Starting the New Year off right...Hopefully. :)

I've decided on my New Years Resolution.

1. Exercise. I have too much fluff around the edges. Yes, I have had 3 kids close together, but that's no excuse now. :) We have a family membership at the Y and everybody really seems to be enjoying going there. I hope we can keep the membership because it seems to be a really good fit for us in that it gives the kids a chance to play with other children, while giving me the chance to get some physical exercise for myself and "free" time too. I've enjoyed taking one class at a time to see what class I want to get into and how often. So far I have tried pilates, yoga, cardio dance, and basic step. I still want to try the cycling, bosu/strength, Body Sculpt, and Buns & Abs classes. I thought I wanted to try the stability class, but it turns out that there is nobody under the age of like 70, and its mostly men. Not that I mind them, but I think there are other classes that fit my needs.

I've also tried doing 60 minutes of aerobic exercise in the fitness center. I went with Tom last night and worked for the entire hour on the machines he usually uses in the morning - and boy are my legs hurting now. :) I'm pretty excited about everything though.

2. Get Organized. I've created a schedule based partially on the MOTH (Managers of Their Homes - get it at Titus2.com) handbook and partially on the FlyLady (www.flylady.net) thing. Combining the two should help me get my act together so I can learn how to keep my house looking great - right? Once I get my schedule figured out I'll try to post it. I'm pretty excited about it because I've got it in my google calendar and with chrome, I can have a link to my calendar to know what I'm supposed to be doing right now instead of playing on the computer. :) Wish me luck in my endeavors! :)
