2009= the year of me

My New Years resolution is to spend this year on me. I have decided that this year I am going to try new adventures, find new hobbies and spend the year on myself. My best friend here is joining Weight Watchers and wants me to be her support, so I am going to join too. I am going to use this year to find a way to exercise that I actually ENJOY versus seeming like exercise. I am not a runner or treadmill fan. Asthma and big boobs=not liking to run! So...I am going to explore my options. When my Grandmother passed away last February she willed her AMAZING high tech sewing;embroidery machine to me.I just got it last week and I am looking forward to using it. I know how to sew but I am going to explore the world of embroidery. I have never been a reader, but I am going to make a point to read this year. Even if it's a page a book per night. I survived high school and college on cliff's notes and those that know me know I am ADD, but I want to enjoy reading.
I love to cook and if I can brag for a minute I am a damn good one! he he but this year I am going to branch out in my cooking styles and create dishes I would have never made before. I am even going to branch into some seafood which I have not been a fan of before.

Anyway, I guess this blog is getting long so I will run. Basically I am saying that somewhere along the way in trying to please everyone else I forgot about myself. NOT THIS YEAR!! I am going to live for me and do things I love.
