New start

Today is significant for me or atleast I was hoping for it to be. It marks the beginning of a positive new chapter. The last chapter was well, in short not one that I ever want to repeat. A long year of a trial that I wish I could say made me better b/c of it. I have mixed feelings of how I responded to the choices I made with a person that I am relieved to be out of my life. I wish that I could have been a better friend, mentor, support sytem to, and I just was not. Maybe there was nothing I could have done differently or maybe I could have done it all differently. I just don't know. All I can think to do now is simply move on and learn from it. Make new goals.

So here goes....

1. I will make no more major decisions without tons of thought and prayer
2. Pray (haven't done that consistantly in so long I am ashamed to admit it)
3. Stay committed to what I say I am going to do.
4. Take care of me (eat better, exercise, go to sleep early)
5. Find something that brings me joy and do it often
6. Give my husband the best part of me and not what's left at the end of the day
7. Read one book a month
8. Cook a brand new recipe once a week
9. Make no more excuses for why these goals can't start now

I want to look back when I turn 30 amd say I accomplished most all of these goals.
They may sound pretty general but this whole public "journal" still makes me a little nervous, so I guess this is a start?
