The idea of “New Year’s Resolutions” kinda pisses me off. Mostly because I just get aggravated when people say a bunch of bullshit that I assume they’ll never follow through on. I’ve been slowly understanding, though, that I jump to conclusions a lot and become bitter over things without any real logic. (Like my absolute distaste for Harry Potter. I’ve never read the books, but I can’t stand the series. See? No logic.)

Anyway. This year I’ve decided to make some changes, whether or not related to the New Year.

1. Not get mad so often over silly things (see above).
2. Call my friends. (M has promised to push me so that I do it.)
3. Work out.
4. Another attempt at veg*nism. (Prompted by the BG… Eeeeee!)
5. Join a CSA, make and preserve food!

The BG and I joined the YMCA yesterday which is *brand new*. It’s listed as such on their website, but I forgot about it until we walked in the door. Needless to say, it’s gorgeous and everyone there is really nice. The yoga and other studio classes (which include pilates, kickboxing and African dancing!) are included in the $37/month price. I’m very excited. It’s less than a mile and a half from where we live which is a great biking distance. We attended yoga together both yesterday and today, and today we worked out in the gym using our bikes to get there and back.

Eeee!

And, I’m (we’re) taking another shot at not eating eggs or cheese… we’ll see how it works out. In addition, we’ve chosen a CSA to join. They drop off the loot weekly at the Whole Foods store for us to pick up, which is super convenient. And the BG has purchased some equipment for us to begin canning food.

Woo! :D

Oh, and just to add to all this excitement? Last night we took a stab at making homemade ravioli which turned out REALLY WELL. Pics coming soon. :D
