but only kinda sorta.
I usually love New Year’s resolution time. But not this year. Pregnancy is hard on me and I think it makes me feel detached from myself. Too weird to go into and who really wants to hear me psychoanalyze myself?
Jan showed me this TED talk at the start of January. It made me weep and I knew that if I could work up some kind of drive to actually make a few resolutions that they would have something to do with what I learned from this talk:
So I don’t have my “go-fight-win” special January feeling right now, but I’ll tell you what I would like to see happen in 2011:
1. Sleep. I want to sleep. I want to sleep more than four hours a night.
2. Be happier (I think number 1 will have a big impact on number 2.)
3. Live life more “wholeheartedly” and with more gratitude.
4. Give birth to a healthy baby
5. Too close to my heart to publicize, but Heavenly Father knows what number 5 is.
Good luck to me, and you and anyone who wants to be a better person in the new year!

thanks for this video lize (and jan!). Loved it. And good luck with the resolutions . .. I’ve got a few of my own- just small and simple really. Otherwise they never get done. I gave up long ago on being a grandiose resolver. 🙂
