list making at its finest (following up, not so much)

i love making lists. to do lists, what i want lists, things i need lists, things that make me happy/anxious/pissed lists, grocery lists... for some unknown reason my brain operates in list form. so here you go, the list of resolutions that i will try really hard to actually keep this year!

-lose enough weight to fit into my skinny-girl yellow dress for my sisters wedding in july. this is a combo resolution- lose weight, eat healthier, save money, and straight up vanity. im sick of carrying around the extra 20 lbs from having k...shes going to be 2 this year for craps sake. plus i have another 15 to lose after that, just because i want to look good. and i want my ass to be back up where it used to be!

-go outside with k every day- even if its chilly, rainy, snowy, sleety, windy... or any other form of shitty. she needs to experience the weather so she doesnt turn into one of those people who is scared of getting wet.

-downsize, downsize, downsize. last summer i filled up an entire 1 800 got junk truck full of crap i no longer used but kept anyway. i felt like i was in my own episode of hoarders. problem is, i still have a ton of crap. unused furniture! books i dont read! clothes i dont wear! basically stuff that if my house was on fire, i wouldnt feel the need to save. some of it is storage-worthy but thats only things like skis, camping stuff or the christmas ornaments.

-take a great vacation. last year we went to the bedford springs resort in pa. omg, it was heavenly... pools, a spa treatment, hiking, frozen drinks and gourmet breakfast room service.. it was a really fun family vacation and perfect in every way! i want to go back, so that means saving... which im horrible at- therefore, resolution!

wish me luck, this year is not going to be as easy as the last... but dammit, im going to fit into that yellow dress again.
