As I haven't blogged in a long time, I guess I am re-evaluating that as well. Life has it's twists and turns. Thank God for that. You meet new people, change some preferences and learn about yourself. It keeps it interesting, you know? As I re-evaluate some things since I have started blogging, I've learned a little bit as well and thought I would share that with you.
1. My goal of weight loss is well on it's way. I've been happily working out anywhere from three to six times a week, and eating healthy. Although after this week's conference, where I was traveling for two days, I ate horrible and wouldn't be surprised that I gained some back. No worries though, I really enjoy working out and am looking forward to a workout in the morning, and falling back into the routine of eating well again.
2. I really wanted to blog a lot of my scrapbook stuff, and ended up blogging a lot more about cards more than my pages. So, we'll see how that goes. It isn't easy to just get the pictures of everything I do, or pick what I really want to focus on to blog about. Live and learn, and continue with goal making.
3. My goal of a dirty job for each day was truly aimed for the summer, and I think over the summer I did a decent job of it. Now for spring break (which I am eagerly anticipating) I will have to pull out my list of dirty jobs, again. I think now they are going to include putting new cabinets in the kitchen and washing some handprints off my walls. Some of those handprints, obviously made by the adults in this house, are ready to come off. The lower handprints on my walls really need to come off; however, the memory of them and cleaning them off is something I hope to treasure forever.
4. A scrapbook entitled, "A week in the life" has yet to become to anything. . . hmmm. This one is still on my mind and still a desire to get done.
5. Next there comes this thing. . . and this is what has been on my mind for a while. My word for the year. Well, my word for the year is happiness. I am a generally happy person but strive to make happiness the center of my being. Happiness for my self and my family. Happiness in the decisions I make. Happiness as a whole part of my life, not just a sometimes at home, and shown always in public. This theme for my year has become an obsession, and something I have been dwelling on. My desire to make happiness encompass all of the sections of my life and being.
6. I also have a goal to learn something new everyday. This goal, I think, should be important to everyone in the world. When you stop learning, you stop bettering yourself, you stop evolving, you stop growing, you stop, period. I honestly can name multiple things I have learned in the past few days, especially due to attending the most recent
Minds In Motion conference. And, I don't limit learning just to knowledge of information, but include learning about people.
So as I re-evaluate where things are heading with this blog, I have also re-evaluated where things are going with my goals as well. Hang on for the ride, and I hope you enjoy what's to come!
