YAY! 2011 is finally here. Last year was neither great nor horrible, just one of those years that you deal with, so here I am in 2011 hoping this year is GREAT, FABULOUS, TERRIFICAL! Come April it will have one fabulous addition, Miss Aspen Noelle Brantley will be making her debut! I should also be graduating from The Art Institute with a degree in Interior Design. Almost a decade in the making but at least I never gave up.
So on to the purpose of this blog post: goals for 2011! (If I write them down somewhere public people can get on me if I am not doing them.)
1. Get to California - ticket is bought, so this should be an easy one ;)
2. Finish school
3. Eat healthier, not going over board but actually making wiser choices in food.
4. Get another room renovated in the house - Aspen's room does not count
5. Work on crossing off some of my 30 before 30!
6. Work on my craft projects. Make some extra cash!!
7. Get a job I appreciate and that appreciates me back.
8. Weed out the bad people in my life. I need more two-way relationships instead of one-way relationships.
9. Get active. . .pregnancy has given me an excuse to be lazy.
10. Put together my recipes.
I think 10 is a good place to stop. These goals aren't set in stone and I am sure some will just get knocked off but these are some of the things that have been needing to get done so there we go.
For 2011, I need to keep telling myself that I am important and worthy of everything that I want. I need to be more selfish with my time and quit wearing myself thin trying to please everyone. I also need to realize that I have feelings and I should express them instead of wearing the happy face all the time. Its important to express myself and quit worrying about how people perceive me. If they want to be a friend they should understand all aspects of me instead of just the good. I am a GREAT person! I just need to remind myself of that!
As I sit here and write this I realize there is so much potential for this year, the things I can do and create. I am ready, bring it on, there is nothing holding me back. Bring it on 2011. I am ready for whatever you have for me!
