exercise
Goal: be able to wear Ty Lee's costume without shame! 2 years ago

Because of the instability in my life (along with other factors…) I haven’t been eating as well as I have in the past. The sudden change in diet has added at least 5lbs, maybe as many as 15lbs. I still LOOK okay, but let’s be honest. I want to look great! ^^

I want to wake up earlier every morning so I can run/jog/walk/stagger down to the river and back, and do 5 push ups and 10 sit ups. I’ll increase my work out as I get stronger.



develop tidier habits
Shielf yourself! 2 years ago

This won’t be pretty, but keep in mind that despite my gross habits, I’m really not a gross person!

Things that this includes:

☆ take a shower every day instead of every “when-I-remember”day
☆ do dishes BEFORE they start to pile up and grow
☆ keep my floor visible
☆ do laundry AT LEAST twice a month instead of avoiding it and wearing clothes that don’t fit so I can put it off one more day
☆ throw things out that I don’t need instead of collecting them (because I know deep down I’ll never use them)
☆ take out the garbage AT LEAST once a week instead of waiting until it starts to smell
☆ use my closets
☆ throw away those weird little things that accumulate like wads of hair from my hairbrush and the pills of wool from my sweaters
☆ use the bedroom for sleeping and working, not eating, so dishes and boxes of crackers won’t accumulate in odd places



buy a new wallet (read all 2 entries…)
It's got a kitty on it! ♥ 2 years ago

I kept loosing things like change and business cards while I was on a trip to San Diego over the summer, and on the last day of a convention I found an adorable wallet that was just right for me. I’ve been really good about keeping things in it instead of just tossing them in my pockets or my bag, and I think it’s helped me stay organized! It also makes me FEEL more organized, even if I’m not… ^^;
