Happy New Year & My first post!



Well, I've had this blog for a while and meant to jump on the blogger bandwagon, but I kept thinking I didn't have anything relavent to say. I finally decided-screw that! If anything, I'll just use this as an online journal of my boring but lovely life. I don't really know what the "theme" of this blog will be, probably just a place to put my random ramblings with a little fitness and fashion thrown in for good measure. With that said...Happy New Year!


2009 was a great year for us. I FINALLY graduated college in May, we bought two new houses and moved into one of them, and went on a cruise to celebrate everything. It wasn't perfect though, and I am looking forward to 2010 in a big way, because I have some unfinished business to attend to! :)


New Year's Resolutions...do people still make these? I always feel so hopeful around this time of year and then feel like an a-hole when I fail to do the list of impossible things I set out to do. But since I don't learn, I am going to do a list of resolutions anyways! (It's tradition, if nothing else!) So, (drumroll please) my list of resolutions for 2010 are as follows:

  • Lose 10 pounds


  • Take better care of myself (manis, pedis, haircuts, etc.)


  • Try a new recipe at least 2x per month


  • Try a new activity-dance class, volleyball, rock climbing at least once a month


  • Get into grad school!


  • Get a better job


  • Stick to our budget


  • Train for a tough physical feat-like running a half marathon!

So, that's the list for now. Of course, I reserve the right to modify or delete any of this stuff at anytime!

My hubby and I went out to my favorite restaurant (Rigatony's) last night for NYE, and I wanted to share the outfit I wore,(which explains the random pic at the top of this post) since I LOVE these tights! We came home right afterwards and watched the movie "Push" which was pretty good, and then watched the ball drop. I stayed up until 4 am watching random tv for no reason. Today we just lazed around the house all day (a wonderful thing!) and I put away our inside Christmas decorations. In a bit we are going to pop some popcorn and watch Terminator Salvation...I am semi-excited because I've liked Christian Bale since I was like 11 years old! (Anyone remember Newsies?!) Anyways, that's all for now! Have a great night!
