Hookay, so these are NOT New Years resolutions...because we all know those never happen. I'm actually starting this in October so I'll have time to think about it. This is a list of twelve things that I hope to accomplish in the year 2013, in no particular order (also, trying to do it as if I don't have a job yet, because that changes a lot of things).
1. Lose 50 pounds. Ambitious, maybe. But that's like one pound a week. I can hack that, right? I do play on going to see a nutritionist and make a plan.
UPDATE: Nutritionist seen. On a meal plan. Down 11 lbs.
2. Get my photography blog up and going. I got it back under control, but still don't have all the kinks worked out.
UPDATE: Website/Blog is all clear and up, check it out! www.alexisburton.com
3. Be more active. That kinda goes with #1, but I want to be more active in general, not just for exercise. But since we live in CO, I want to try to take advantage of the hiking, maybe start biking, and definitely do a lot more walking.
UPDATE: Looking into learning to ski. Bought the pants.
4. Complete the Couch-to-5k program. This goes with #1 and #3.
5. Have a family portrait taken. All four of us, ha! This will definitely be towards the end of the year, AFTER I lose the 50 (or more) lbs. haha
6. Build something (like a coffee table/storage bench).
7. Refinish some of the furniture we got from Craig's List.
UPDATE: One down, five to go.
8. Branch out in clothing styles. I did buy a pair of skinny jeans...but....I'm still not 100% convinced that that was a good decision...
UPDATE: Liking the skinny jeans, got a pair of very pink shorts.
9. Do not take for granted the area in which I live. Every time we move somewhere, where there are cool things/places nearby, we always say, "We live here, we can see it any time." Hopefully that'll stop in 2013.
UPDATE: See #3.
10. Be more open to activities that I previously would have said "No" to.
UPDATE: See #3 and #9.
11. Limit Facebook and Pinterest time.
FAIL
12. Make better decisions and stick with them.
Well, there it is. Something to tackle in the '13. Hopefully I can get work on these throughout the year to make 2013 better than 2012.
