Okay... New Year's resolutions.. well not really

Posted by spriggy on December 30, 2005, at 0:05:48

I hate resolutions because, well, no one keeps them.

But what about your goals for this year? Better yet, where would you like to see yourself a year from now?

I try to divide my goals up in sections/categories:

Spiritually: Spending more time reading my bible and praying for other's. I've had this thing I'm dealing with (kind of a secret struggle) that I am praying God will release me from this year. I'd really like to be what He desires me to be.

Physically: I need to eat healthier- I am sick and tired of feeling like crap. I probably need to gain about 5-10 pounds- being so sick this year had me lose weight I didn't really need to lose (and why do I always lose in my boobs?).Anyway, I imagine if I eat healthier, I'll lose more weight but oh well.

Oh yeah, I'd like to be running about 4 miles again by one year! I'm only up to 2 right now (and it's more like walking fastly!).

Mentally: I hope I am making progress with my anxiety and depression. I have no clue what it will take to get me there; therapy? meds? more lightbox? Chocolate? I dunno.. But I want to be better.

As a mom: Spending more quality time with my kid's. I spend much quanitity time, but I really need to spend more time just enjoying them instead of taking care of them.

I also hope to start writing more. I had a few articles published last year (before I was sick) in Outreach Magazine and Relevent. Maybe work harder on getting to be more polished so my editor friend can actually do her own work. LOL

Anyway, what about you?

Oh yeah, as a wife:

I really want to nag much less. It's sad but that is my main goal to work in this marriage. I also want to try to love him better- I think I sometimes think love should be this gushy feeling, and when I don't feel it, I'm lousy at "acting it" out. He is a hopeless romantic and really needs me to gush over him more.

I will try.

Personally I like the one about running. It gives you a high which in turn helps with depression anxiety. Two miles is great! Four may be too much for your body now. Me I do the old lady shuffle and hope to add a few streets to it. Would love to run again but it's not realistic. Good luck with the rest. Fondly, Phillipa
