Short and Long term goals

This is my second entry prompted by the Folk Magazine Journaling Agenda, You can find it here.

I got such a great response to last weeks post, thanks for all that read and commented.

This weeks is about my short and long term goals for 2013.  Something I really need to think about.  I tend to think short term and leave the long term to itself , so to have to think about both is a tiny challenge for me.

Short Term Goals

Right now I am doing the Live Fit training program by Jamie Eason.  It is a 12 week program and the first four weeks is no cardio, all strength training.  I want to make it through the whole 12 weeks and hopefully by then I will be toning up :).  I have gotten through week one with my gym being closed and lost a half inch here and there so I just need to keep pushing through.

Buying some recycling containers.  One of my resolutions was to recycle more so I need to get some containers to help me keep everything straight. I have a bag in the cupboard right now holding the things I remember to put in there for recycling.

Get into a healthy eating pattern!  Christmas left me so blah an overwhelmed, I put on five pounds and ate way too much sugar.  I defenently need to get back on the good eating wagon again.

Continue to be a supportive wife and mother to my gorgeous family and keep doing all I can to help the home front !

Onto those hard to grasp long term goals.

In my letter to myself I noted how I had worked on my anxiety and depression last year.  I defenently need to keep working on that this year.  I need to learn to  let go of things I can't control (and even some of thing things I can) and just breathe. 

 I want to run some more 5k races and heck maybe even a 10k or two, I don't think I will ever be a marathon runner or probably even a half marathon runner, honestly I am pretty sure I would just get bored.  But a 10k is attainable and probably a good aim for me to have.

This is a hard one but I have really been thinking about it these past few days.  I need to do a friend cleanse, I know this sounds harsh.  But I seem to be the type of person that attracts friends that don't care to put any work into our relationships.  I don't know if this is just a thing that happens these days because people are so darn busy these days or if it is something in me that attracts it.  But I am at the end of putting all the work and time in of keeping friendships up and having no effort put in by others!

I want to find ways to care for the environment around me more, I am not sure how I want to do this but I want this beautiful world we live in to stay beautiful for my child and his children and their children etc.

Ok its out there on the world wide web ;)  Now I have to do all of the above right!!  Feel free to check in on me each week to make sure I am keeping up with these goals, actually I would love that!
