At the beginning of each New Year, I pick a few things I want to accomplish or work on throughout the year. Below are my New Year's resolutions for 2012:

  1. Send more thank you notes.
  2. Make an effort to plan a dinner with my friends once a week.
  3. Organize my closet once a month.


What are your resolutions for 2012?


XO Lauren

      1. Be better at pickin up the phone.


      2. Buy less clothes (I usually use almost all my money on clothes every month, and therefore I don't really have money for anything else.)


      3. Eat healthier.


      4. Get in shape.



      Hope your resolutions come true Lauren! :-)

      2011 was pretty hard on me, to say the least (new job, moving, first year of marriage with physical separation due to job...etc etc).


      Here are my resolutions for this year:


      1. Spend as much time as possible with spouse (he's moving up with me next month :D)


      2. Rent a new place where it's peaceful and quiet ( hope this horse farm is still available when my lease is up)


      3. Read more books (I didn't actually read many books for fun at all in 2011)


      4. Try a new hobby (I'm going to try muy thai tomorrow actually, I've always wanted to try martial arts)


      5. Travel (I love it so much, and never got to do as much as I would like in 2011)


      6. Eat at least 2 servings of veggies daily (I normally eat quite healthy but lack in the veggie area)


      So cheers to 2012 :D

      I love these resolutions. I've become a big fan of Thank you notes. I think they're great to receive and always make my day, so why shouldn't i send more! I also want to send more cards in general. A gf of mine just started college in her late 20's and I know her first week isgoing to be crazy. Sending her a pick me up card will make her day!



      And brunch with the girls at home is my new project. I love entertaining at home!

      ** # 8) Spend more money on clothes, THAN on food... I buy lots of good food, eat at nice restaurants, but waaaay too much! I need to spend more money on clothes, instead of eating out as much!

      My New Year's Resolutions:



      1) Take One day at a time


      2) Don't let last year's heartache ruin what this year has to offer


      3) Take more vacation/stay-cations


      4) Have Mimosas every Saturday morning.


      5) Stay with reading the Bible & keep striving to do what God wants & have a deeper relationship w/Him.


      6) Of course- Get back on track & lose weight again... Get over the pain of gaining it back b/c of a guy... (Ya'll know what Im talking about ha ha)


      7) Get & maintain the classic "Staples" of my wardrobe. Pretty much everyone says it's the same things (LBD, white button down shirt,Nice blazer...etc) but I've never had them all at once.


      8) Spend more money on clothes & food.


      9) Be more balanced as far as putting myself ahead of others. I'm notorious about putting others first; but sometimes its to my own detriment. I love to give, but half the time I'd never spend as much on myself, as I spend on other people.


      10) Get organized in my apartment, as in cleaning & decorating.



      Blessings this year, everyone

      2012 Resolutions:


      1. Create more art. (I bought a drawing table but haven't done much since my son was born 10 months ago)


      2. Judge people less. (There are so many imperfect people in this world, and I am one of them)


      3. Write "just because" notes to people for no reason other than to encourage.


      4. Run the Shamrock Half Marathon in March with my sister.
