Totally achievable goal...BETTER DAYS!

So, here is my 2016 New Years post. I hope to look back at this page in 366 days and be amazed at myself. Yes, 366 days! It's leap year. We get an extra day this year to make up for the last four years we messed up on. Who knows? That one extra day could be the turning point or make a complete difference in your life! My goal is to make EVERY day this year a BETTER DAY. 

RESOLUTIONS

1) Work on my independence...be comfortable spending time alone. Show love, not loneliness.

2) Dance more...for fun, for exercise, while doing housework, while grocery shopping. Dance for the pure joy of feeling the music and being happy in the moment.

3) Show and Tell my children I love them. Hug and kiss my kids more...the older they get, the harder it is to connect with them in that way.

4) Listen more, talk less.

5) Take my children on a memorable family vacation...

6) Travel with friends/family and share experiences instead of buying gifts for birthdays and holidays

7) Live within a set budget and pay cash for everything (Dave Ramsey)

8) Make taking care of my body a priority...exercise to feel better, not to look better. That will happen along the way without stressing over it. 

9) Work on the person I want to be, Forgive the person I was, and Love the person I AM. 

10) Be the reason someone else smiles EVERY DAY. Create happiness daily, for myself and others.

Here's hoping all of your days in 2016 continue to be BETTER DAYS...

Better Days

1. By Goo Goo Dolls

   And you asked me what I want this year
   And I try to make this kind and clear
   Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days
   'Cause I don't need boxes wrapped in strings
   And designer love and empty things
   Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days

   [Chorus]
   So take these words and sing out loud
   'Cause everyone is forgiven now
   'Cause tonight's the night the world begins again

   I need some place simple where we could live
   And something only you can give
   And that's faith and trust and peace while we're alive
   And the one poor child who saved this world
   And there's ten million more who probably could
   If we all just stopped and said a prayer for them

   [Chorus]

   I wish everyone was loved tonight
   And somehow stop this endless fight
   Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days

   [Chorus]

   'Cause tonight's the night the world begins again
