I guess I'll follow suit and write about the New Year today....
I am so glad to kick 2011 out the door. There were some wonderful highs, but mostly the year was a turbulent ride of lows. In the last few days of 2011, various memories of the year were flashing through my head, and to say good bye to 2011, I want to share a few with you.
My Dad, next to my Mom's hospital bed, holding her hand, just looking at her, watching, make sure she would get everything that she needed.
My Mom, standing up at my graduation when they asked all the parents of the graduates to stand! I love you, Mom!
Finally finishing college and earning my second degree!
Many, many memories of my wonderful trip to Ireland. My first flight, the gorgeous landscape in Doolin and the busy streets of Dublin. What a wonderful trip, and I look forward to doing more travel in Europe in the future!
Moving into Spartan Village (bad)
Moving out of SV and into our house (good!)
A friend of mine being diagnosed with cancer for the second time.
My maternal grandpa having some health issues.
My paternal grandpa being diagnosed with cancer for the third time.
Running in my first official 5K!
Adam passing out on me after crashing his bike.
Riding my first 100 mile ride (century)!
Courtney got married!
Making my 10% weight loss (again)!
Being unemployed
Finding a temp job that I love!
And adopting the mostest adorablest dog, evar!
-----
Now that that's done, things I hope to happen in 2012!
I am within range that if I stick to it, I will be at my goal weight sometime in 2012. Probably not by my birthday, but close. I am so excited. Even though many people think 135 lbs is too low for me, it is smack dab in the middle of my healthy range for my height. I plan to try to get to 135 lbs, and if I can't maintain that, then I will be more than happy to gain a bit to stick around in the 140s. Unfortunately, I will probably be able to gain that easier than Adam is able to put on the weight he needs to put on...
And job stuff. That I can't talk about yet.
No hospital visits needed for anyone! (Except birthin' babies, that's ok. And no, I'm NOT pregnant)
Some monetary goals that Adam and I have.
Also, Lions should win the Superbowl!
Just have fun.
2012, let's have some healthy, good, old-fashioned fun!
