Happy New Year!

2010....what will this year have in store? 2009 was a great year. I have a lot to be thankful for. I love the start of a new year... so many things to look forward to. Resolutions? Yeah, I admit- I make them. So... here they are in no particular order.
1- I'm going to lose those 15 pounds. I really am. I've been eating salads for breakfast for 5 days now. I can feel a difference in my energy level. My stomach isn't so happy about it, but I think that will get better. I don't have a time frame but by December 31st I will be 140 pounds. An interesting note- I keep a food journal (loosely) and on 12/31/08 my weight was 1 pound higher than it is now. That's something to be positive about.
2- I'm going to spend more time reading my Bible and praying. I've been inconsistent in this area of my life and I'm going to make time daily for it.
3- I'm going to find a ministry area that's outside my family. I'd really like this to include the whole family. I think #2 will help lead me in this area.
4- I'm going to break the 2 hour mark for my half marathon. I'm just going to.

I started my New Year with an 8 mile run this morning. It was great. I used my Garmin I got for Christmas and love it!
