SK told me to post

So my lovely best friend has informed me that I need to write a blog, so write a blog I shall. Well I have achieved one of my new years resolutions. I donated 212 things! Yay,  it was and will be more then that actually but I stopped counting after 212. It did help that we're trying to move by the end of February.

So what else is new? dating? awkward? dating people from online scary!! haha. I feel like I'm to untrusting of new guys I talk to. Like this one guy in particular you have a job in marketing? really what does that really mean? People are weird, like asking me to your house to eat fish the first day we talk...odd. It's kinda scary how freaky people are these days. Life is easier in a small town, because you pretty much know all the guys you date so you don't deal with the awkward first date/meeting thing. But then I guess you don't really meet people out of your comfort zone and you grow miserable and bitter. So since I live in the big city maybe then one day I will date him:


or maybe them:


As you can tell, I'm dreaming big! Sky's the limit. I will say one thing about this life experience I'm going through. It is nice to meet so many men who don't care about my size and still want to get to know me, date me, and some do other nasty gross things with me I don't want think about ever again! HA, yep, I've had to block a lot of folks. :) Well I hope that puts a horrible gross image into your mind. I must sleep now because it's super late and I silly decided once again to prepare for my Sunday School lesson, in the morning!

Happy New Years mo fo

So it's the time of year where we all pretend everything is starting brand new. Of course being a sucker I'm buying in. I have 7 New Years resolutions this year, 7 brave I know. Last year mine was to read 2 books a month and I did so. I even kept track, which helped me stay on route, so I plan on keeping track this year too! Cos y'all know us special ed. teachers love our data data data!!

So without further ado, I present to you my 2012 goals:
1. Read the whole Bible (I've done this before, but not as an adult)
2. Lose 50 pounds (yes, I need to lose more, but this seems reasonable)
3. Organize my scrapbook supplies (Everything is a big ol' mess! The main motivation behind this is using my scrap-booking organizing tools and containers, & if I'm organized I'll use it more, right?)
4. Make 5 scrapbooks (I think I made zero this year!)
5. File/Organize/Shred my papers & bills (Also, another big ol' mess. I think I need to develop a system that works for me)
6. Read 30 books (Last year my goal was to read 24, I read way more, so this year I want to read 30 and ONLY 30, once I reach my max, I'm done for the year!)
7. Donate 212 things (this is doable, because I have so much, but really need so little)


So I'm counting on my friends & family to help keep me accountable on these goals. Feel free to call me out and often. I'll be keeping update and tracking periodically...
