Happiness Project - December
September was energy and I am still living by what I set my goals to be....I am doing yoga and continue to swim at the YMCA 2-3 times a week for 30 minutes each time. It is so wonderful....another entry.
October was my relationship with Bob (because it was our anniversary month). I did really well I think, but fell back to the easy and lazy ways by the end of the month. It takes a lot of energy to be in a relationship.....no wonder so many marriages fail. I guess remembering that underneath it all, if you had it to do over again, you would pick the same person, keeps you on the right path.
November was family month (turkey day and they are tied for most important as Bob)....didn't do too well with the goal of not nagging as much (that is a tough one), but did good with the being present goal. Had a day devoted to each child. Brendan and Connor still have cashed in on theirs. They decided they wanted me to get a tattoo with them. They were so excited to do it and combine their days in order for me to do it with them that I agreed to a small one, but so far, they haven't pushed it...we'll see.
December is me month, but that is so darn hard. I want to blog at least every other day or once a day...we'll see how that goes. I want to read books; I figure Xmas vacation will be my time to do that.....and some other things. It seems so selfish to devoting a month to me, but when I think about it, I am still doing all the Christmas giving and things that require me to be thinking of other people.
I have to say that I absolutely love having a focus for one month and I have managed to try to keep the trends going that I start. I have to say that I have never felt so able and successful at my personal goals before.
Bring it on December!!!
