New Years Resolution Time.

Lately, I've been giving a lot of thought to what I want to accomplish this year, new years resolutions, reflecting back over the past couple of years and all that kind of stuff.

Back in 2012, I sat down and wrote a big list of goals, plans, dreams, and resolutions, and well, that didn't work out. I mean I started the year out pretty good, in fact I think I made it all the way to May-June before that all fell apart. I did manage to accomplish a few of the goals I set for myself, like running that 5k {and not dying in the process} so the year wasn't a total waste. But it wasn't the success I was hoping for either.

In 2013 I set only one goal. To support, and  help my husband, in any way I could, to make it to the Amateur National Motocross Championships. We did that. And admittedly, I did manage to check a couple major tasks off the 2012{sure it  was year late, but it got done} goal list too, like cleaning out the attic and the little library area. OH and I threw my niece a baby shower. So in theory, I could call it a successful year, becuz I did accomplish the one thing I set out to do.  But since August I've felt like I've just been kinda in limbo. Not really working towards anything.  Not really focused on accomplishing much of anything. I haven't been eating very well. I haven't been working out real serious. I haven't done much creative work.

I've never really been one to set New Year's Resolutions, or goals of any kind really. I've talked about this before {back in 2012 when I made that big list} but tis year I'm feeling pretty good about the whole idea. I'm feeling like it's time for me to get back on track, it's time for me to commit to setting some real goals and  finishing them.  Maybe I'm just setting myself up to fail!! Maybe it's that crazy New Moon on New Years thing!! Maybe it's the whole Chinese Year of the Horse thing!!! What ever it  is, I feel like it's time!

I don't have a complete list yet {hey I still got a few hours until it's 2014 and I work best under pressure} and maybe I won't make an actual, set-in-stone, list either. Maybe I'll wing it all year. Maybe I'll set new goals as I go.
But my general list {as of right this minute} is COMMIT to:
~get back on track with my fitness
~tackle my Household project list
~tackle my DIY project list
~staying more organized
~being a better blogger

I'm still working out the details of how I'm planning to approach all of these areas, but that's the basic plan.

So, tell me, what are your big plans this year????

OH, and let me know, is there anything you'd like to see more of, or less of, in the blog this year???? If you have any great ideas, let me know, I"m really thinking about how I want to approach blogging this next year. Maybe there will be more structure or Maybe it will just remain the same old crazy ramblings on I've been doing...
