Good-Bye 2009!

Sonny and I partying it up... Good-bye 2009!

Can you believe its already 2010!? Its really hard to believe that an entire year has already gone by. I had a few resolutions last year that I actually was able to keep! I hope this year I am just as stubborn with keeping to them. This year is going to be a good one... I can feel it.

Resolution #1: Watch My Diet
I think everyone and their moms puts this resolution on their list. Its the #1 reason the gyms are packed to the walls every year. All that over indulging over the holidays sometimes gets some of us in trouble. Since September, I've been more aware of the things I consume and from that I've been able to drop a few pounds. I feel so much better about cutting some of my guilty pleasures out of my diet (my favs are like peanut butter, chocolate and bread). There is nothing really better than being able to zip up the skinny jeans without the muffin top!

Resolution #2: Clear the clutter!
I am already such a OCD freak. But I know there are boxes in the garage and in storage that need some sorting. Sometimes we hang on to things that we have no use for anymore and it just creates so much clutter. Sonny and I sometimes catch that show Hoarders on A&E.... and well if you've seen it then you know how disgusted you are by some of these people.

Resolution#3: Exercise everyday.
Sometimes its hard to make it to the gym, especially after work. But now that I work for a company that has a gym I really have no excuse not to even do 30mins on the Treadmill. Also this year I have promised Sonny that I would join him Dragon Boating. I already went this past Saturday... and well I was sore for 2 days. Gotta work up the endurance and strength!

Resolution #4: Learn something new!
I've been itching to learn something new! I don't know what yet.... Maybe learn how to play a cool instrument or speak another language. I gotta figure it out... and of course you know I'll be blogging about it!

Resolution #5: Volunteer.
Disney has got a great campaign this year about volunteering. It makes me wanna go out there and find something wonderful to do with my free time. My work even gives us 2 paid days to volunteer and I have yet to use mine! *tisk tisk*

Resolution #6: Be greener.
I think I'll start by actually using all those canvas totes I've got laying around the house. Seriously its kinda insane how many we have. That... and I'd like to compost.

Resolution #7: Be financially fit.
I just gotta save more for the future. The more and more Sonny and I talk about the things we'd like to accomplish in the next few years the more I've realized that shopping sprees and over indulgent weekends just creates road blocks for us. Can't lie though... sometimes its hard to say no to all those Gilt Group emails I get every morning! But I must resist...

Resolution #8: Travel.
Son and I didn't do much traveling last year. So this year we are determined to see the world. We've got a Mexican Cruise coming up in February and Sonny's sister's destination wedding in the Dominican Republic in June! Next up is Europe in the Fall... just gotta coordinate with our travel agent and that will be good to go!!

I think that's a pretty decent list of goals for 2010! Kinda do-able in a not so scary way.

Hello 2010....
