Resolutions for January

So I've decided to add new healthy habits month by month so I can focus on just a few things at a time. This will be easier than trying to revamp my entire life and then crashing and giving up by the second week of January.

My resolutions for January are... (drum roll please)

1. To floss every day even if I don't feel like it! (If I thought anyone was actually reading this, I probably wouldn't divulge such a thing.)
2. To read the Bible every day.
3. To not eat sugar except on special occasions.
4. To keep my sink shiny (yes, this is a Flylady thing).

I'm always happier when I'm on a self-improvement plan, and I have hope that these new habits will become, well, habits.

I know we can all have a fresh start at any time, but there's just something about the New Year... It's a collective reminder of the passing of time and of the fresh opportunities that come with each new moment of each new year. I turn 30 this year, and I'm determined to make my third decade my happiest, healthiest and most mature and "together" yet -- despite the challenges and the suffering of the "slings and arrows of outrageous fortune." God willing.
