Goals, and a new project!
If you are reading this in a feed reader, I am sorry, It will keep poping up as I make changes.
Now that I know a few people read this blog, I’m going to ask them all for a favor.
I am going to write down a list of my goals, and commit to a new project. If anyone reading this sees me slacking off, just let me know - Please.
Goals:
* Happiness
I am happy most of the time, but I get really down sometimes, I’d like to do things to prevent this
* Fitness
I was doing “Crossfit”:http://crossfit.com for a while, but now that I don’t belong to a gym, it is hard
Time is (of course) my least flexible resource…
Discipline is tough for me
* Projects
I want to learn Ruby, then use Ruby on Rails to make a few ideas that have been bouncing around in my head
* A new (for me) car
I need a better way to get Ellie and my future bike around - I wanted to get a used element, but A) my credit is bad, and B) they are hard to find used. I think I will pick up an older Mini Van once my credit is a bit better.
* A house
This is a further goal - but again, it is mostly for Ellie (and future dogs!)
Now for the project announcement!
The *Things I eat* project
I am going to take pictures of everything I eat, and post them to “flickr”:http://flickr.com/groups/thingsieat. The point of this is to bring awareness to the things I’m eating, so I can make better descisions. As of right now, this project is new and exciting, so my first day is going to be awesome - good food choices, good portion control. But I know, that as I go on, I will slip - that is where I need people to give me a kick in the butt and get me back on track. John had a good idea - so I’ve also started a flickr group “Things I Eat” so anyone can join in the fun (both advice AND taking pictures of your own food).
