Before I begin

New Years Eve --  I can't believe it is almost 2016! 

I have my Pork and Kraut cooking in the crock pot.  I am working 16 hours tonight.  Yuck!  I picked up my daily planner and I am planning my new year.  There are so many things I want to do this year.

I guess my starting point for first thing tomorrow will be checking my stats and placing them in my book.   My beginning weight, my credit score, etc.  That way I will have a handy reference throughout my journey.  I would love to start tonight, but working 16 hours will definitely put a damper on that.

One of my big goals for this year was to get a dayshift job so that I could be with my family more.  Well, I secured dayshift, after 15 years of working 2nd and 3rd shift... but I have to train my replacement.  So the detail of when my days will start is out of my control.  I am hoping it will be soon because a lot of my plans involve me being home to work on them!  I guess I will have to work that detail out as I go.  Onward and upward!!!!

Pre - better me

What is a better time to make a resolution than the start of a new year? 

But why should I focus on 1 thing when there are so many in my life that could use an improvement?  I can think of many!  Weight, career, financial, organization and even just being a better person in general.  I decided that this year I am just going to focus on me!

If I can focus on 1 objective a day... no matter what it is... that is a step in the right direction.  How can I get bored if I can switch my path at a whim?  I will work on it one day at a time.  I can do this!

Since this is the pre-me...  I figured my goal is to purchase a good day planner.  That way I can track my progress and write myself notes that I can read later in the year and I can keep myself focused. 

Anyone want to join me in my journey?  Maybe we can even learn something together!
