New Year's Resolutions - Linky Party

Happy Almost New Year!!!!

It's hard to believe a whole 'nother year has gone by.  I hit the big 'ol 4-0 this year and no kidding, life is whizzing right by faster than ever.  I keep trying to slow it down - telling my boys they have to stay this age because it's the best.  Then they go right on and get another year older, another year cuter, another year smarter...and I find myself feeling okay with moving beyond last year into a new year with new life, spirit and possibilities. 

I'm linking up with A Teacher's Treasure so I can think about what I need to do to be a better me, or make this world a wee bit sweeter...


I'm not much of a resolution person.  Probably because I'm really good at hunkering down and reaching my goals...maintaining is my big problemo with a capital P. 

So without further ado...

Personal:
*Get back to running/yoga
*Eat healthier
*Think of others and do small special things for them to show I care {A friend of mine calls these "sparkles" I love that}
*Strengthen my relationship with God
*Find balance and maintain all of the above

Professional:
*Implement alternative seating
*Get better at taking conferring notes
*Feel good about what I'm doing professionally instead of feeling like I need to do more or be better
*Take Daily 5 up a notch {I've got a good start - need to delve deeper into Cafe}

There you have it...

  1. Holly, I love the "sparkles" idea!!! I turned 30 this year and I feel the same way!!!

    I stink at taking notes! I can't ever keep up and stay consistent.

    Thanks for linking up :)

  3. I am about to dive deeper into the Daily 5 and CAFE too. I am excited, but nervous about it at the same time.
