Wow, another year is closing down, and it's time for resolutions.
I suck at resolutions.
I have the usual "wants" and "goals" for the year. Get healthy, slim down some (a lot), and be happier inside so that I can be happy on the outside.
I want to buy pants that aren't double digit sized. I want to be able to wear the cute dresses and tops that I love.
I won't piss up your back and call it rain by saying I want to get slim and healthy "because my body is a temple". Sure I want to be healthy for the sake of being healthy, but there is a heavy dose of vanity in there.
If given a worthy* chance, I treat my body like a cheap rodeo. Ride hard, scream to the stars, and go home happy. And perhaps laugh a bit. If you can't laugh at yourself when you've have a good time, then you were doing it wrong.
I want to 'declutter' the inside of my head, being zen and relaxed helps with overall stress, blood pressure, and even aids in digestion.
I guess you can say I want to have a better me in the coming year, whether that means I lose weight and fit into those size 4 jeans again, or if I stay the same and just get happier, either way, it works for me.
I won't be partying it up this New Years, I actually have to work both New Year's Eve and New Year's Day, so those of you who get to go party like rock stars? Party some for me.
*I don't want you thinking I am going to treat just anyone as a prized stallion looking for a new rider; if I were to be less picky, I'd be a lot less stressed!

Bwahahahaha! ..."like a cheap rodeo" This describes my lifestyle before meeting Husband. Um, though I probably should have been more picky.
Oh, you can still use it like a cheap rodeo with Husband :-)
I was picky about my riders, but boy did I have fun when I could!
I love that you swing out and admit to a level of vanity. I have a tough time with that having had a mother who botoxes, lifts, and lipos at the drop of a hat.
