New Years Resoloutions, Halfway Point

On New Year's Day, I wrote down my resoloutions for the year 2005. Now the first half of the year are gone and I decided to check in and see how I've done as far as my resoloutions go.

1. Take Better Care of Myself. I've lost weight, have no energy and am not allowed to return to work indefinately, so obviously I'm not doing a great job. I am trying to eat regularly and try to keep myself healthy, but this one needs definite work.

2. Get In Shape. I've done nothing towards this one. Mainly becasue I'm lazy. Also, I have this hatred of exercise, but I have to get over it. I know that.

3. Go Back to School. I did apply, but then life piled up on me and I realized that I had to put this one off until January. I will go back to school, just not as soon as I might have liked. Life keeps getting in my way.

4. Get Out There More. For a while I was doing okay with this one. I mean, for a while I was going out every weekend, but I seem to have fallen back into bad habits. I'll blame it on the fact that I live in Castleton and that I'm not sure that I want to spend too much time with the people around here. I've been pickign up bad habits.

5. Learn to Play the Guitar. Ugh, I'm really failing miserably here. I've held a guitar a few times, but that's it. I will look into lessons one of these days. Really.

6. Find Peace. Well, I'm on crazy leave from work and seeing a shrink, so obviously this one needs work. It's just really hard to acheive, to stop listneing to the negative forces around you and to the little negative voice inside your head.

Ok, so after some reflection--I'm not doing so great with the New Year's resoloutions. Oops. So, we'll have to put some work into it and see what can be done. Obviously, I have to start focusing on my goals, even if I have always sucked at that.
