Looking forward.

I really hate resolutions, so I am not making any this year.  I know I've said this before, but this time I mean it.  Resolutions, like for so many other people, seem to have the opposite effect on me than what they are intended to do.  So I'm just not.  I like the trajectory I am on in terms of being active, eating well, taking care of the house, and completing projects.  Still, I am really looking forward to 2013 and keeping on, keeping on...

• Starting a bootcamp next week with a friend from work. 
• Reading, reading, reading ... using the library as much as possible.
• Finishing the facelift we're doing on our little home gym.
• Tackling our other house to-do projects like installing new flooring, painting the basement, re-carpeting stairs, painting built-in bookcases, replacing bathroom vanities, and other updates
• Cutting back on meat consumption and experimenting with more vegetarian/plant-based meals.
• Being as healthy (physically, financially, environmentally) as possible before we start trying to have a kid.
• Joining a boxing gym for some variety in workouts.
• Making time to visit friends & family out of town and staying connected with our people in town too
• Joining the book club that my sorority alumni association does once a month
• Getting a clean bill of health at my next appointment with the no-no doctor
• Working on projects and development at work to build up skills, experience, and expertise
• Turning the things I put on Pinterest into completed recipes, projects, and outfits

I just have this great feeling that this is going to be a good year.  Like we're on the cusp of something really awesome.  I love that feeling - it's my favorite thing about this time of year.

What are you looking forward to this year?
