Petite Resolutions

Happy New Year!

How did you ring in 2012? After spending the day at the spa with Mama Petite Adventures, I was at home with family drinking wine and watching hockey - and celebrating my best friend's engagement via satellite (she's in Kingston and I wasn't given enough notice to fly back).

Once the hockey had ended we got to talking about New Year's resolutions. I try to keep my attainable (to avoid epic failure) and practical.

So, without further ado, here are my Petite resolutions for 2012.
Some of them are repeats from 2011, but they're good ideas so why limit them to just one year?!

1) Read More
 goal: read at least one book each month
Read before bed instead of TV

2) Volunteer
IABC
Dress for Success
3) Write more

4) Spend less
use the library
make lunches

5) save 10% of each pay cheque
*continuing from 2011

6) Pay off Visa Card
this was accomplished over the Xmas holidays, but I feel it might need to happen again... and again... and again

7) Pay off student debt

8) Drink more water
9) Eat more fruits, vegetables & berries
10) Eat less pasta, dairy

11) Go to the gym 3 times a week

12) be patient, breathe
13) Stop being so lazy
14) Stop being scared - of failure, of standing out
15) don't think, DO!

16) go to Europe, see Paris, Stockholm
Now that there's an impending wedding, this might have to be pushed back to 2013 - but finger's crossed I win the lottery and can afford to do both!

Check out my visual list on Pinterest.

What about you dear readers? Do you make New Year's Resolutions?

  1. I love some of these resolutions. I also have to a) stop being so lazy and b) stop being scared of failure and standing out.

  2. Sounds like a lovely NYE- sometimes quiet nights in are the best! Great resolutions- I have exciting news about Dress for Success (I'll send you an e-mail!) I am also going to try to read before bed instead of being a tech junkie :)
