2013 New Year Resolutions For Me and MTS

I can’t believe it is another year and another resolution list. I have been putting off writing this list and I’m not sure why. Maybe because I have looked over my list from the last two years and my resolutions seem to be the same in some aspects.

Many of you may or may not know that this is the year I plan to get pregnant. In order for that plan to actually happen, I have to stick to some of the resolutions that I made last year. In a way, they are not resolutions, but life changes. For me my so-called resolutions come at the beginning of the year as does my birthday. So another year older with a fresh year to start.

My birthday is in a few days and I can feel the anxiety creeping up of being another year older and the fact that I need to get this baby train moving.

So I have included my personal resolutions and the resolutions for my blog.

I am happy to look back at my resolutions from last year and see what I stuck to and what I didn’t.

I have made sure that every night I wash makeup off my face. I have also worn SPF every time I go out of the house. Even on my hands. I have also been taking my vitamins. Proud that I have stuck to many that are important for my health.

My Personal Resolutions:

Continue to take my prenatal vitamins every day. The resolution for this is to not have any skipped days. It is still easy to forget. Which reminds me, I need to go buy a new bottle. My best friend and I swear by Trader Joe’s brand. No constipation included. Hopefully that is not too much TMI for ya.

Continue to wear my eye cream every day AND night. I have a new fave and next week I will be writing about what I am using that was recommended from my dermatologist.

Continue on my weight loss (new science-backed research) journey. This is never ending as it seems, but if I want to have a healthy pregnancy, I need to drop about another 20 – 25 pounds. I am a visual person and I really like the idea of putting in a new pebble once I lose a pound. It is like a little reward and I like to see the pounds to lose pebble go to the other jar.

Get pregnant. Is this a resolution? Maybe, maybe not, but I am determined that this is my year.

My Thirty Spot Blog Resolutions

Blog re-design. I have been wanting to do this for some time now. I am coming up on two years of this blog and I am ready for a new look. Now, if I can just decide what I want it to look like, that will be half the battle.

Move to WordPress. I know I need to do this. Can’t really give and explanation as to why I haven’t Maybe because I am that person that hates change. I don’t mind blogger, but I want to own my blog and it needs to be done.

Write about motherhood and stuff. This will be done with my own pregnancy. I know that I have not talked about it a lot, but that is because this is not a mommy blog. However, being in my 30s, it is something that most of us want to do or are doing. All my girlfriends are pregnant right now, and I mean ALL OF THEM, unless they just had one within the last three months. So having babies in 30s is what is going on, so I will need to talk about it more. Just not too much.

Write more Thirty Inspiration posts. The posts where I talk about women and what they achieved in life in their 30s. I have done a few of these so far, Oprah, Elizabeth Taylor and Julia Child to name a few. I like writing these, and I think they are very inspiring, they just take a lot of time and research. My resolution is to do many more of these for 2013.
