Goal #1 accomplished!

Okay, when were rolled into a new year I did not post my 'resolutions'. Most of you know I always say they are only made to be broken. But every year I set goals in my head and hope to get every one of them done. I can honestly say when I tell people these goals I seem to squash them all on my own. Like when I told Stinkydog I wanted to run the Boston Marathon when I turned 40 or when I told Kate I would love to win the Race for the Cure. Each time I somehow sabotaged my own goal, either by slacking off or just ignoring it. If you ever look my race times up you know I could have easily accomplished either one. I told my work a couple of years ago I may go back to school and finish my masters or something. Have I done it? Noooooo. So anyway, you can count on the fact that if I say it out loud I will not do it. Dumb, I know.

So when I got back from Stinkydogs house over new years I told myself and no one else several things I should do this year. One was to be more green, I have never been much into recycling and have no idea why not. So I have turned in all my plastic bags you get at the grocery store and Target (yes I turned them in at the recycling bin) and purchased my reusable bags. I have successfully made this transition and am very happy about it. Key is to stick one of those suckers in your car at all times. That way last minute trips to the grocery store don't tempt you to use the plastic bags that seemed to multiply by the thousands in my pantry.
One down and several more to go!!! Anyone care to guess what the others are? I'm already well into my second one.
