So, I am a creature of habit, and have noticed I am rather picky, which I never thought I was. So...some new things to try, not new year's resolutions, because I will break them, but some new things to try this year. I figure if I write them down, I will be accountable, and will work that much harder at doing them.
1: Dennis got me a guitar for Christmas, which I am totally ecstatic about! I am going to try to learn all the chords and be able to play fluently by the end of this year, given that my growing tummy doesn't get in the way too terribly much.
2: I am also going to try to cook something new every couple of weeks, I use the same recipes over and over and I don't like to deviate, but I'm so bored with everything I cook!
3: I am going to exercise more and watch less tv, I know this one is rather boring, but since dennis got us cable, I find myself loafing around more and more, now it will be less and less. I started exercising last night with my friend Laurie, but we only exercised 15 minutes and stayed and talked another hour and a half, so I don't think that is going to work so well, plus I laid wide awake until 2 am last night, not a good move, considering I had to be at work at 8.
4: I want to make sure the kitchen is clean each night, maybe I'll work with the living room also, but the dishes and putting laundry away are my kryptonite, so I'm going to work on that.
5: Don't start things I won't finish. I do this all the time, I have way to many projects, that I think are great ideas, but I don't finish any of them!
6: Play games and be more social more often, I am out of the dental hygiene school slump, I should be able to enjoy people again.
7: Planning a budget and sticking to it. I think this would be a wise thing to do, considering we made double last year than we did the year before and we have absolutely nothing to show for it, except a new bed that still isn't paid off, and a pile of bills that will progressively get bigger over the next 6 months. I did get a Kitchenaid, though, no thanks to my brother Jared, who led me to the deal of a lifetime! I love my Kitchenaid.
8: Be more positive and faith-filled. I struggle with these things, which, isn't normal for me, but for some reason, negativity and doubt have crept into my life, I like to call it being realistic, but no one seems to agree with me.
9: Be a blogger, this is fun and I'm sure will be addicting. I know not everyone wants to read what I have to say, but like I said in the beginning, it's somewhat therapeutic for me.

My dishes are Krptonite, too!!! What a good way to describe them. I'm going to tell Matt - now maybe he'll understand why I hate doing them so much - they are bad for me! :)
