Happy New Year

I am a sucker for New Year's Resolutions.  I make them every year.  Some I keep.  Some I don't. But at least I have goals...Last year, I wanted to lose 20 lbs. (I lost 10).  I also wanted to do 52 endowment sessions: the equivalent of once a week.  I did about 32.  I also wanted to reduce my debt or get rid of it altogether.  Well, that one I didn't do so well on.  

So what's up for this year?

I want to lose that other 10 lbs.  I did really well last year from January to July.  Once August hit with going back to work, etc. I hit a plateau.  I am back at it now and I am hopeful to get back to my Weight Watchers Goal Weight.  I am a lifetime member.

I also want to try to do 52 endowment sessions.  I think that is a good goal.  This year our "kid night" is Wednesdays.  Last year it was Tuesdays.  I am going to try to go to the temple every Tuesday night.  I tried going on Thursdays last year, but by Thursday night I am usually too tired to do much of anything.  Maybe this  plan will work.

Debt...well....right now I am not sure how I am going to do that.  I read an article in Reader's Digest about going on a spending fast. RD Spending Fast article

It sounds interesting...I am going to think about what things I need to spend on and what my "Latte Factor" is.  I am sure there is money that I spend that I could redirect...

I should really change clothes and head over to the temple.  Might as well get a head start on that.
