Begin As You Mean To Go On…

I have to admit, yesterday wasn’t a day where I concentrated much on either of my goals for this month, but it was probably one of the best starts to a new year I’ve ever had. Why? Simple. A friend of mine was in New York (she lives far away now) and we got together, had a great dinner and talked about “life, the universe and everything.”

This particular person and I have been friends for about 26 years. I think she’s the “oldest” friend I have at this point, whom I’m still in somewhat regular contact with. We don’t see each other often – maybe once a year or so – and we only talk on the phone every once in a while, but it doesn’t matter. We’re still as close now as we were in high school. And there are precious few people I can say that about nowadays.

So hanging out with my “old” friend was really special. If the rest of the year is as nice, I’m in for a great one!

But The Cheesecake Factory definitely didn’t help with my fitness goal and I didn’t write a single word on any of my WIPs. Oh, well… it was a holiday, right? So I can really get started today. Okay, I have my mission. We’ll see how I do.

I’m just thrilled so many of you want to join in this little informal challenge I’ve got going. If you’re coming to this late, don’t feel bad, you can join in the “fun” too! Just leave a comment and tell us what your goals are for the month, then come back each Thursday to report on your progress.

I’ve got some great guest blogs lined up, so stay tuned each day for something new…
