New Year's Resolutions

for 2008

• Simplify my life with less stress and less anxiety. I get so caught up in the things that I do that I get very stressed out and then I get anxiety attacks. They are nothing major, but I do want to enjoy what I am doing instead of worrying so much if everything that I do will work out okay.
• Bible Devotion more. God is so good and I want to REALLY read his word not just read it and punch my time clock and say, "Okay, read my devotion for the day." I'm not saying read every day, but diligently focus on the scriptures and pay close attention to what God is trying to tell me.
• Work on exercising with a strict regimen because I actually like working out and I believe I eat better and feel better when I do. I know this is typical of new year's resolutions. I don't want to diet, just stay healthy. And I don't want to obsess and work out every day or something crazy like that. I just want to be active.
• And lastly, I really want to start writing a book. I have entertained the thought for a long time now. I have several plot lines in my head that I want to get on paper. Nothing exciting, you know. Just little stories that I would like to jot down and see where it takes me.

And I know what you are going to say, that resolutions shouldn't be made because they are always broken. But wouldn't you like to say you tried? Happy new year and may 2008 be better than ever! And yes, make some resolutions!

P.S. Brad just walked by and wants me to say that I will love him more. So, yea, that too!
