Resolutions in Review 2012



2012 Resolutions Reviewed
1.  I want to exercise more.  I don't do it nearly enough.  My measurable goal is to take every single class that LA Fitness has to offer.  I have been shying away from particular classes.  Shy away no more.  By the end of this year I will take every single one.
What really happened:  Ummm, I took them all but 2.  Water aerobics, with the argument that I just can't find a cheap suitable bathing suit to wear.  And boot camp, with the argument that I just HATE people yelling at me.
2.  Not only do I want to continue my volunteering with the American Cancer Society, I also want to start volunteering with my church.  This will force me to meet a few more people at church, which lets face it, what church should be about.  It shouldn't be about sitting in the back, and getting in and getting out as fast as possible.
What really happened:  I have continued the volunteering with ACS, and have signed up with a group to make handmade cards at my church, they just haven't met yet.
3.  I want to send a birthday card to all my friends, aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, young and old.  This may not be a big deal to them, but to me it just is.  Last year, I was so lax, forgetting some birthdays and remembering others.  This year I'd like to be on time for all of them.  After all, who doesn't love getting a little snail mail.  I am sorry to those of you who's birthday falls before this date.  You will get a surprise card later in the year.
What really happened:  Ummm, so didn't happen.  Count yourself lucky if you did receive something!  : /  I will try again!
4. I want to go to a new city, state, or country.  I don't know which yet. 
What really happened:  DONE, Italy and France, thank you for helping me reach this resolution!!!!!
5. I want to shop less and get rid of more.  I want to stop buying things just because they are on sale and more because I will use them to the fullest.  While I know it would be impossible for me to stop shopping the clearance racks all together, I want to be more aware of the fact that I might not necessarily need things because they are on sale.  There is never anything I just NEED to have.  And I NEED to remember that.
What really happened:  DONE, but still need improvements!!!!
