Happy New Year!

I totally love the New Year! Not because I party, most years I'm not sure I even make it until midnight, but because it's just a great excuse for a fresh start and a chance to set some goals. Sure, I might not achieve them all...but it's worth going for, right? :) So here they are, my 2011 New Years Resolutions:

1. Increase My Benefits Hours by Second Quarter (For those of you who don't know...I am quite a bit short on my benefits hours at work, and therefore I have to pay part time premiums for my benefits. Which totally sucks!)


2. Exercise 3 times per week - Ugh! Hate this one! But it is a must.


3. Restart Weight Watchers - Isn't dieting part of everyone's new year?


4. Be more organized - I am a disorganized disaster! I have the desire to be organized, but it's just so much work. But I can't stand the clutter of my house, my car, my life. It has to be done.


5. Stay on budget - Again, a budget sucks, but we need to get back on track with our finances.


6. Have more patience. Patience! Patience! Patience! Let's face it, having a toddler is hard and I really need to work on being more tolerant of Leah and her toddlerness :)


7. Give up Starbucks - Oh how this one makes me sad. So many reason's to quit: too expensive, fattening, too much caffine, blah, blah blah. This is gonna be a hard one.


Wish me luck. Happy New Year!

Have you tried making your own blended coffees using the powder stuff in a canister from Costco? I love me some Starbucks, but this stuff is pretty good too. Love it with a little caramel drizzle added in when I blend it. Yummy and a fraction of the cost.

Good luck! My goals are just about the same as yours this year. Minus the benefits one.
