Checking In

Well, once again I've fallen a bit quiet on the blogging front, but I thought I'd at least check in and mark some of my progress.

One of my resolutions this year was to conquer my debt and become financially stable and save more! A huge resolution to take on. So far so good! I've paid off one credit card, and well on my way to paying off a second one this month! Yay! In terms of saving....well its progressing, but not at the rate I'd like to. This year I came this really neat savings plan to help me at least save up for a vacation. I just started a new job, so I'm hoping that by the end of this year I'll have enough time accrued for a vacation and the money to finance it!

As for my resolution to be fit and get back on track....well its moving along slowly. Last year in October I ran the Nike Women's marathon and ended up with two black big toe nails, which left me side lined for roughly four months. Now I'm back. I purchased a new pair of running shoes and have embarked on week 1 of C25K. You ask what is C25K?! Only an amazing free podcast you can download to help you get back on track. I was supposed to get early today, but I let my excuses get the best of me. However, I did go out and purchase a  bright, shiny new high impact Moving Comfort sports bra! Now, tomorrow I will get up and go get the third day in.

I'm reading again. Not as furiously as I once was, but I am into my 8th book of 30 books goal for this year. I promise I will post my resolutions soon. Also, I'm almost done redesigning my blog and injecting more of me into design. I've also gotten better at resisting my impulses to buy random things that won't be in use for long. I must admit though I have bought a few things, some unnecessary others practical, but its getting better.

Okay, I promise to be back soon and post more on my resolutions, life, and goals.
