What will 2012 bring?

I make goals for myself when the New Year's Eve arrives. I always try to work on me physically, mentally and emotionally. I never liked to call them New Year's resolutions. I'm not sure why. Could be just the term. Almost like I'm expected to fail because who ever completes or accomplishes their New Year's resolutions? :) I definitely want to lose weight which I'm currently working on. I'm constantly trying to find motivation to write. I bought Overcoming writer's Block for Dummies and as much as I try the mind exercises, my writing mind doesn't seem to be clicking. I haven't written a piece since May or June. So that's another goal of mine; to at least write a page each week and then move up to a page a day. I want to slow down my over thinking train. It's forever going so I want to slow it down a little bit and try to enjoy life. I mean really enjoy it. Quiet moments, jazz moments, husband and I watching Law & Order, spending time with the family, a sunrise---just enjoy time and life. A light bulb went off after my husband and I went to St. Louis. Before we left, we both said it doesn't matter what we do, it will be all good because it'll spent with each other. Just us. I can remember several moments where I wasn't enjoying time with him because I was worrying about money. Were we going to have enough? Even though I had a money plan set up before we left, we were thrown a small curve ball and the plan just evaporated and I got worried. It took for my husband to say a couple of times "Just chill. Quit worrying." Finally I did and we had a blast but had I just relaxed and laughed it off, I wouldn't have lost those moments. So when we go on our cruise, I will enjoy everything and try my hardest to just relax and NOT WORRY. What else? We'll be moving this year from the current apartment. We're looking at both options in regards to a house -rent or own? Work is going well but I have been thinking about moving up the ladder or at least trying something new within company. Husband just got promoted with his employment so he's going on a new journey. (I'm so proud and excited for him!) This year I just want to get to that point of not worrying. Calming my brain, my sleep, my thoughts-everything. I'm going to make 2012 great! Cheesy, I know but positive thinking, right?
