New Year’s Resolutions: 2013

Posted In: New Years
New Year’s is right around the corner, can you believe it?!
While having lunch with some ladies today, we started talking about our resolutions for 2013 and i haven’t been able to take the question off my mind. What are my resolutions? I’ve never really made any resolutions before, but a lot has changed this year and it feels like a great time to start fresh. 
fitness (the cliché resolution) – i want to get stronger, i want to be in shape. i’ve never been one to spend time exercising but because I’ve been unemployed since July, staying at home hasn’t done my body any justice. The ladies and i have been talking about staying fit together and I hope we keep pushing each other to achieve it.
cooking – i want us to cook healthier, fresher food. These last three months we’ve certainly been adjusting to a total new lifestyle and I know we haven’t been eating as healthy as i would want us to eat. I want to finally take trips to the local farmers market, where we can buy fresh fruits & veggies. 
adventure – i want us to be more adventurous. We just moved to Japan and while we did go on adventures during our first month here, lately we’ve spent our weekends laying around at home. I want that to change.  
photography – i want to take advantage of my new camera. Thinking about taking a class with the ladies when husband and i come back from vacation. Then when we go on adventures i can capture the beauty of this island better than ever. 
decorating – i want our apartment to feel more like a home. Hoping to go shopping for décor while we’re on vacation, so that our walls no longer feel empty. Also hoping that after the wedding we can buy a nice sectional couch and a nice entertainment system, then we can finally give back the ugly government furniture. 
saving – i want us to learn how to save money. During our time here we want to take advantage of all this side of the world has to offer, which means travel!!! (would you like to see our travel wishlist?!)
blogging – i want my blog to grow. This blog has become more about our PCS than anything else but i want to incorporate other things, like fashion, DIY ideas, recipes, travel logs, among other things. Also thinking of giving it a change of look, very soon. 
these are the few things i have on my list and i’m extremely excited to see what 2013 has in store for us. 
Care to share your resolutions?!
