HAPPY NEW YEAR LOVELIES!!
I hope 2013 has started GREAT!!
In trying to get back to my blogging- I wanted to start with a Resolution Recap from 2012!!
Then look into what I want for 2013!!
My 2012 Resolutions:
1. 12 in 12 in 2012
I had this done by summer! I so enjoyed all the many books I read! You can see my recaps of them here!
2. Get to 100-
I actually got to 125!!
I feel AWESOME!!
More on this later...
3. 5K, 10K, 13.1, 26.2-
I got half of this done.
My teammate and I weren't ready for our half and she was battling a foot injury- so we put the half on hold and I've given myself until I'm 30 for the full!! :-)
Training starts back (aka- my butt's hitting the gym again) next week!!
4. John 16:12-
I really feel I grew closer to the Lord this year! There is always room for more growth, but I have enjoyed my journey to get closer to Him! I will continue this one!!
5. ORGANIZATION IS KEY!!-
Eh- this was back and forth! I tried to be organized as much as I can, but also not be so anal about it all!
I was happy with the outcome!!
I found this fun questionnaire recap I thought I would do!!
1. What did you do in 2012 that you had never done before?
~All kinds of things and it was great!! I became a runner (though as of late, not as much). I lost a whole person! I began to like myself and believe in myself and I started to love life even more!!

My cousin also lost his battle to pancreatic cancer.

Nope! PTL I stayed very healthy!!
10. What was the best thing you bought?
The best or the most?? I bought a LOT of clothes LOL- but the best thing would maybe be my XBOX? I've had a LOT of fun playing on it!!

See above LOL! With losing lots of weight comes needing a LOT of new clothes! Oh DARN!!

Ingrained in my head!!
13. What do you wish you would have done more of?
