Digressive Ramblings

Hey there pretty lady, You are pretty amazing. You're good at what you do, you have a boyfriend that thinks you're a babe and the VP of your company likes you. Oh and you're out of bad debt and you almost own your car. You're making it! Your great, don't stress things will keep being good. You deserve it! Love, me

Please don't think you need to react to any of these (that statement will make sense in a minute)... this is yesterday btw Today: woke up hit snooze hit snooze shower Dad came in and told me my grandpa died met Danica to carpool went to work worked meeting meeting team lunch meeting call with legal work paid LAST payment on my credit card  temple dinner with friends bed What a day!

So I'm not very good at New Years Resolutions, but I seem to be good at Birthday (or after my birthday) resolutions so I thought I'd do that again this year... and now I'm posting it for the world to see to hold me accountable. Finish paying off all my debt (minus student loans- that's still like 5 yrs out) Size 8... it's only one size down I know I can do it! Use my passport for somewhere other than Canada (it's embarrassing that it's the only country on that) Run a 5k Run a 10k Be ready for the Disneyland Marathon (half?) Take at least a semester of Spanish... by my birthday I could be almost done with a 2nd semester. Love more. This may expand but it's pretty lofty right now!

So I've never been a big fan of New Years Resolutions because 1. it only gives me a year to complete it 2. everyone expects you to fail and 3. well I can never think of what I want to resolve. I would like to think I'm constantly growing and improving myself and that I don't need a new year to make a change in my life. So here's my list of things I hope to accomplish in the next 5 years, and because I have OCD I've breaking it into sections. Financial- No more loans :) Own property... or at least start owning property... which might negate #1 but that is more in reference to student loans and my car payment. Contribute more that what I currently to my 401k... it's a pretty pathetic amount, but to contribute more I need to earn more! Educational- I would like to take the following classes: Spanish or become conversational in French since I've wasted so much time on that language already. Cake decorating Flower arranging Pilates Belly dancing ...
