A quote from my New Year Eve post:
"There are few things I will do my best to accomplish in 2010:
- I will do my best to rebuild my credit and my savings account
- I will do my best to take care of my mind, body and soul
- I will continue spending quality time with my family and I will continue making happy memories and new traditions
- I will do my best to change or make some body's life better every month of the year
- I will LIVE...LAUGH...LOVE without any regrets. I will say what I mean and I will mean what I say....no excuses."
This is the last day of January and it is time to look back and see how I did with my resolutions.
#1 I found a way to pay off completely our cellphone bill, our Sears and Future Shop credit cards as well as our small, but high interest personal loan. I am not able to save as of yet, but we are bringing more money in then we are paying out. I am sticking to our budget and our life is coming back to normal.
#2 MIND - I am listening and learning with Tony Robbins. I am learning everyday how to build and run better websites. I am working on my writing skills.
BODY - I started regular exercise and I lost another 4lbs. I pay better attention to what I eat. I try to drink more water.
SOUL - I take more time for myself to do what I enjoy. I do yoga and I try to meditate when I get overwhelmed. I started to read daily scriptures and I start the day with a prayer.
#3 I spend quality time with Mr.Misery when he's home for few days here and there. I try to spend one on one time with my boys every day. We are finding ways to make new memories.
#4 I made a promise to support my son's school's Breakfast Club by donating fresh baked goods 2-3 times a month. Boys and I donated large box of food items to our local Food Bank.I organized and ran 3 day hockey tournament for Little Peanuts team. I slip few dollars here and there to people who are down on their luck without their knowledge. I donated to Haiti through my boys schools and we also supported bake sale for Haiti.
Please, do not take #4 as me tooting my own horn. I am just taking stock and making sure that I am doing what I set out to do also I do not want nor need any acknowledgement for doing this.
#5 I am having so much fun following this one. New world opened up to me and yes, I am saying what I mean and I make no apologies for my opinions. My best friend is loving it....aren't you (I know you are reading this).
So the way I see it I am on my way to Happiness in full speed.

Your are doing GREAT! I do like yoga but I am not good at meditation.I'm having a concentration problem.I think that's why i prefer pilates. Also i use my indoor bike often even though sometimes becomes boring:)
Have a great Sunday!
I didn't think you were tooting your own horn, at all. I think it's wonderful to donate where you feel led.
Great job in January!!! I know you can maintain your goals!!
good job! its so nice to feel like "on track" with resolutions
You're doing great!
Congratulations on following through on your resolutions. They're all wonderful and it sounds like it's made you a happier person.
I didn't make any resolutions this year (except to get more exercise and I make that one every year), but I love the ones you have made.
Well done you!
I think it is a great idea to take stock at the end of each month. And it is great to see you making progress.
