New year...yes I know we're already a month into it, but I decided its time to start fresh. Also I just couldn't stand any of my posts -- so they have all been reverted to drafts. :D I might re-publish a few of the poems (if you can call them that) that I really loved. but other than that...fresh start.
I have been trying really really hard to make sure my family is eating healthy. Less junk food, less candies. I've been cooking dinner nearly every night and making sure they both have healthy, filling breakfasts and a good substantial lunch. But let me tell you...it's hard! With two picky eaters?! Its really really hard! Luckily my 4 year old listens more so when I say eat your dinner he'll eat it .. like it or not. My 2 year old on the other hand...if he doesn't like it he is sure to let me know! He'll spit it out until theres nothing left to spit out...and still keep spitting.
I've also been coming out of my shell a bit and socializing a whole lot more...which fr those who know me is a HUGE deal! I mean just today I went out with a group of people I never met. 2 single guys, 3 single girls, and a couple and their one year old daughter....and on top of that I actually participated in the conversation!!! Normally I would have hidden in the corner with the one year old and my sons and tried to make myself invisible. But I didn't! I am sooo proud of me! :D
And I am planning on planning (lool thats funny!) a kinda spa date with another woman on my compound. I met her once and loved her! She's blunt and sarcastic and just plain amazing! I just wish she had kids...but all in good time! She's newly married...like 5 months or something. but she is just so cool and i want to be her best friend. I'm also actually considering getting a baby sitter for the boys so we can double date with her and her husband. My husband hates her because her sense of humor is exactly like mine..but you know what??? whoo cares!!! :D
I've also been doing a lot of baking....but healthy baking! My most recent thing is Apple Carrot Coconut Muffins. The boys hated them, i think because of the texture. But my husband and I loooved them! They were soo good...kinda surprising that there was no sugar in them...just honey.
I'm seriously considering opening some kind of bakery or restaurant...but the thought of serving so many people kind of scares me. I'm also contemplating lasik..so I can wake up and not be blind...and so that tiny bacteria doesn't get caught under my lense and burrow a hole through my cornea.

there's something about this year, i'm telling you. everyone i know is actually getting their stuff together and self-improving and finding and following and sticking to goals and the cynical part of me wants to throw up on all of us, but the other part thinks it's so great.
