Happy New Year!

Wow--2007!  I have a few resolutions for this year, so for posterity's sake (or so that I can laugh NEXT New Year's Day) I'll post them:

Lose 30 pounds.  This must happen.  Back in 2001, I lost 50 lbs. in 6 months (I had a wedding to attend.).  Well, fast forward 5.5 years, and 40 of those pounds have crept back on.  I'll be happy losing 25, 30 would  be great--40...I just don't know if I would be able to maintain my pre-wedding weight.

Become a runner!!  I want to build endurance.  I want to be able to go out and run for 30 minutes, enjoy the great outdoors and get a good workout.  I'm following an 8 week 0-3 miles workout program.  Today I walked/jogged for 25 minutes.  My lower legs are killing me.

Learn how to sew & quilt.  I bought myself a sewing machine two weeks ago.  I am terrified of it!  My mom assures me that I cannot break it--I'm not convinced.  Anyway, once I master the bobbin, it's on to machine quilting!  I'm so excited!

Balance my Pampered Chef business & homeschooling--Okay, okay, stop laughing!  It can be done (granted, I haven't done it so well yet, but I serve a big God!).  I need to be more organized (who doesn't?)--I'm looking forward to getting back into the swing of things this week!

That's about it.  I'll post my progress!

  1. WOW-those are some major resolutions!! I'm impressed! I only made one this year-that everyone in the family has their very own personal Bible reading time. LOL. I guess if I don't try attain much, I want fail much-LOL.

    No, I really want the kids especially to be accountable for their own Bible reading. I've even got the 2 yr old looking at a cloth Busy Bible while I tell her the stories.

    And my dh is keeping his Bible in the bathroom to get his Bible reading in-LOL.

    Did you get that leak taken care of? How was your Christmas? Love, Holly(applesofgold)
