GFTW 2: Ready to Begin Anew...

Whew! And we're back! Actually we left 5am Friday from D-land to bolt back home to have a lil' down time before yet ANOTHER mini tiny kid b-day party for em' Sat (two thumbs up for a Round Table Pizza back room for 1.5 hr kid party!) and ANOTHER friend's kid b-day party Sun- I'm finally ready for 2012. 


And not just because of desperately needing to detox from the December debauchery. But because 2011 was a harder year in general for me. Granted- with all hardships come equal amounts of growth and untapped strength discovered, but still, it was hard. From my mom's diagnosis and yearlong treatment of cancer (she's completely recovered and doing fine now), to personal axioms tested- I was tapped in deep areas of my life.


So I see 2011 as the groundwork laid for great things to flourish in 2012. I just know it. I feel it. It's like my sixth sense telling me to keep looking up at the horizon. Like I've built the tracks, the road, the way...for things to come, so just keep looking up and out as the road will guide me...


And with the vision of my lil' A embracing her inner Snow Princess New Year Spirit at Disneyland as my Guide...here's what I have lined up for my Goals for the Week:


Mom: Thank you notes from kids for xmas and b-day! oy. Sign up for art lessons and gymnastics


Athlete: 5 days of 60 min of run/wts, bike/wts or stretch. I day of 30 min wts


Health: WATER, normal dessert no mas dulces! ~1450 cal a day


Wife: Mix up our regular nightly routine of dessert and t.v. at least 2 days with maybe hanging out in different parts of the house, talking, reading...gettin' busy...who knows!


Personal Growth: Artist Date with my new intuitive guidance tapes:)


As always, I write these goals down on a bookmark I keep in my organizer and review them each day as part of my morning routine. And this is what I have going on for me over here in my neck of the woods. Now...I'd love to know...what do YOU have going on over in your hood? Talk to me, talk to me!
