It's all about the follow through

Post #1. Still in the first week of the year. Nice

I spent last night cleaning out the spare room and moving the bookshelves around to get ready for my new desk. (Settle in to the house resolution: check!) I am going to get my desk tomorrow, along with a few other accessories, and hope to be all set up by the weekend.

Then it will be time to work on schoolwork. Did I mention that I sent in my first assignment today? (Schoolwork resolution: check!) So far, so good. The course appears to be fairly easy and I could probably write the exam and pass without doing any of the work... ah, brings me back to the good ol high school days. The big plus here being that the guidance counselor has no jurisdiction to fail me for truancy. Also, you are not supposed to show up to class. Win win!

I have not travelled anywhere yet, and today I booked a week's holidays at the end of February. I am planning a staycation, during which I will pledge to do one home improvement project, one large school project, and one personal improvement project (spa, anyone?). (Spend more time at home resolution: check!)

And poor old diet and exercise get the shaft in my New Year's Resolution Recap. I know. You are shocked. How uncharacteristic of me. I admit it, tonight I ate a half of a bag of tacos for dinner Ah well, you can't have it all, all of the time. I am thinking about shopping for a non bikini/non hideous bathing suit (that's a tall order for anyone, not just those of us who eat our dinner out of a foil bag) so that I can join AquaFit classes at the local Y. I think AquaFit will make me feel better. Not to mention thinner and younger. Last time I went to AquaFit I was about 200 lbs. lighter than everyone else in the class, except the lady with the walker. This time, I promise not to immediately counter the effects of the exercise by capping it off with a cheeseburger and a pint of beer.

I think I will give myself a B on the New Years Resolutions so far. Photos of my office, and possibly some of the bunnies (they turned white to match the snow!) will follow.
