I don’t usually make New Years resolutions, purely because I don’t think you need a specific time or date to specify when you should try and resolve to be a better person or quit annoying habits. And I don’t think that necessarily cycles of your life follow a typical “year”. New Year to me usually isn’t a big deal, and this year was no different, except I was ready for some new goals, I was ready at the end of 2011 to begin a new cycle and I was ready to make some plans and goals and actually follow them through. So now, after living with them for a month, and re evaluating things I’m putting them out there.

I want to lose weight and get fit: I know I know, I can basically HEAR your eyes rolling. But for me this has been on the cards for 2 years. With my 2nd pregnancy, I put on over 40 kgs. FORTY! I’m carrying at least 17 of that baby weight now.. so it’s time for that to get out of HERE

I want to focus more on upskilling myself: do some online courses etc.

I want to focus more on blogging: like, do it regular and stuff. zomg?!

I want to focus more on my etsy shop: I really want to keep doing this little hobby, so I’ll be spending the years searching high and low for things to add to my shop.

I want to start a business: I don’t know what yet, so that’s going to be a challenge, lucky I have a whole YEAR.

I want to get a job: keep working hard, get more work, and get some income!!

These are the core goals that I plan on sticking too, obviously there is the whole, be more organized, get up earlier, be a better parent, be a better cook, be more time efficient etc etc etc…

A belated Happy New Year to you all!

2012, bring it on!!
