste of wine or any type of dring since...(almost two years!) But coffee I have strugled with....

So this year its Starbucks... If I can give up my $5.00 a day coffee habit I will be in good shape! Both with my faith and with my bank account!

I also plan to leave the workplace and be the stay-at-home Mom I need to be!

Anyone interested in how I lost 30 pounds?
 

Ladies, I cannot believe how many folks want to lose weight here. I can help. (no gimmick, for real, for free!)

PM me if you want to know how I did it! :D

This is a good one.
I plan to do the usual first of the year diet denial thing again this year.
And actually I plan to 'not' clean house so much, relax and enjoy life a lot more, after I get home from the gym.
And love having a puppy to train again come April!! Can't wait!
I could go on forever.
count me in for that lottery win!

Darn betcha I do! ;)

Further my education
Show my Yorkie
Get in shape
Be more patient
Enjoy everyday to the fullest
Start obedience with my Biewers
Have a Yorkie meet up for all those that bought puppies from me and those that have Yorkies in the area.

Mone't this is a great thread!

Oh!..Oh!!..Oh!!! (juming up and down raising hand)
..lost my train of thought :(

Thats great! Congrats, and good luck! My church actually has the same rules. :D

As for me...hmmmmm...I guess I want to start doing as well as I used to in school.
