It has been some time since I've last written in my blog. Although I have been quite active on my social network sites. I've been putting in a lot of thought about the things I would like to accomplish this year. I'm not really into the whole new year's resolution thing but I do take time at the end of the year and into the new one to assess my life. A time to "spring clean" my being...my mind, body and soul. So needless to say I've been doing a ton of thinking about my life and the direction I'm heading and there is always something I would like to change or strive for. And this new year it is the same.
The first of which is my health. I had managed losing 17 pounds but amidst all the festivities of December I managed gaining about 10 pounds of it back. So back on the wagon I go. The main issue has been just all the junk food constantly around and I've been weak. It's just been a crazy couple of months. We've kind of quit working out as we moved and kind of got out of the habit of walking. We are indeed going to get back into the habit though. I need to shed this weight off and keep it off. I need to get into a better health pattern in life. It feels so much better when you're healthy. I want to get back to that. I feel kind of gross that I've packed on a few in such a short time. So definitely my health is something I need to keep in the forefront of my mind.
The next thing I've put a lot of thought into is the amount of time I spend online. And mostly just how much time I spend on social network sites. I need to cut back not only on time but involvement online. The time I spend online could be better spent doing other things. I have really wanted to get back into making hemp jewelry. I've got a big ball of the stuff and tons of beads. My hands could be better served doing something slightly more productive. Plus that is more time that could be spent playing with my kids.
Speaking of the kids. I would like to continue working on being a great father. I would like to get them out more and us do more stuff. We like going hiking and camping and plus we just started doing geocache hunting which is totally amazing. If you've never heard of it check it out...especially if you have kids. It's an exciting treasure hunt of sorts. We've only done it a few times but it's so much fun. The kids absolutely love it. And there's an app on my phone for it which is awesome so we can cache on the go if we just randomly decide to like we did earlier today. Went for a hike and ended up looking for some caches. We didn't have any luck locating any but we had fun either way.
There are a lot of other little things I would like to work on. Being a better person as a whole and a better father and husband. There are things I want to attempt to learn this year. Such as hopefully music production as well as some minor programming. I'll probably start with some Android type stuff. Maybe eventually get into programming a rom which could be cool.
So that is really that. You know besides patience, understanding and all that other good stuff we need to survive in life. Especially for someone whom works in service and has children. And once again speaking of I should get off of here. We're currently watching The Dark Crystal. Such an amazing movie...even the kids have been intrigued the whole time.
