first post of the year :)

Well, here we are well into the new year (well 11 days into it anyway) and even though I have had access to my computer, I haven't felt at all like blogging - I am thinking it was the extraordinary amount of posts I did for advent. My 2-3 month quota filled in just 25 days...

I really don't like new years resolutions - I hardly ever keep to them and so it seems worthless to even make them, knowing my past history. The funny thing is, at the start of every year I go through feelings of being given a blank slate to start over with. I have grandiose ideas that I could do anything - lose those extra pounds, exercise, eat better etc. I am sure that I can do those things if I put my mind to it, it's just that my mind rarely cooperates. Last year in our little fledgling cell-group we looked at the chazown DVD series which is in a nut shell about living intentionally, with focus and a vision. Based upon the idea that "without a vision (or Chazown) the people perish". So even though I don't like resolutions, heres one anyway - I want to live intentionally. I want to be healthy, and that means I need to take control of my diet and exercise. Eat smaller portions. No pigging out on take-out food. Drink more water.

So HAPPY NEW YEAR to you all out there in Blogger-land, I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and a fantastic New Year! It's never too late to start afresh.
