Rolling with the Resolutions

I'm not too big into resolutions. With that said, I made a small handful for myself this year with the first resolution being, "I will not tie myself too seriously to my resolutions." With the first resolution set, I added:

1. Host my first blog swap {there is still time to sign up - see previous post}
2. Wear lipstick
3. train for a 1/2 marathon
4. find a "language buddy" to work on my spanish
5. Finish the gigantic list of uncompleted books I have on my bookshelf! This is the tough one as I am notorious for being really into a book and then forgetting all about it for months at a time. Starting on Jan. 1 I had 12 books on this list -- ranging from biographies to theology to historical fiction. Although I probably made it to the half way point of most of these, due to my non-fantastic memory, I'll be starting each from page numero uno.

I'm patting myself on the back today for finishing 2/12ths of the list this week. I loved and highly recommend both!





..."change your life" type of books...

  1. Good resolutions! I have been trying to wear lipstick, but I think the best I'm able to do is tinted lip balm. oh well!

    Good luck training! I'm thinking of doing a half later this year (we will see!). Let me know which one you choose!

  3. Do you want your language buddy to be a native speaker? I spent a semester in Mexico studying Spanish in college and get mad when I realize how much I have forgotten. Want to be buddies?
