so far i'm not hungover. and although we did start celebrating the new year yesterday afternoon (possibly around noon), as the evening progressed, i really started "slow-stepping" it on the alcohol. by midnight i'm pretty sure i was completely sober, but i was still having a good time. most of yesterday was spent playing dr.mario on the wii. i must say, it was the best $10 i ever spent and accounted for hours, yes HOURS of fun. to the point where we turned the damn game into a drinking game, which may have to turn into a new tradition for party nights.
my house is full of sleeping friends. because we're all responsible adults and i would never EVER let someone leave my home thats been drinking. i'm just glad i was able to provide comfy cozy spots for everyone. maybe that extra mattress is worth hanging on to, haha.
so 2010 is over. honestly, i can't sit here and pin-point things that happened every month during that year. but i'm glad to say its over. for the most part 2010 was a year of struggle, not only for me, but a lot of my friends as well. i was glad to say goodbye and say hello to a new and promising year.
i'm not really one for making "resolutions" but i would like to try harder at some things, such as:
- making healthier choices in general. such as eating better and exercising (i did buy a gym membership!)
- not to mention: healthier choices in the way i live on this earth and healthier choices for my mental and spiritual state.
- spend less time online and stop being so technology obsessed.
- as a society i think a lot of us have really lost touch with whats important because we're all to busy playing on our phones, laptops, social networking sites, etc.
- since i went into the new year already having quit facebook, i feel good about this. i spend less time on the computer now, i use it for what i need and get off right away. although i will update my blog.
- travel.
- i say this every year, i make plans, BIG plans, tell them to everyone and then everything falls through. but not this year dammit! i will go somewhere haha!
- continue the constant strive to stay positive.
- the power of positive thinking is no joke, i truly believe this. however, being and staying positive is really hard for me. sometimes i have no idea why i am such a downer 99% of the time.
- stay in touch with friends.
- now that i am facebookless, i have to remember not to alienate my friends and family. i must stay in touch!
- adventure with the boys as much as possible.
- remember that each new day with them is a blessing and full of endless opportunities. spend more time together as a family enjoying and learning from eachother. make time to try and see new things. cook together, eat together, play together, laugh and cry together, just be together. happy and healthy.
- continue being a crafty bitch!
- 'nuff said!
- make the effort
- im going to be vague on this.
- realize that its okay to put a little focus on yourself sometimes and not feel guilty about it.
- this one is going to be hard for me, but i know i have to do it. i go without a lot of things all the time because i feel guilty about spending any time/money on myself. but this year, i need to get over this and realize that sometimes its okay to buy that $5 bottle of OPI nailpolish or spend the money to have my haircut more than once a year.
and thats it from me!
i hope everyone has an amazing year!
