- I have learned that I love getting on the elliptical first thing in the morning. 10 to 15 minutes really wakes me up and jumps my metabolism for the day. Up until last week, I've been doing a mile a day during the week (weekends don't count because I never. stop. moving.). Little man and I both had the sinus crud last week.
- I re-taught myself how to crochet and have made three dishcloths. I found some fun yarn at Hobby Lobby last weekend and plan on making it into a pair of slippers.
- Up until three weeks ago when we started remodeling our other bathroom (the one with the tub), I was getting in a weekly really good long bath full of candles and magazines and epsom salts. So relaxing! We should have the bathroom back this weekend and I plan to make good use of the new tub with the sloped back.
- I got a new hairstyle! I now have long bangs and LOVE them! Even my husband is still commenting on them weeks after the fact!
- Essie nail polish has a new color out called Armed and Ready. It's not gray...it's not green...it's not brown...it has some copper and red flakes in it that only stand out in the sunshine...it's totally different than anything else I've worn before and I've rocked it a few times already.
- I've baked bread every other weekend and have kept our little family in homemade bread this year. How many additives and preservatives have we NOT consumed because I have this great recipe that's really only about 15 minutes hands on that yields two loaves at a time? Worth it? Totally!
Edited to add - I've lost four pounds so far!
2012 - so far, so good. Let's keep rolling with it!
