New Year's Resolutions...

Yup, you read that right. New Year's Resolutions is the title you see. Here's the deal, in the past you've heard me say I don't really like making them. I don't! It always seems like a bandwagon kind of thing. If you want it do it. I say this knowing full well that I'm a slacker as well and terribly forgetful. See where I'm going with this?

When my home away from home opened back in December they had these great little new year resolution cards. I looked at them and was all set to walk by it when I realized what was on it, a $5 coupon. Earthfare, you totally know the way to my heart. So I fill one out and I completely forget about it... that is until it arrived in the mail this past week.

There it is. My goal is essentially activity once a week. Lately, I've been feeling like I'm failing myself. I like group workouts and I like yoga, but it takes quite a bit for me to get to my mat or get to my step. So I've missed a few classes, and haven't been in what feels like forever. However, when I saw my card from earthfare I happened to have my planner in front of me and thought let's check in. Let's see how I've really done. For the month of June I planned and completed some activity only 8 different times. :) Except, that puts me at roughly 2 times a week!!

I feel like this is the kind of thing I need to do more often. Really checking in with facts and seeing where I am. What about you? Do you find that reality is sometimes a little different than what you might have imagined?
