Lifestyle Changes

I don't usually make resolutions because I generally don't keep them, but this year I plan on making some "lifestyle changes" that I hope I can follow. If I don't label them as resolutions, that takes the pressure off, right? Here they are in no particular order - I'm sharing them in hopes that if they're out in the world I am held more accountable:
  1. Exercise more (exercise at all in fact)
  2. Remove myself from negative people. Why hang out with "friends" that somehow make you feel bad about your life? And why read blogs written by people who see more hardship than good in their difficult life? Downers be gone!
  3. Spend more time playing with the kids, and less time worrying about them
  4. Go on more dates with my husband (babysitting offers anyone?)
  5. Don't let the Canucks stress me out. It's just a game, Tracey, it's just a game.
  6. Accept my life circumstances - the good and the bad. In the words of the Serenity Prayer: God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and wisdom to know the difference.
Any good resolutions lifestyle changes for you?

  2. I set a goal to walk/run 50 miles in January. Oh, and I'm not going to let the Oilers stress me out (which should be pretty easy since I am sure they won't be making the playoffs for the 6th straight year and the playoffs I find are the most stressful). :-)

  3. All admirable and achievable goals except for the Canucks' induced stress level...good luck with that one, they are the Canucks after all!
