Okay, we all know how I handle long-term resolutions (like not buying yarn for 6 months). I suck at it, but I think if I set a hand full of goals for a month, maybe I can handle it. I mean, it's only 31 days, how hard can it be, right? RIGHT?
So, here goes:
1 Shocker I know, but the first goal is not to buy any new yarn this month. None. Not even if I decide to make someone a gift that I somehow don't have the yarn for. If it ain't in the stash, it ain't getting made.
2 I will go to the gym three days a week over the course of the next month. I have to take Bean to school anyway, might as well hit the gym while I'm over that way.
3 I will avoid fast food and other crappy selections six days out of the week. If I can handle eating healthy for six days, then I will reward myself on Sunday with the return of No-Rules Sunday (as opposed to my No-Rules Every Day that I currently practice).
I have a couple of other things I would like to add to this list, but I feel I'm being fairly ambitious as it is, so I will save those for a later month. The goal here is to establish habits, so, once these items are habits, then I will build upon them, hopefully resulting in an improved Sarah. I know, I know, how does one improve on perfection? Well, the answer is, with difficulty, my friends! Ha, just kidding, you know better than to believe that I think of myself as perfect. Don't want to be perfect, it's gotta be dreadfully dull, but I would like to feel like I'm a little more put-together as a human being than I currently feel.
So, there you have it. What do you think my odds are?

I've made the same type of list...
1. no more craft supplies (i KNOW!!)
2. Run or walk for 30 minutes EVERYDAY
3. No more junk food, but i think i'm going to adopt your No Rules Sunday... that's good stuff.
Good luck!
Wow, I should adopt your rules. Hrm. I ate a sugar cookie the size of my head today. And am trying to remind myself that I do NOT need to buy 3 cones of double-worsted peaches 'n' creme to make bath mats out of because I have plenty of other things on the needles right now and am tired of being overwhelmed by UFOs. Sigh.
