January Follow Up: 12 in ‘12
  1. Work hard. Make New Job a career, rather than just another job. Still loving New Job!
  2. Read more. Given all the free time I had, I didn’t read nearly enough this past year. Uh…I read one book this month. 
  3. Eat less. Dear self, there is no reason to eat multiple helpings at dinner. Stop that. Much better!
  4. Eat more. Veggies, that is. Much better!
  5. Wake up. Hit snooze less. Eat breakfast. You know, be an adult. I still hit snooze about a thousand times but I’ve gotten better about eating breakfast.
  6. Walk more. If it worked for Andie, who knows - maybe it’ll work for me. Been walking home (approx. 2 mi.) from work a few times per week.
  7. Save money. Unemployment taught me a lot about unnecessary spending. Keep up the good habits. Given that I won’t get paid till the end of time, this is a non-issue.
  8. Stay in touch. Even if it’s just a quick “miss you!” email. So far, so good!
  9. Clean up. Like Clare, I’d like to keep the apartment clean enough so that someone can just drop by and I won’t want to die from embarrassment. I’ve gotten better. Ish.
  10. Clean often. Establish a weekly/monthly/whatever cleaning routine so this doesn’t happen. Nope.
  11. Make the bed. My mom is right: there’s something to be said for getting into a made bed. You know you’re a grown up when…
  12. RELAX. I can’t control everything, and you know what? That’s okay. I’ve gotten better about this, assuming I’m not PMS-ing. HA!

2012, I’m liking you so far.
