It's time for me to check in and see how I'm doing with my resolutions for 2014. I'm coming up on the 1/2 year mark. Here's a recap:
1. I want to run 1,000 miles this year. I was about 50 short last
year. I think if I add a mile a week that should be close to hitting
the 1,000 mile mark. I want to keep doing races, but the races won't be
part of my resolution.
UPDATE: I feel like I'm on track to reach 1,000 miles this year. Right now I'm at around 530 miles, so I'm a little over half way. And since my training for the marathon is going to intensify, I think I will be able to reach this goal.
2. I want to read at least 10 books this year. I get stuck reading
magazines or the newspaper, and I don't read that many books. I want to
change that and do more book reading this year.
UPDATE: I'm still struggling with this one a little bit. Although, I'm currently reading 2 books right now, and I've read a couple so far. I have plans to read a couple more when I'm done with my current books. So I haven't given up on this one yet, but it is going to take a little more work.
3. Continue giving away at least one bag of things a month. I fell
behind last year, and since we will be moving in a year (or two), I'd
like to get rid of more stuff!
UPDATE: I have still been averaging about 2 bags or more a month. So I feel really good about this one, but I'm happy to keep giving away even more!
4. Continue spending time with Jeff on a regular basis. Last year it
was trying to get away at least every other month without the kids. I'd
like to continue that.
UPDATE: Our time away has been sporadic, but we did get away together for a weekend in May, and this July we are going to Cabo for 5 days, so that feels like a real treat. Hopefully we can keep up this tradition of getting away.
5. More blogs! I want to keep writing.
UPDATE: I think I am keeping up with my blogging so far. My goal is at
least once a week, or more if I have time. I am staying with this so
far.
6. Go off Facebook. I will be deleting my account on January 1.
UPDATE: I haven't missed facebook much. A couple of times I've wondered what people are up to. But I try to keep in touch with people through other means, like emails, texts, visits or phone calls. I still haven't decided if I will start up my account again after the first of the year.
So that's it, my 1/2 year update!
