Resolutions

Hello Friends!

{do I still even have any readers?}

Yes, you can believe it.  It is me!  I am back.  December and January have really kicked my butt and that is why I have been MIA.  You see, at my job we have a "busy season" and boy has it been busy.  In my new position I handle 2 large volume operational tasks and it has been a lot of work.  I come home each night and the last thing I want to do is look at a computer screen.

But things are winding down and it is high time that I write a blog post. Anywho....

Is it too late to share my resolutions for 2015?   Too bad, it's my blog and I will do what I want.

1.  Disconnect - Alex and I have a hard time with putting our smartphones down.  I want to spend more quality time around the people that I love.  I have spent a few days where I just leave my phone in my purse and guess what - I didn't even care that I didn't look at Instagram or Snapchat for a few hours.  Life changing stuff.

2.  I want to read - I used to be a really big reader.  I want to pick that up again.  Currently I am reading Killing Patton {which I don't love} and listening to Unbroken on Audible.   Reading makes me happy.  It is nice to decompress each night by reading a book.

3. Write - My cute friend Erin gave me a 5 year journal for Christmas and I LOVE it.  It has been a great way to journal without having to come up with something interesting on my own.  I also want to blog more and write for fun.

4.  #GetFit - Alex and I both got Vivofit bands as gifts last year {me for my birthday, him for Christmas}.  We hope to live a healthier lifestyle by going to the gym more and eating healthier.   The goal is to make a big change before our Hilton Head trip in May.

5.  Experience - Last year we were able to take some fun trips, go on hikes, spend time with family and just enjoy life.  I want every year to be full of adventures that I can tell my future kids about.  Who is with me?!

6.  Save - We really want to buy a house in 2015.  But with purchasing a home we know that we have to save our pennies.  We set up a budget and I hope to stick to it, and save a little more each month if possible.  The alternate would find a rich uncle that will die and leave me all of his money ;)

Happy 2015! May your resolutions last longer than January.
