My One Word

My One Word for this year: "Again."

Hi all - it's been a while, eh? Life has gotten busy and I've neglected this blog, which is a bummer because it was/is a really fun outlet for me to share my recipes and crafts. So my one word for this year (click here if you don't know what this is all about) is again. Because...

In 2014...

• I want to get back to posting semi-regularly here again.
  • Time FLIES. If 2013 has taught me anything, is that time flies. I started my first full-time job this year and I've been learning time management. So instead of saying I don't have time, I am making time for things I like and love.
    
• I am going to lose the weight... again.
  • In 2013, my weight slowly crept up as I wasn't very active in the winter, and then I found myself out eating more towards the end, and it piled on. My weight is definitely one of the biggest things I struggle with and have struggled with for years. We're joining a gym as of... today, actually, and it's going to happen. I can't just say it's going to happen anymore.
    
• I actually want to have a year like 2013 again. 
• In 2013, the beginning of the year was a bit of a struggle as I worked to find myself, my car decided it was "time" and I had a burning desire to find my career.  But as the year went on, in about the middle of the year, I found my full-time career, which has led to awesome friendships, increased knowledge and more financial freedom - which all leads to happiness. I got to spend lots of time with family and friends. We got a new car after our old one bellied up, my family passed on their car to us and it's been great. Sure, there were some downs, like losing our family cat, whom I had since I was 6-7 and I'm now 26, Christmas with no power (but lots of memories), family members who got sick (but thankfully caught in time) but for the most part, it's been a pretty happy year. And for that, I'm incredibly thankful.
  
• We're going to house hunt again (!)
• Some of our nearest and dearest friends bought their first house this past year and it's been an exciting time for them. We're getting to where we're considering our first house and realistically taking a look at what we are going to do to make it happen.

 So here's my resolutions in a nutshell, and my one word for the year. "Again." What's yours?
