Resolutions for Twenty-Eleven

The beginning of a new year is bittersweet... a time of reflection on the previous year and a time of anticipation for new things to come. The past year was amazing for me and my husband. In just 365 days, we made unforgettable memories with new friends and old, bought a house, enjoyed a week at the beach, worked hard in our careers, and the list goes on... I'm proud of how much we accomplished in 2010.
With the new year comes new goals. My primary goal, along with so many others, is to get myself in shape. I started the Couch to 5k running plan several weeks ago, but the holidays did nothing but interrupt my progress. This year, I plan to be ready to run, hopefully competitively, a 5k in April in Clemson. The Easter Bunny Run sounds friendly enough...
Additionally, I want to really stick with a budget this year. Historically, I am not a financially wise gal (I get it honest). This may be the most difficult goal for me, but I'm determined to make improvements.
My last goal for this year is to take advantage of those little daily opportunities to do nice things for other people. I must admit I am not the most thoughtful person, so I am planning to make an effort everyday to help someone else.
By keeping a blog-- and hoping someone reads it occasionally--, I can be more accountable for my resolutions. I look forward to updating my followers on my journey to a bikini-ready body, a money-wise budget, and a considerate mind.
Happy New Year!!
