Ideas for the upcoming new year

I’m sitting here in my pjs at 1:30 in the afternoon on a Friday with a cold nose and trying to figure out the rest of my day. It’s the first day on my vacation that I’ve truly had to myself and I’m trying to just veg and enjoy. Well… I’m not very good at that.

So instead I’m starting to think about the new year and what that will bring. I’m excited that it will be 2013 because 13 is my favorite number. Silly, I know. But it’s cool to experience that, ya know? Sometimes it’s the little things…

For the longest time, I’ve wanted to start a blog called “What’s Bruin doin?” It will be from his perspective, almost like what we see in “Text from Dog.” Tim and I already narrate his life, so I think it will be easy to get it rolling. I’ve been posting pictures of him on pinterest (on the pug board,of course) and they get repinned constantly. I bet I can make him famous!

In addition, I’ve got the stereotypical resolution of eating better, going back to the gym, bladitty blah blah. Three years ago was when I delved into WW the first time and took off the ugly weight I used to carry. I haven’t gained it all back – probably about 10-15 lbs, but I want them gone. I have jeans that don’t fit anymore that I want to fit! So I’m going to check out WW’s new 360 plan and delve back into that.

I’m excited that I have an on ground class at Goodwin in the spring, and I’ll only be at HCC one night a week instead of two. My GC class is on Saturdays which means that I get the best students. 🙂 My goal for the HCC course is to revamp all my teaching materials because I know the course can be more than I’ve given in the past.

Lastly (at least for now) – I’d really like to get back into make jewelry. I have all the materials and should use them! Ash suggested I run an etsy business which has been at the back of my mind for almost 5 years now. So perhaps in my “free time” (hardee har har) that can be something I consider pursuing.

In all honesty, I think this semester will be calmer than the fall and easier to deal with. Instead of 4 jobs, I’ll be down to 3, and that “free time” can hopefully be dedicated more to me. We shall see.

So, I’m ready for 2013. A fresh start.

Who’s ready for snow?

Cheers,

T
