2007 means making things better in life. Things have been stressful in 2006, but I want to make life better for my family and for myself. Normally I wouldn't even include myself (I tend to do everything to make everyone else happy), but it is high time to make life better for me too.
In no particular order: I'd also like to be a better mom. I get so stressed and sometimes take it out on my two children (2 & 3), they are both a handful (son has learning disabilities and a sensory disorder, my daughter also has speech problems)...and I feel like I yell too much. I don't want them growing up hating me or feeling like all I do is yell.
I would like to get my driver's license. I am 27 years old, drive everywhere we go because my husband is on SSD for serious mental health problems, and only have my permit. That will mean taking the 5 hr course for the 3rd time (something has always come up and it expires before I test for my license). Then actually getting the courage to go and take the driving test.
I want to continue with my weight loss...I have lost 75 lbs over the past year and a half and would like to continuing working out/eating better and getting over the plateaus. Included in this is a bit of self acceptance. I want to work on loving myself and who I am, how I look, and how I am.
I want to work on my relationship with my husband too. Not just for the sake of our children, but for the sake of us. With his mental disability things have been difficult. We tend to argue over the littlest things and it happens in front of the kids too. I tend to correct things he does with the kids and need to sometimes let him try. I just need to be more tolerant and hopefully he will work on his part. :)
That seems like a lot, but that is what I need to work on in 2007! It is important to ME, it will be what I need to make ME happy.
