During my school years, I used to tell my dad that my days were going by way too slowly, mostly because I hated school and didn't want to be sitting in a classroom all day. He told me, "Wait until you get older. Time will fly by. I don't even know where the last 20 years went." Whelp, here I am, flying through time.
I have been going over a few things to try out for my New Year's Resolution. On the top of the list is a gluten-free diet. Yes, that would mean I would be a gluten-free vegan. Luckily, I already have the Gluten-Free Vegan cookbook!
Another thing on the list is to read a book a week like I did last year. I have really cut back on my book reading. I think I've read like 5-7 books this year, quite a few less than my 52 the previous year.
Maybe I should choose something really difficult. Obviously my diet and reading have already been conquered, but what about exercise. As much as I love to trail run in the summer and fall, what do I do in the winter? Ski! How about I make a resolution to ski 100 time this year? I have already been out once, what's another 99 more? How about running on the treadmill every day of the week? I'd love to be one of those people that runs 5 miles every day! The thing that is difficult for me is that I work in the evening and there is no way I'm getting up at 5:30am to run, as much as I wish I had the energy at that hour of the morning. 5:30pm is a better time for me.
Do you make New Year's Resolutions? Have you thought about what you'll do for 2012?
