Resolutely

I like New Year's resolutions, but it can be hard to keep track of them and really follow up on them. I thought I would put mine on the blog, so I can report on them once in a while. I hope it will help me increase my accountability for them. I have decided to focus on three resolutions for the first five months of the year:

1. I want to read 10 books by the end of May. I have gotten off to a good start. Already I have finished The Tipping Point and Outliers both by Malcolm Gladwell. (They are books that Santa brought me.) I loved them both. I need to read at least 8 more, but the real hope is to get into a more consistent reading cycle since it is something I love to do.
2. I want to lose 40 pounds. It will be interesting to see how on I do on that one.
3. Lastly, I want to get in a better scripture reading habit. We always read as a family. I usually read, but never at a consistent time. It is time for me to find a time that works and stick with it.

Well, those are my goals for the first part of the year. We will see how I do.

(If you are wondering why I chose the first five months of the year, you might need to read both of these posts.)
