Saying Good Bye to 2011

I know it isn't quite the New Year yet. But I thought I might take the time to recap. 2011 for me was one of the Best years I have had since I don't remember when. Even though I still had ups and downs. I made some changes, had some fun, rekindled old friendships. And learned a little about myself.

I had started 2011 with a BANG at the Casino with friends. Had a fantastic night. And decided that I wasn't going to have a New Years Resolution to be specific. More like a goal. To become Happier and Healthier.
And that I did. I said good bye to a toxic relationship of 6 years. And I lost 25lbs.

I also got a lot happier. I went to more parties and get togethers than I did in years. As my friends would say I put my Granny slippers away and joined the real world.

I even went back to something I loved, raising pigs. I hadn't done it in years. I learned somethings had changed. But I did so enjoy doing it. And I think my Grandad really enjoyed it.

The year continued by me really getting out of my "Bubble"  and going to The Cavendish Country Fest. With the greatest friends you could ask for.

And we made new ones while we were there. Even if they complained about the chicken being cold and things were hideous ;)
2011 was the beginning of something great for me. And I'm certainly going to continue it in 2012. Again not so much a New years resolution more like goals.

My goals for 2012 are as follows:

• To finally kick my fast food addiction. 
• To get fit
• To get to a weight I'm comfortable with.
• To focus more on what I want & need. And less on always trying to  please other individuals.
•  To continue with 2011 goals of getting Happier and Healthier.        

Wishing you and all your family a Happy and safe New Years. And looking forward to starting a New Year.
