Ring, Ring...Hello it's 2010!

So the year 2009 was completely nothing at all what I thought it would be. Getting laid off and living in Greece for 4 months being the majority of the unexpected! ha! But I wouldn't change a thing and know that God's got plans for me on His time, not mine. I'm patiently waiting and 100% fine with where I am in life. (on most days,ha!) So thinking ahead to 2010 I have no freakin' clue what to expect or imagine. But I do have some things I'd like to get done. And to be honest I try to set daily and monthly goals so a new year is even more reason to put my hopes out there. Not gonna lie, like most everyone, I suffer from too many lofty goals but we'll see...I got nothing but time right now,so why not put them out in the universe and see where I can run with them! Maybe letting all you know will help me feel more embarrased if I don't accomplish them! ha! And if you're interested in joining me in any of these goals-let me know! 2 is always better than one...i mean look how successful Noah's ark was! :)

Goals:

1. the obvious one for all-Lose 10lbs- Greek food & then returning to American food was the death of me...not gonna lie the biggest I've ever been (believe me the scales tell me that part)
2. Get a J-O-B!!! preferably in my current PR/marketing field but by some point in the year i'll take whatever i can get
3. Travel to a new city/country-some might think I've traveled enough but I'll never say that b/c it's my favorite thing to spend money on! Some have shoes, I have airplane tickets! And since I've gotta go back for Haley's wedding fingers crossed I can travel somehwere then while I'm across the pond.
4. Work to improve my relationship with God-always a daily struggle to put Him #1 in my life without getting distracted.
5. (double duty one):Watch less TV- which equals more reading, volunteering, keeping in touch with friends!
6. Cook at home more- I really do enjoying cooking it's just a matter of sitting down and actually choosing what to cook, going to the store, etc...Who wants to come over for dinner?
7. Increase my networking- yes, I know a lot of people but I wanna know more!!! More organizations to join, new faces, more awkward first conversations, i gotta do it...it'll make me a better person, I know! and could help out #4 and #2...hell maybe even #3, #5 and #6!

Alright so I've bored you all enough! Now i'm off to indeed.com my new favorite job searching site! And to see why the snow stopped coming down...dang it! I just love to sit and watch it!
