The New Year is a Comin'

I'm not one for resolutions but it does help to set a goal and what better time to start then the first of a new year.

I think this year physical fitness has to rank up there pretty high.  I am a healthy eater for the most part but the exercise thing...I make excuses on why I can't.  I have to get back in the groove I was in before, like two years ago, gym every day or at least four times a week.  So, that complimentary one month gym pass is going to serve to get my mojo going.

Mental fitness is going to take priority too.  I read.  I write.  I do quite a bit to fire up the brain.  The mental fitness I am speaking of...distancing myself from toxic people.  People who lead a lifestyle that I just do not share, I have to put distance.  People who are passive aggressive guilt-trippers.  Have to step back.  I need my emotional self to be 110%.  I have a busy job.  A busy family life.  There is no room for the garbage.  I say garbage because I have tried to "accept" these "traits" in others but I just can't anymore.  I have a wonderful family and an amazing group of friends.  They deserve my best and I can only give that to them if I'm not consumed with the bullshit.  So bullshit free (reduced, that's more realistic) in 2012!!!  And a slightly slimmer ass.  2012 is already looking good.

Love the one you're with!!

Christmas is coming...

...The goose is getting fat.
Please put a penny in the old man's hat.
If you haven't got a penny then a half pence will do
And if you haven't got a half pence then God bless you.

It is that time of year again.  For some it can be very difficult.  They are barely getting by.  Find it hard to get something small for the ones they love.  Feel guilty because of that.  Haven't got food to put on the table.  Miss someone they love.

This time of year, if you are blessed with abundance.  Share it.  Share your physical goods and your emotional ones.  It just takes a moment to show someone you care.

Love the one you're with.  XO
