It's A New Year

Goodbye 2012 and Welcome 2013!

I feel that I am a very quite person when it comes to my personal life. I don't like people knowing what is going on and I really like to keep things private. But today I am going to share a teeny bit of my personal life because I want this to be the best year yet.

Here's the dirt.
 Ryan and I have been married for three years now! It is so crazy how time flies and I have truly loved every moment of being married to Ryan. For almost a year and a half I have been off the pill and haven't been able to get pregnant. This is something I have really struggle with and something I have kept to myself. I don't want to talk about it and I don't want anyone to feel sorry for me. I just want to move on. So that's it, a tiny bit of what is going on in my life currently. The reason I bring it up is because I am sick of waiting, I am sick of feeling sorry for myself and I don't want to dwell on this anymore. So I am going to change that this year.

 I normally feel that New Year's resolutions are overrated and a waste of time. I mean who really accomplishes their New Year's goals anyway?? But because I am too focused on what I can't control I want to start focusing on what I can control in my life. So that is what this year is going to be about for me. Focusing on the things I can control and becoming a better person. Here are my goals.

1. I want to get fit and work out so that I can feel good about my physical self.
2. I want to eat healthier, no more sweets or fast food... and possibly the Dew. Possibly.
3. I want to make dinner every night and fulfill my wifely duties.
4. I want to save $$$
5. I want to focus and look for opportunities to serve and help others. 
6. I want to keep a clean home.
7. I want to read the entire Book of Mormon.
8. I want to strengthen my testimony.
9. I want to love my husband even when he irritates me or makes me mad. I want to work on showing him daily that I love him.
10. And I want to open up and share my feelings, I want to be able to talk about what is going on in my life, especially to Ryan because I often keep things quite from him too. I want to love my whole self and look forward to what the future has in store for me.

I feel good about this new year and I can't wait to see what it has in store for me. Here is to fulfilling my New Year's Resolutions!!
