Wow, it's been awhile since I've been here! No real reason why, just life I guess. I won't bore you all (for anyone still checking in) with a recap of everything that's happened the past 8 months, but I'll reserve the right to look back on occasion if I get back to this blogging more frequently.
I think one of the reasons I'm here now is the whole New Year's thing and making resolutions and all that jazz. I've never really been one to make resolutions and then do everything I can to see them through. I usually just think to myself "let's try to do this, this and maybe this during the year" and then just go from there. If they come to fruition then great, if not, no big deal. It's not that I have anything against resolutions of this sort, but I guess I don't like failure and it seems so many new year's resolutions end up not working out. So, with that being said, I'm setting some resolutions for 2010! How's that for double-speak?! For now, I'm going to keep them semi-private, but since you're just dying to know what they are I can at least tell you something about some of them:
1. Try to get back to blogging more regularly. I actually miss this "writing", if I can use that term loosely for what I'm doing here (I won't tell you how often my resolution calls for)
2. Yup, lose some weight and health-related goals (I won't tell you how much my resolution calls for)
3. Something in the romance field (I won't tell you to what degree my resolution calls for)
Are you sensing a pattern here with what I'll tell you and what I won't? ;)
4. Maybe some race time/results goals, but we'll have to see how training goes before I get too semi-serious to be setting time goals.
5. A financial goal (I won't tell you what or how much my resolution calls for)
6. A parental goal (there isn't any one specific thing in mind, just some general thoughts on how I can be a better father for my children).
7. A family goal for myself with my siblings and parents (this could involve a personal change so this one might be tougher to accomplish on my end)
And so it goes. These aren't in any particular order and there may be another resolution or two that pops up over the next day or so so this isn't necessarily a finite list. Just typing these out has me thinking about all of them already so maybe that's the whole purpose of making resolutions - just getting them in your stream of consciousness (thanks, Childress, for that terminology). Hmmm, time to ponder and get a little more specific (offline) about some of these. Hopefully I'll be able to sit here 366 days from now and check off the ones I was able to accomplish. Adios 2009, Hola 2010!
