Every year since I was probably 12 I made the new years resolution to "lose weight" or "diet" and I am not going to lie, every year I know that its not going to happen. So this year I have decided to do away with the new years resolutions that I know that I wont or cant keep, this year I have decided to make it more real. I am going to focus on my family and friendships, and taking better care of myself (and by that I dont mean to diet) I mean flossing, washing my face every night before bed, get more sleep, not eat as much sugar, drink more water, not eat out so much, try not to spend money just because I have it, no more wasteful spending, my kids do not need every toy that they see, and I dont need to buy something just for the sake of buying it. I am going make more time for me,and to be more patient with my family, try harder to work with the boys with school work, and read to my kids more, have more conversations with my husband, and for that matter my dad and brothers. Take time out to stop and visit my grandparents, and talk to my cousins more. I want to not be such a flake, and make more time to spend with my friends.
I am not perfect so I know that some of these things might not be something I do on a regular basis, but my intentions are to try harder. I know I will flake out, and not be as patient as I would like, but like I said I am going to try.
