Personal resolutions:
1. Do not spend more than I earn
*Update: I've been doing pretty well with this one. I've been working more, doing supervisions at school events and selling stuff I don't need, which helps also. But, January's budget was pretty decent.
2. Keep house clean
*Update: Not bad on this one. I'm cleaning a bit every day, and though sometimes I feel like all I do is clean (and wonder occasionally where the gremlins are who dirty the place when I turn my back), it's worth it.
3. Complete yoga teacher training
*Update: In process. I begin training in a few days.
4. Make a decision about mortuary science (apply this year or next?)
*Update: Finished. I'm waiting a year.
5. Run at least three times a week
*Update: Hmm...no so much on this one. Haven't even started.
6. Run a half-marathon
*Update: No yet! Going to have to do #5 before this one.
7. Do yoga five times a week
*Update: I'm building to this. This past week I did four classes. Next week it's full board--five a week.
8. Once a month, fill at least one bag to give to charity or consignment
*Update: Hmm...still need to do this. I will do this tomorrow.
9. Keep my weight where it is--maximum
*Update: So far so good!
Writing resolutions:
1. Send out five submissions a month
*Update: Done! I actually sent out sixteen...trying to get ahead because I don't know that I'll be able to send out during Feb or March because of yoga teacher training. Plus one to grow on.
2. Write one story a month
*Update: Well, I did write. Not a full story, but I did put words to paper. So, I'll count that a partial success.
3. Journal at least three times a week (in a hard copy--not blogging...though I'll blog like a fiend
in 2009!)
*Update: Not yet. I need to do this. But, whenever I think about writing stuff down, there's just so much in my head. Gotta think of it "one word at a time" and just get going.
4. Read six books on craft
*Update: I'm in process here...reading a book on poetry at the moment.
5. Read 26 books (either fiction or non-fiction...this will lead into Book Plan 2009)
*Update: I've read one book so far this year. One a month won't quite cut it. So, must get better at this one.
