2012

I realized something today.   Up until today I thought this year was going to be my year, a year all about me. About my success, my career, my life, my dreams, etc.  But you know what? 2012 is not about me.  2012 is about God.  2012 is about my God, AND my relationship with my savior.

Clean start

Well we've made it three days into this great new year.  Today someone asked me why I blog.  I mean, its a good question.  Why would anyone put their thoughts and life stories on the internet and then request that people read it?  Who knows... But I do like having the outlet to put down a few thoughts from time to time.  Somethings I put in here I talk to people about all the time, and other things are more personal.  It's good to get thoughts out.  Anybody out there remember live journal? or Xanga? I had a live journal back in the days before Facebook.  Blogging was the social network then.  Everyone had one!  I even started mine out of peer pressure.  After the Facebook phenomena I left the blog world for a while.  I started blogging again when I started eating clean back in 2010.  I started that blog as a food journal to keep me honest.  SO returning to my food journaling days...

I started Cooler 1 (from Tosca Reno's Eat Clean Diet Recharged yesterday. So since I'm laying in my bed about to go to sleep I guess I've made it through 2 days.  2 down, 12 to go.  No refined sugar, no processed foods, lean proteins, lots of veggies, and low complex carbs.  I will have to cheat a little though! haha Bama plays LSU on Monday for the national championship title.  Number 14. Well that's all for now.  Peace.

Happy New Year

I don't really believe in New Years Resolutions.  In my opinion, every day is a new opportunity to make life changes.  That being said, it doesn't mean I don't take the opportunity to think about new goals for a new year.

Goals for 2012:

  • Make more random acts of kindness.  
  • Think positive.  Start and end the day with one positive affirmation.  
  • Run a race with a friend.
  • Get a job teaching high school band somewhere in this great country. 
  • Floss at least 365 times.  
Well that's it for now.  I'm sure I'll come up with more goals this year.  2012 is my year.  There are good things coming.  I just know it.
