Ok I can honestly say I survived last night. Well it was easy because I was with my kids watching the ball drop. Perfect start to the new year.
Now it is down to business. The List of all those crazy ideas, promises, declarations, proclamations, intentions, self improvement, spiritual journeys, finding your purpose, finding yourself, finding that special person, and the list of reasons goes on and on and on.... Until you realize HELLO.... I really need to be realistic, thinking I can really change myself after yes I will say it 42 years of being me. Really change? Not so much.....
1. I am always trying to self improve hello I am alive right.
2. Spiritual journey Get a Bible go to church.. hey here is a thought just talk to the Big Guy..Hi God it is me...there you go simple.
3. Find your purpose.. Geezz your purpose is to live and not over think every detail sometimes stuff just happens. Remember my mantra from last year....What are you in control of truly control of... the answer BTW is YOU!!
4. Finding yourself ok this is mean but get a damn mirror. You can always ask a friend to smack you because that is just stupid.
5. Finding that special person.... OK well not really sure about how to do that sooooo moving on.
Don't make promises or declarations that you can't possibly meet. So this year my list is going to be on going. I figure there are many things I have yet to discover that need my attention.
THE LIST
1. Healthy lifestyle all that applies..not weight loss, not exercise regimens; just do what I know and enjoy.
2. Stop cursing so much... ok I know Mrs. Seiters please don't be mad... it really is only when driving, or riding my bicycle, or if I burn myself, or stump my toe, or I am mad at my crazy neighbor whose dog poops in my yard... ok I am already improving.
3. Try not to be so judgemental I don't think I judge people in the sense most people think. I just expect a lot out of adults. I need to understand that the way I roll (which is the smartest way) is not the way other people roll. I need to stop getting so caught up and realize take it or leave it. Ugh but they really make me so mad.
4. Wash my car every other week.
5. Blog every Sunday.
6. OK THIS IS A BIGGY. I am REALLY going to try and not show my emotions or feelings. Example: when I do not particularly like a person... some how they know! I don't say anything it just shows. I really need to stop this because I know it is not nice. I do like pretty much everyone...but those few that I do not like..well I do have a good reason. I do not like mean people. I do not like it when people make others feel less. So that is usually where my death glare comes into play.
7. - infinity I am just going to leave these open for now.
Well there you have it... My LIST!!! What is on your Realistic Resolution list? Think about it carefully because everyone wants to feel successful. Make your list something that is not difficult start slow. As you reach your goal then you will begin to feel great. This is my theory. You can take it or leave it!!!

Sometimes cursing is therapeutic...as long as you keep your windows closed, that is. :-)
