resolute.

I really don't want to make resolutions, for fear of not achieving them. I tried my hardest to instead start creating better habits that I can stick with as the New Year approaches, but I came across this adorable New Years Resolution Kit by Lindsay of Run Lucas Run that I couldn't pass up.  As I read through the list I thought about how I daily/weekly/monthly set goals for myself with little to-do lists, orders, a schedule etc. and when I look back- no matter how many things I cross off that list (or totally fail at getting done) I can't help but give myself a high five. Even if it looks funny doing it, but really high fives are way cooler then back pats right?

Anyways what I'm getting at is that each day we make goals and we work towards them.  Now whether that goal is to watch lifetime movies all day long in your jams, work on a million orders from your little shop, write up a post, do great at work, spend time with your kids, go on a date with your love or have quality friend/family time- whatever it is, all those little things add up to living a great life and thats one resolution I always want to make to myself.  A good life.

This weekend we are heading up to Portland to look at houses (eeeeeppp!!) and with all the goals we set in making this a reality I can't help but wonder what 2013 will bring. And I welcome it with big ol' open arms as I run through a field of flowers in slow motion (just picture it). I'm still working on my answers for the list above by Run Lucus Run, but make sure to go download one of her kits and get yours started too! I've heard of a bunch of you starting your new year with the One Little Word Challenge and I might jump on that too. I'd love to know, if you are one to make resolutions.. what are yours?
