I saw this in January at a shop in the next county and had to snap a photo. Here is a list of the ways that I am attempting to be the best version of myself this year.
- began exercising again on a regular basis
- started juicing at least one meal a day
- focusing my diet on loads of healthy grub - lots of stir fry-ups of veggie veggie veggies! Oh, and a newfound obsession with salads.
- making sure to send a card a month (and sometimes more!) to Amy and writing to Autumn every other week
- reading a book a week (audiobooks make this easier but I'm also reading physical books as well)
- once again trying to be better with finances - it's hard because I love to treat the kids to books and lunches, to buy cards and stamps to keep in touch with friends afar, go to the movies with pals and pick up the tab, plus splurge on Naked Lunch Jammed Yams for me every weekend, and buying things for child Lisa, because I want her to have all the stuff she wanted but never got.
- getting my savings to 5k and looking to get in shape for a fun adventure abroad with Isabella in 2026 for my 50th
- trying meditation at least once a day, even if it's only for a couple minutes
- working on puzzles, because it's relaxing and almost meditative, and I can listen to an audiobook - win win!
- making doctor appointments and trying to stay on top of my health as I grow old
It doesn't seem like much, but I'm trying. Even when I fall off the wagon and splurge on junk food or buying myself stuff just-because, I am getting in the habit of hoping back on that wagon and continuing on the road to better living.
