I wish I had the discipline to really keep up with this.
I never have properly wrapped up 2007, and it this point, I probably won't. It was a pretty good year. I got to direct a band again, and really feel in charge. I was given more and more responsibility at work. Things with Jennifer continue to improve, and I really like most of my coworkers. Still not much for having a lot of friends, the few relationships I do have continued to strengthen. I moved. I played euchre for the first time. I lost ten pounds. I developed a taste for vodka. Got so drunk the night before the fall concert, I blacked out. I got a library card, and I have read some pretty cool books. I got a light therapy light. My 29th birthday. I'm sure there is more, but that's a little bit.
Now for 2008-
These are pretty much the same goals I've had for a while.
1. Get under 200 pounds. I'd like to do this by Pride. 6 months and 24 pounds should be doable.
2. Read More. I'm doing pretty good on this one. I've read a couple of books so far.
3. Meditate. I really want to get this one accomplished. I really think it will help me.
I want my like to move forward this year. I feel a bit mired in the day to day, and not examining the bigger picture. I would like to dip back into school. I just have to decide what kind of degree I really want to get. I might try to come up with some cash, and just take a couple of classes this fall.
I would also like to do something to comemerate my weightloss, and my 30th birthday. I am thinking about a tattoo. Well, actually 2- one for each arm. They wouldn't be the same, but complementary.
One big goal will be a dog. I think I've decided now to wait until Feburary after I get back from KMEA. I still need to cut back on some expenses.
I need to get a handle on my finances. I want to shuffle some stuff around, and try to not use the credit cards.
So there is a start. I should try to be more introspective as well. Right now, I'm thinking of finding a book to take to bed, and hit the hay early. I need to get up early tomorrow because we have a choral department meeting. I'm worried. I have to present the new calendar policy, and that might not go over well.
