Usually I don't make a big deal out of new year's resolutions because I don't want to fail. Really, who DOES? But, this year is a milestone in several ways, and I have high hopes that I can reach some mountaintops and make a difference. So ... here are a few things I am resolving:1) I will lose weight. My weight is currently 174. My goal is to lose 30 pounds. There, I said it.2) I am turning 40 this year. This is not "over the hill" but "coming into my prime." I will make sure I don't act 40, and stay young in heart, mind, and soul!3) I will exercise. I want better breath control for my singing, and more endurance for physical activity.4) I will be a better teacher. I love teaching the preschoolers and I want to continue to expand the program and offer more to them, both in movement and music appreciation.That first goal is daunting. I dream nightly of a surgery to just cut off the extra fat that I see on my gut and thighs, but that isn't going to happen on my meager wages. Nor would it be a permanent solution. But, maybe if I could just get some fat-eating nanobots? *LOL* Please support me :)Let's look forward together, friends.
