resolutions: top 11 in 2011


Top 11 resolutions for 2011:
1) Get moving.  This last year just felt crazy all around... and I'm ready to get in gear.  I'm not making any specific goals other than to make better use of my gym membership and enjoy the outside when I can. 
2) Read more books.  Like these classic Penguin books.  I'm not opposed to judging a book by it's cover - find me a cute cover and I'm sold.  {I use the same philosophy when it comes to wine!}
3) Cook more.  I want to cook more to try new things, save some green, and eat more green.  Time to make better use of my crockpot with this fabulous book from mom.
4) Get organized.  It's time to give everything a 'home' {and remember where that home is}.  I feel some spring cleaning coming up!
5) Stress less.  I worry too much about the small things in life.  I cling to these words to remind me my worry is just not worth it.
6) Love more.  We can all love more through our words and actions.  I want to be nicer, speak kinder, listen better, extend grace, support better, and ultimately love better.  Life's too short not to love! 
7) Save more.  It's time to re-evaluate where the cash goes.  I think I can forgo a few lunches / dinners / happy hours and put that money to better uses.
8) Give more.  I am beyond blessed.  I've been given earthly wealth that I hope we are wise enough to invest in things that matter and help those who need it most. 
9) Snuggle more.  I love spending time with the mister.  He blesses me every day and I am one lucky lady.  So maybe this year he will get some more snuggles! :)
10) Grow.  I want to grow my mind and spirit this year.  Maybe I'll finally finish my certification or take on something new with work. 
11) Stay connected.  I want to do a better job keeping up with friends and family this year.  This is where you come in - have a blog? Let me know!  Want to meet up?  Let's do coffee!

Cheers to a fabulous 2010 and a warm welcome to 2011!

happy new year's eve!


Happy New Year's eve!  Hope you have a wonderful time ringing in the new year!  I can't believe 2011 is only hours away.  How will you be celebrating tonight?  Big bash or small gathering?  We are keeping it low-key this year with a few friends and a lot of fun.  Then it will be time to get real with resolutions... but for now, it's party time!  Good-bye 2010 - you were good to us... but can't wait to see what 2011 brings!
