Life Update

Good mornin' lovebugs! 

I feel like it's been ages since I've written an actual post. hmm maybe because it has! oops ;)

The new year already feels like it's flying by. I feel like I haven't even had time to get in a real routine yet. I had all of these wonderful resolutions that I was excited about starting and here I am, 2 weeks in and I haven't done any of them yet. Gah, I've gotta get on that!! 

Maybe I'll hang up my resolutions somewhere so I have to look at them everyday. I am slightly proud of myself though. I did make it to the store tonight to get some healthy foods. If I can get back on track with my eating then working out will be that much easier. After all, I do have some new workout gear that I'm ready to sport ;) 

How have you guys been with keeping up your resolutions? We should have some sort of accountability. Like a linkup day or something. Would any of you be interested in doing that? 

Anyway, I figured the best way to give you an update on my past couple weeks would be through the eye of my phone. 

{I have Dayna to thank for my lovely Bama shirt} :)

Ok these next two aren't taken from my phone...obviously, although I totally wish they were! 

I went out to watch my these sexy men play over the weekend. I'm calling it now- 

Giants/Broncos Superbowl :)

Resolution Reveal!

Good morning lovely lady friends :)

First, I just want to thank those of you who offered some great advice yesterday! I really do appreciate it! I'm excited to finally share my resolutions with y'all today. Well, I'm not sure you could really call them all resolutions, but they are things that I'm aiming to do in 2012. I'm sure you've seen the new 'bucket lists' on pinterest so I decided to use that as inspiration to creatively share mine. :)

This year wasn't the nicest to me, so needless to say I am ready to take hold of 2012 and make it my year. This is only a short list of 'resolutions' as there are some that I just can't put on my little blog right now...cause, you know...certain people could be reading this that I can't share too much info with.

Shall we get started?

I give you my 2012 :)

I'm totally guilty of spending money and having no clue where it actually goes. Next year I'm going to be better about keeping track of it and setting aside money in different accounts. 

Ok, not really a resolution but it's happening! I can hardly contain my excitement!! :)

 Last year I ran a 10k here in town, but this year I already plan on doing the color run in Atlanta. It's only a 5k but hey, it's still a race. And a fun opportunity to meet up with some amazing fellow bloggers. If you're interested, click here.

I definitely got out of the habit of reading for pleasure while I was in school just because I had so much required reading as it was. Next year I wanna change that. And I'm gonna start with my little present from Dayna :)

Soooo guilty of being unhealthy it's not even funny. Now I don't go and get burgers every week and eat out all the time but I'll admit that I'll choose just about anything over an apple. I've gotta start planning meals for the week so I don't get home and pop in a pizza just because I'm tired....and same with bringing lunch. I'll save so much more money if I bring my lunch every week as opposed to going out. 

This one pretty much speaks for itself. Goodbye 2011, hello 2012!

I don't know about y'all but sometimes I get so stressed just thinking of all the things that I need to do, that I end up getting too overwhelmed and not doing any of it. Again, it all starts with making a plan. 

I'm not gonna lie. I complain. A lot. You would think that I have such an awful life sometimes, but that's not even close to being the case. It's just so easy to fuss about what I don't have instead of thinking about what I do have. I'm making an effort next year to be grateful for what I do have.  

The past two years of my life I was basically living for someone else. I did what made that person happy and put myself second. I didn't have a problem doing that at the time, but now that I have another chance I'm going to do what makes me happy. Like I said before, 2012 is going to be my year. :)

This will happen. I always get motivated to workout for a certain event...but once that event is over I just fall back into my old habits and it becomes a vicious cycle. Now, I know I'm not big by any means but I really just want to tone and get in really good shape. I'm 25...this is my prime. That being said, I'm working towards a size 2 for Vegas. 5 months? Totally do-able ;)

I can't believe this is my last post of 2011!

What are some of your resolutions?

I'd love to hear them :)

**Don't forget to enter my giveaway here. You have until next Tues. Jan 3rd.**

xoxo.
