My New Year Starts in February

Right after Christmas people go crazy making rash promises to themselves that they fully intend to keep for three weeks. Out of laziness or some deep conviction (those are close) I'm making my rash promises now, after most of those guys have already given up.

Broad resolution #1: Eat better. Less processed food and more vegetables. In order to do this I signed us up for Abundant Harvest and Erik bought me a bread machine. Mmm...homemade bread, just sounds healthier right? Broad resolution #2: Erik surprised me with a family membership to the YMCA. He presented it with the opening statement: "Men are never supposed to give their wives gym memberships but..." So after I punched him in the face...not really, I'm thrilled, the kids are thrilled, my lonely forgotten, skinny jeans in the back of my closet are thrilled. Let us pray this resolution lasts longer than 3 weeks.

So if I put it on the internet maybe that will make me stick with it longer than 3 weeks right?

I got a gym membership for Christmas, too. Now if only my kids would stop getting me kicked out. These toddler behavior issues are killing me.
