Happy new year morning

It is frigid outside, but at least the sun is shining!

I have decided that I am not making any new year's resolution  (Resolution defined::a firm decision to do or not to do something.)  That seems too harsh and extravagant. .
Instead of making firm resolutions, I am setting goals (Goal defined;  the object of a person's ambition or effort; an aim or desired result.) That seems more manageable to me.

So here are my goals:

!.  To write something everyday- (you already knew that one) 

2. To be more organized by being more mindful and focused (Zen)

3.  Maintain my exercise routine  (Personal trainer on Monday until my sessions run out,gym on Tues, Yoga (since I found a class I love) on Wed., gym in tha a.m. on Thurs and yoga on Thurs night, physical therapy on Fri, rest on Sat, and Yoga on Sunday.  Seems like a lot, but I want to stay on my feet and out of a wheelchair as long as possible.  Not scraping my knuckles on the ground is also appealing.

4.Go digital with my calendar since I still use a date book.  Hello 21st century

5.  Do a Spanish lesson on Duolingo or Babble for at least 15 minutes a day.  I got through high school and college without ever taking a foreign language.  I would like to be able to say more than, "mi casa es su casa".

6.  Figure out what I am doing with my career.  Commit to it or get off the pot!

There are zero other-focused goals on this list, so I need to add one about service or giving or something.  Since my attempt at volunteering was cut off by the shingles, I want to figure out some other way to give back.  

I think I would really like to speak to people about something inspirational or informative, but I would have to make sure my body is up to it.  I really miss speaking to an audience.  Does that make me a little odd?


Anyway, I will try to keep you informed of how I am doimg with reaching my goals!

Have a very happy day
