Life...

For my "resolutions" this year I made a list of 10 things that I want to accomplish, in no particular order.  I made my list at the first of the New Year but forgot to post it here.  Funny, because one of my 10 things is to update my blog more often...  anyway here is my list:

1) Get a job as a CNA
     *  apply as often as I can at hospitals - try to get into one of their nursing programs

2) Finish prerequs and apply for Nursing Program at SLCC
     *  Pass Chemistry and Chemistry Lab with B+s or higher
     *  Pass Physiology and Physiology Lab with B- or higher

3) Lose 50 pounds
     *  go back to the gym 4+ times a week
     *  when its nice out, take the kids to the park and go on walks and bike rides with them
     *  Eat healthier and cook dinner at home as often as possible
     *  take lunch to school instead of eating out

4) Take my kids to church on the weekends that I have them

5) Update my blog at the very least, monthly
     * I don't keep a journal so write things in your blog even if its just a few sentences.

6) When the weather is nice do something with the kids each weekend I have them.  Try new things!
     * Take the kids camping several times, even if its just me and the kids.
     * go to the Gateway and let the kids play in the water
     * go on hikes - donut falls, brical veil falls, alpine loop, etc.
     * go fishing
     * take the kids to a hotel for a nigh just to play and swim
     * Antelope Island
     * Saltaire
     * Childrens museum in Ogden
     * Visit Price

7) Stand up for myself when dating and don't worry so much about "finding" someone.

8) Stay in better contact with my family and friends

9) Get all debt paid off, except school loans (start paying on them when you go back to work)

10) Appreciate more, all that life has given me and be more patient with my kids.
