2009 NY Resolutions.
1) Drink more water. I was doing so well until I went back to school and stopped caring. I felt so much better when I was drinking water all day, every day. Mom really only drinks Diet Coke and chocolate milk. Using a faucet isn't rocket science! And I'm totally an adult too, so I can easily buy my own juice so that there is juice in the house. So, I'm going to start back up with that. See you later sodas, hello clear skin!
2) Beat my coffee addiction. I will do it. I will do it. Not only will this save money but it will be better for me. I will do my morning coffee to start and I will make it at home. One coffee a day. Ok, maybe two to start but by March I want to be down to one coffee a day.
3) Start saving money/Pay bills on time.. I'm going to open an RRSP account because I should have done it 4 years ago. There is no reason why I can't throw $50 a month in there for now until I get myself sorted after school. My future is important to me. I will also get my Roger's bill under control. I will. I've taken the first steps and fixed up my monthly plan so there is absolutely no reason why I should ever be paying more than $47 a month. This will be paid on time if not early every single month. I've also got my raise happening in January so that extra $40 a month is automatically going onto my Visa bill on top of what I pay now. This will for surely help me get that thing more under control. I will stick to my budget. I will stick to my budget. I will stick to my budget.
4) Practice gratitude. I've always been a very grateful person but I'm going to be even more vocal about it. I'm going to say, "Thank you" every single day. I'm going to start telling people more often how grateful I am for their friendship, understanding, help, laughter, memories, spare change, wild nights of sex, extra pickles, not picking their noses in public etc. etc.
5) Smile more often/ Not sweat the small stuff. I'm such a huge worrier but it's really beginning to take it's toll. I feel like a crazy person.
6) Get over my nose.. I pretty much know I'm an awesome person and that I have a pretty decent personality but I need to get over my body woes. I will never be Britney Spears. Ever. I love pasta and bread too much. Sure I should probably cut back (and I will try) but it's not on my top to-do list, this year. But my nose? I need to get over it. I'll never have the money to go for surgery and even if I did, I'd probably chicken out. I need to just accept it. I can't get rid of it, might as well embrace it!
I think I can do it guys, but I'm leaving this stickied just to make sure.
