2010 I await you...

I am making my resolutions list public this year.  Hopefully this will help me accomplish more by putting them out there for everyone in cyberspace to see.  Along with stringent non-fun things I will add in some spontaneous and creative goals for myself.

So here goes nothing....

1. Save more money
    -after cleaning, and cleaning, and cleaning up stuff today I see how bad an addiction to shopping that I truly have.  I have known  this for a while, but with two family weddings in 2010, both out of state, I'd like to be able to afford more than just food and hotel rooms.

2. Save more money (that isn't for vacations), and (gulp) set a realistic budget.
    -One that allows me to still indulge in my daily starbucks fix but limits my visits to Anthro and Sephora.
 
3. Do at least one craft project a month and post it online.
    -To satisfy my creativity and need for self expression through a paper medium.

4.  Recommit to losing weight
     -In 2009 I lost almost 30lbs, and in 2010 I want to lose another 30.

5. Use my annual passes!
     - I have annual passes to Disneyland and the San Diego Zoo and I will set up plans to use them in 2010!

6. Take dance classes and meet new people!
     -My friend L and I are going to make good on this promise in 2010!  Latin American Dance here we come!

7. Post on my blog regularly.
     -enough said. ;)

8.  Plan regular vacations and time off from work to recharge.
     -Possible destinations, LA for a long weekend, Vegas for, well, just for Vegas and all that it brings, Hawaii, because I've never been.

9.  Explore my hometown!
     -Try a new restaurant, explore a different part of the city, or just take my camera out and shoot the unexpected.

10.  Take my car in for regular car washes and treat it right.
     -I know how stupid this one sounds, but really the last car I drove, I ran it into the ground.  Rarely washed, rarely cleaned.  For the biggest purchase in my life so far I should take care of it beyond scheduled routine maintenance.

This list is unfinished...but hopefully I will accomplish most if not all of them.  Its a fresh year for new adventures...nothing ventured nothing gained.
