Another Year Another Lie... ?

Well, it's gonna be 2007. I'm that much closer to 40. My kids are both toddlers, now. And my husband... well, we'll leave that there. I'm married.

My first, and primary, resolution, is to take better care of myself. That includes getting organized within 'my space'... purse, car, house... I think better, I think, when I can reach my stuff. Emotionally, mentally, spiritually, I would like to be "un-cluttered".

Secondarily, as long as I'm "un-cluttering", I'd like to abandon the 'junk-in-the-trunk' and get my body into shape. And I don't want to continue on with the round one I've currently inhabited. I'd like something closer to an hour-glass, with a visible waist-line, as opposed to a waste-line.

I know that both of these 'resolutions' are a great amount of work, alone, let alone together. I know they both will require some considerable amount of self-observance. I am preparing myself, now, by practicing the observation parts. I observe myself eat an individual potato chip, as opposed to a handful. I observe myself throw away one (tiny) receipt from my purse, (which doubles as my personal filing cabinet,) instead of stuffing five more in. I'm sure I'll get the hang of it.

I am looking forward to "change"... it will take a LOT of getting used to, but as I've said, I'm preparing myself.

 Happy New Year!!
