2017 New Years Resolutions
So here goes nothing…. drumroll please… here are my 2017 New Years Resolutions:
- Run the Naked Bavarian 40 mile race on March 4, 2017 – the day before my 36th birthday!
- Raise $5,000 for Covenant House Pennsylvania – Already 27% there but I only have 2 months left to raise the funds.
- Run the Dirty German 50 mile race on May 13, 2017 – Almost 1 year to the date of giving birth to Bowen.
- Lose the baby weight – I am over it. I want to feel and look like myself again. Current Weight – 140 lbs/Goal weight – 120 lbs. 20 lbs to go!
- Rock climb More – No set amount just get on the wall/outside more.
- Travel More – France and Niagara Falls are already on the list.
- Blog More – No set rules just simply more
- One small house project a month – complete with a blog post about it.
- Declutter – more donations and selling.
- Spend less – what’s the point of decluttering if I am just going to fill the house back up with more stuff?
Wish me luck!!
Tuesday morning at approximately 6:00 am I was out for a run and I fell. It happened so quickly but there was this split second moment when I thought “damn I’m falling and there is nothing I can do about it.” Luckily I was close to a patch of grass and aimed for that but I didn’t get there without first skidding across the sidewalk. It took me a moment to get up. It was quite shocking. I have to admit I was grateful the sun wasn’t up because it was embarrassing as well. Although arguably had the sun been up, I probably would not have fallen. The sidewalk had 4 inch lip and my foot just got caught. Either way I hobbled home, luckily I wasn’t too far, and jumped into the shower to wash off all of the scrapes which hurt like hell. I kept reminding myself that the pain was nothing compared to giving birth and to suck it up but it really did sting. So the biggest causality to the fall besides my left knee which should heal okay was my Fitbit. RIP Fitbit. You are missed every time I take a step.
