Below are the New Year's Resolutions I made for 2017. Let's get a progress update, shall we?
1) Lose another 50 pounds - As of Sunday, February 26, I have entered a 3-month-long weight-loss challenge. I needed to do it, because I've been seriously slacking on the weight-loss front. This past weekend, Mom and I took a little trip to St. Augustine (maybe if you ask nicely, I'll write a blog post about it). I definitely gorged myself in order to have a high starting weight for the start of the competition (and to have several "last meals" to think back on fondly during the next three months). Since my initial weigh-in for the competition, I've already gone down SIX POUNDS! Also, I just started doing Jillian Michael's workout video called "Ripped in 30." Guess we'll see how ripped I am in thirty days!
2) Pay off all of our immediate debt - We used part of our tax refund to pay off yet another bill, but then another $1,000 worth of unpaid debt surfaced. So since then, I've taken a little break from thinking too much about our debt, because it hurts my head and my heart.
3) Rewrite Ravensboro - I'm ashamed to say between work (tax season is here and I work in a tax office), working out, and otherwise being married and being choir director at my church, I haven't had much time to do much else. Including updating Ravensboro.
4) Finish Harkness - I really can't start on this until Ravensboro is done... ='(
5) Journal/Blog more - I've written more than a few book summaries on my blog, AND I started a journal again last week. Now to just discipline to write in it faithfully.
6) Find out where I should be career-wise - I just got a raise, so I'm sticking where I'm stuck right now. Hopefully, God will continue to lead me in His will for my career, because I still don't know what to do. I love writing, and I would love to work in a church, but I'm not finding any lucrative opportunities to do this =/
What about you? Did you have any New Year's Resolutions going into 2017? How are those working out?
