Be Kind 2013

It seems like the older I get, the less and less I make true resolutions. The same ole ones apply: be healthy, work out more, eat less....I have started some new projects though. . . off pintrest of course. I made a mini scrap book to write in everyday One thing I'm grateful for. ..then I have a jar I put in things that make me smile/laugh. at the end of the year, you go back and read through them all... seems fun.

Instead of "Resolutions" I have to do list....

I'd always like to save money - travel outside the US this year...do more and more yoga...and the big one for this year BE KIND> Be KIND to everyone. I already succeeded one day!!! High Five! ooh and I'd like to put on my own yoga workshop....maybe a little SUP Yoga and arm balances....juicing...crafts.. so many ideas! Here's to turning 31 this year too...EEEEK!

I'm glad I'm blogging these so I can remember.. :)

oooh and I want to shoot for teaching 325-350 hours of yoga this year....tring to beat out my 302 from 2012! here we go!

Mark something off my bucket list I didn't in 2012.. like sky diving.. damn it! I'm going sky diving this year!!!!

OH and I'm taking my monthly sabbatical this month!! No booze for the month of January...maybe I'll go longer this year.. we'll see.. stay tuned.. what are some of your items on the "to do list"?

cheers!

Love a new one

One of my favorite parts of a new year is switching out the calendars!!!! Love it...organizing, flipping back through the last year, all of it. Ahhhh done foe another year. Happy 2013 y'all

The day before

2 years ago today I had no idea the love of my life would walk into my favorite beach bar ~ the palm room. 2 years ago I can't tell you what I was doing....I can't remember, imagine that. You know they say pictures are for those who can't remember...thank God for cameras! And 2 years ago I would have told ya I met my buddies friend from Mooresville...cute, tattoos, and a beard....hmmmmm. Who would have thought 2 years later....and here we are...driving 100s of miles to be with each other for New Year's Eve! I guess you could say its the night he knew..waking up face to face clinching each others hand...and that's all it took...that afternoon I got the text. The text "you're the one". Bah ha ha ha and you're fucking crazy was somewhat my response...yeah right. To this day he has never been wrong ;)
I'm so excited to see him tomorrow. He lights up my soul. He truly is my soulmate...we found each other in a dirty ole dive bar at the beach...my love.

So in honor of our 2 years of meeting I thought I'd shave, shower, and wash my hair...so that's exactly what I'm doing the night before....lol yep I'm shaving my legs!

Cheers

Stop the Madness!!!! the year of the dragon....the year of 30...the year of I traveled my ass off and that's why I'm broke lol.
