January 2010 Checkup

Posted on January 31, 2010 in resolved | 0 Comments

Two posts ago, also known as the beginning of this month, I resolved to do three simple things. Let’s check up on my progress into this year:

  1. Lose 2 pounds
  2. Close 2 new accounts
  3. Read 2 books

Lose 2 pounds

I don’t know how this didn’t happen, but, well no. Just no. I think it has to do with the fact that I used to change a toddler around the house almost the entire day. And now, I’m spending 9 hours a day at a desk. You see, for the last month I’ve been working with seriously awesome people at ChaiOne.

I’m working with all-stars and loving every second of it. But… the sitting and the drinking of coffee all day isn’t helping the poundage. Haven’t gained anything, but haven’t lost my oh-so-easy 2 pounds per month. Come on February!

Close 2 New Accounts

Done! Success! That’s if I’m counting ChaiOne, which I totally am since I’m spending so much time with them on a daily basis. That plus helping out the totally awesome Sarah James of Whoorl with her two sites… well, January was a spectacular month, career wise.

Read 2 Books

I’ll do you one better — I read three! Finished the third this afternoon! What books? oh nothing, just a little series about teenage vampires. Yes, twilight. AWo got all up in the series and … well, you know, I just haaaaaaaaad to read it to keep the marriage strong and did you know that Forks and La Push are real places in Washington? Check out the Forks Chamber of Commerce and their commendable effort to cash in on Twilight. I may have just suggested to Awo, 62% kidding, that we go to Forks and stay in the Cullen House. ouch. ok, movingon.

Even with the mancard implications that “der” so eloquently pointed out, I like being engrossed in a series again. [editors note: still likes women, beer, and golf. Just so we're clear].

Three books! When I hadn’t been reading anything for a while. Love that, and I hope that both AWo and I keep that up. We’re loving the Kindle app on my iPhone and her iTouch.

Roundup

I think I did pretty ok — I mean, 2/3 of resolutions is good right?!? But still…. somewhat of a failure on the fitness front. Come on JWO!!!!!

Febrauary Goals coming as soon as I can write something that’s not quite as lame as “same resolutions, but 4 pounds total”. Cause you know, lame.
