My New Year's Resolutions

I don't make a big deal of New Year's Eve. 

I don't go out & party. I don't watch the ball drop or New Year's Rocking Eve or any of those shows. I don't eat black eyed peas & cabbage or whatever the traditional foods are on New Year's Day. But I do make resolutions.

This year I made 3 New Year's resolutions. 

Here they are...

1. Lose 20 lbs... that I gained since starting crossfit. I know that some of the weight I gained was muscle, but definitely not all of it was. I really let go of making healthy food choices & stopped cooking as much as I used to. So I need to get back to that & lose those 20 lbs I gained.

2. Run 500 miles... I haven't been running as much since I've been doing crossfit. But I'm stopping crossift & want to get back into running. It feels good, clears my head & keeps me thinner! 500 miles sounds like a lot, but really it's quite manageable. Breaks down to just 10 miles a week. (I'm already at 8 for the year so far, just 492 to go!)

3. Update my blog at least once a week... I write this blog not only so my family & friends can see pictures of the kids & keep up with our family, but also for myself. I'm not into scrapbooking, so this is my way that I can have all my pictures & memories nice & organized. So I get disappointed when I fall behind. I'm hoping to write more than once a week, but at least once a week will keep me happy!

And there you have it, my 3 simple resolutions. 

They should be easy enough to keep, don't you think?
