Recap of my 2013

Holy Hanna!! 2013 was a crazy year for me. As you can see I haven't hardly blogged at all. I've decided that this year, regardless if anyone reads these, I am going to have a place to put my thoughts.

So let's first recap my 2013, for those interested.
After my grandfathers death during the holidays in 2012, the first part of 2013 was a little ruff. Not that I was emotional or a wreck but my father had a hard hard time with it all. As time passed things seemed to get better with him emotionally. I love my dad and have at times had to be a rock for the family to keep it together. I don't mind it.

So in April and October we went to our condo in San Diego. Just Duane and I both times, and we needed those breaks. We have so much fun together and decided on the April trip to not plan anything. We woke up each day and decided what we wanted to do. If we wanted to go out, we went out. If we wanted to be lazy and watch movies all day, we did. It was a couple of amazing trips.

In July, I got really fed up with this baby making business I've been doing for several years. I decided to no longer put my need for getting a higher education on hold. So I with in a week signed up with Stevens Henager College/Independance University to obtain my bachalors in business with a emphasis in HR. I just finished my second term last night, happy to say that I made the presidents list first qtr and well on my way to make it again second qtr. I'd be lying if I said it was easy, especially with a more then full time job on top of it. I have to say that I've managed to balance very well. The only thing that I've really sacraficed is working out, which I plan to incorperate back in.

Those are the major things that happened this year. So let me tell you what I've done so far this year:

*Added smoothies and making my own juices to my diet
*Increased Veggie consumption
*Decreases breads, crackers, etc. to almost nothing
-To date I've lost 5 lbs

Goals:
*Get outside more
*Live in the moment more (stop living on my phone)
*Continue to hit the Presidents/Deans list each qtr

That's pretty much it! My focus this year is to make memories, stop stressing about making the baby and enjoy the process (No charting, temping, testing), and get my body healthy while expanding my mind!
