Listen to ME, Life!: Happy New Year!

Happy New Year! 2012 was a great year. No one had to stay overnight in the hospital. Cade started playing sports again (his 1st touchdown and sac were fabulous and brought tears to my eyes). Whitney started middle school and band (and no one has broken her flute). Jeff expanded his welding shop to include a tire shop. I am a much healthier and happier Moma. We are blessed with a great family and great friends.

Now on to 2013, Jeff was in bed by 9pm and asleep by 930pm. Cade was asleep by 1030pm. Whitney stayed up til 2013 and watched the ball drop. I was awake at midnight but was in bed watching TV. We are party animals!

Do you make resolutions for the New Year? I haven't written down resolutions in years. I am this year.

13 in 2013...I am running 13 races in 2013 including The Big D Half Marathon (Dallas TX) in April and The Route 66 Half Marathon (Tulsa OK) in November.
Lose 30 more pounds...will this get me to my final maintainable goal weight? I don't know, I may get to the 30 pound mark and decide that my body needs/can handle loosing another 10-15 pounds. I will know when I know.
Tone my tummy and arms.
Write my blog consistently.
Become a more organized housekeeper.
Take a family photo every week for 52 weeks.
De-Clutter the office.
Cook healthier meals.

I started the year off right by running 2.4 miles this morning. It was cold. I like to make sure that I am visible to passing cars.
