I like new beginnings, so being able to start a new year is a pretty cool. Resolutions, however, I feel are not quite as great. Maybe it's because I don't do so well at achieving, or sticking to, my resolutions. In lieu of resolutions, I do reflect and make changes... which if you think about it is really a resolution without calling it one... oh well.
So, somethings I'd like to do this year:
- become healthier/lose weight (cliche I know, but hey, I would like to do it. I even have an amount in mind, but it's that whole not achieving thing that irritates me here.)
- write more, here and some children's stories that I've been working on.
- with before mentioned children's stories, I would like to send them in to have them published... this is a stretch because the stories aren't ready for publishing yet.
- find a permanent school home - although (and this is the first time I've voiced this thought) this year has worn me out - I am certain that I am a teacher, but I can't quite get into the "right groove" (i.e. the right school home) Or maybe I'm delusional and utterly ridiculously optimistic to think that there are teachers who are satisfied with their job, students, work load, administration, etc.
- finish making my house "ours" - this includes painting my bedroom, getting the kitchen finished, and re-do bathrooms.
- be a better wife and mother
We'll see where the year takes us. Hopefully your year is blessed. May it bring you all that you deserve.
