New Year Resolutions!

While planning our New Years party, resolutions kept creeping in my head. Should it be lose weight this year? I haven't ever been extremely motivated to lose weight. Should I try to quit smoking this year? Last time I tried that, I was horribly mean to everyone and don't really want to go back there. Be more positive. YES! Let's write that down somewhere! Maybe a post it on the mirror. The more party planning I get into, the more stuff comes to me...try harder to keep the friendships that are slipping away? Those that were once good friends slip into friend then into acquantaince? That one I've got to think about some more. Why put more effort into something that isn't getting any in return? Yep, let's think on that some more. Spend more time with my daughter!!!! Ooooo, that's a good one!!! Although she's here and I'm here, we are both mostly in two different worlds. She's always "plugged in" to something..IPad, TV, IPhone, whatever. I'm either cooking, cleaning, changing a diaper, or dealing with the little kids. I need time just for my girl, so I'm going to make it happen. Teach the kids to play canasta. YES! Found another good one! This one might take the help of Mom, cause I don't have a super amount of patience, but the big kids are old enough to learn. Let the competitiveness begin!  The card. There's my number one resolution. We are going to get as close as possible to paying off this card. I have played around with all of the numbers and it's possible. IT'S POSSIBLE. I can have this card that is killing me paid off by New Years next year. That is so exciting to me I can't even describe it. The sun, moon, planets have to align just right it seems, but it's possible!!!  We might have to eat Ramen two nights a week or something, but I have got to get this thing paid off. I can do it!!! And it would be such a stress reliever on Dennis and I want that for him. SO!
1. Pay off credit card.
2. Spend more, alot more, time with Jess.
3. Teach the big kids to play canasta.
4. Be more positive. Already started (I've edited most of the neg out of this blog already! Twice.)
I hope everyone has a great New Year's and a fabulous (super sparkly) 2013!!!
