Happy New Year!

And the new year has just begun!
How wonderful is this? A new year to focus on the things that matter the most to you and make those dreams/goals/aspirations finally come true.
And making my dreams come true is my motto for this year... I want to make sure that those goals that I can achieve for this year do become reality because I deserve to have things go my way for once. :-)

Other than that, it was a very special New Years Eve spent with a lot of family and friends. A lot of good food, drinks, dancing and chatting with everyone that surrounded me happened. I couldn't have asked for a better way to end the night. I'm already thinking about my plans for this upcoming New Years Eve 2013. HMMMM... the wheels are in motion in my head and hopefully what I have in mind to do can be done.

Then New Years Day was a lazy day in my house... waking up late, taking a nap and not getting up until late again. It was something that I so needed to do and was long overdue for me.

And today I had the liberty to be at work... how much fun is that?! LOL! But I made it... not happy about it but I have to be positive about everything in my life, no matter how much I might despise it. 
One of the many "goals" for this year... my 36 to 36 is in effect. A list of 36 items that I would like to accomplish on/before my 36th birthday or even by New Years Eve of 2013.



Of course there are certain things that I can list out and there are others that I would like to keep private, just for my own personal goal... but here are the ones that I have decided to make public and in no particular order, just as they came to me:


  1. Run more 5k's
  2. Drop weight - for good!
  3. Attend more plays/theater/concerts
  4. Try out at least 10 new restaurants
  5. Make going to the gym a priority
  6. Read more
  7. Learn more
  8. Potty train Mayalis before her birthday!!!!
  9. Change - and I will leave this one a broad stroke as there is a lot to be changed
  10. Travel more
  11. Plan things a little better for myself
  12. **** this one is a personal one. ;-)
  13. Work on being more positive about things in my life
  14. Either submit my blog as my book or start a whole new book to submit for publishing (must be decided on before the end of this month!)
  15. Continue taking Mayalis to her swimming lessons
  16. Teach Mayalis how to write her name
  17. Finally understand that things might not always be rosy but they need to be done
  18. Write my blog more often and find meaningful and mindful topics
  19. Expand my knowledge at work
  20. Cut down on pop and concentrate on drinking more water
  21. Eat healthier
  22. Increase my vocabulary
  23. Save more/Spend less
  24. Pay off my debits - all of them!
  25. Grow my hair out
  26. Get better at fixing my own nails
  27. Floss my teeth more! LOL!
  28. Take more pictures with a camera more... than with my phone!
  29. **** another personal one
  30. **** one more personal one
  31. Find myself - very broad for me
  32. Accept myself
  33. **** change it up
  34. Make life fun!
  35. Accept those that are different than me... and know that they are just as special as I am
  36. Keep a smile on my face!
And there it is... my list of 36. 
I don't know what to say about it except WOW! This list really made me envision all of the things that are rolling around in my head. 
Thankfully I was able to put together this list early enough in the year so that I can concentrate on the items that I need to do in order to make my life as joyous as I want it to be. And my goals have become clearer to me so much more now.

So with that, I bid you adu and hope that you have a wonderful evening!
Hasta la proxima!
