2008 - Here I am!

Well Hi!

It's a new year, and with that, like many people around the world, there are new things to be started. "Resolutions" if you will. I don't like to make resolutions. I am not making resolutions. I am making a complete lifestyle change.

First things first.. a bit about me.

I am 29. I'm gonna be 30 this year and I don't know that I am all that upset about it.
I am female. As such, I do have my female moments where I am known to cry, whine and shed tears. BUT! I have the sense of humour of a 15 year old boy, and I tend to make my husband shake his head at me daily with the things that I say and do.
I am not a mother. At least, not yet.
I have recently moved back and forth across the country. And I much prefer where I am now to where I was then.
I'm an avid reader. I devour books and I love them all. It doesn't matter if it's fiction or not, I just need to have something to read.
I have a very eclectic taste in music.
I am overweight - and no, this isn't a weight loss blog.
I am happy, which surprises me cause I really didn't expect to be at this point in my life.

Okay - back to the lifestyle change:

As stated above I am overweight. I don't want to go on a diet, and I don't want to go to the gym. I do want to eat better, ensuring that what I put into my body is healthy and wholesome and not completely processed, and I do want to become more active.

My husband and I have horrific spending habits. We have decided that 2008 is the year that we kick our old spending habits to the curb and learn new ones.

And finally, I want to start keeping a regular diary-type thing. While I don't like to force myself to write everyday, I do enjoy the creative outlet of writing, so I am going to set a minimum of 3 posts a week and hopefully work up from there!

Wow, I think that's enough for the first post. At some point I will put together a cast page so that anyone who stumbles by can figure out who everyone is, and maybe put up some more information about me, but for now, I think that this is a fairly good first post.

Ta-Ta Dahlings. (ya, as if I could pull off that voice!)
