2010: Make Every Day Count

My goal for this year is to do something exceptional each day. What do I mean by this? I could be something I have been putting off for a long time; or something that I do every day, only better than I ever have before. For example, my daily run does not count, but a PR for time or distance does. It has to be something that takes extra effort, and produces a significant benefit either for myself or others. Yesterday I had my hair done. I know it does not sound like much, but it really did take some effort. I was long overdue and have plans to go out with my husband for New Year's Eve, so I wanted to be "presentable" . I worked 7p-7:30a, had a 9:30 appointment, and did not get to bed until noon, only to be up at 5:30p to get ready for another night at work. Was I tired and irritable? You betcha, but it was definatley worth it. This morning after work I plan on getting my nails and eyebrows done. Everybody needs to start somewhere, lol.

Merry Christmas?

Well well. Here it is, December 24th, and still 2 more nights of work to go. I guess Christmas is as done as it's going to get. Wrapped M's presents up when I got home from work, still have some cards I have not sent out yet. They are already 7 years late, so a few more days I guess. I basically try to avoid the holidays, and I have become a champ at that at least. For now, finish my beer, and off to bed.
