90 to go...and so...

Two goals down from my 20 in 120!  

1. Finished reading New Moon .

2. Finished reading the Ensign from cover to cover in one month.

Boy that feels good.

I must say, setting these small little goals have really been helpful in my quest to accomplish some major goals. I can't wait to get the rest of them done!

After my much hesitation at attempting the Twilight series...I am glad I got it read. Twilight, I liked, although I didn't see what the hype was over it. New Moon, I like a LOT...b/c I had just seen the movie and it was a LOT like the book and so I could picture everything in my mind when I was reading it. The end was reeeeeealllly long though, so, that book took me a while. I just may attempt Eclipse.

I've been reading the Ensign every morning for a few minutes, and just feel like it has been a great start to my day. I'm glad I chose that goal. 'Cause now I want to read it every month.

20 in 120




There are 120 days until the first weekend of summer.
But who's counting? :)
I do love my job, but I also do love my summers. I've been doing some thinking about my 2010 resolves, and by the time summer comes, the year will be half over. To break down some of my major goals, I have decided to complete 20 small goals in 120 days. Here are my 20...

Swim 4 laps without stopping.
Lose 20 lbs by day 120.
Do aerobics for 20 days.
Count calories for 2 full weeks.
