It's My Year!


This weekend is fabulous.  Starting with a swim to the Moke's.  The water was awesome. Clear and not too cold.  Tons of people were out kayaking and surfing.  Tons of five or six honu were out chilling.  We were the only swimmers.


Then I found my mantra for the year.  In a nail salon of all places.  This was the first color I picked up.  Purple with gold glitter.  #pretty. I looked at the name... It's My Year!  Heck yeah!  That's the color for my toes.  And the mantra for this year.

I have fat toes.

I might have told my friends "It's my year!" a few too many times last night. But they were good sports and conceded I could have it, they wouldn't challenge me for it.  We had a late season Christmas dinner.  The boys cooked and the girls drank wine.  That's how it should be in my year right?



It was an awesome evening of fun and good food (and too much wine!).  We are a bunch of awesome cooks (who also have good taste in wine).

Wish I had a better camera...there should be a full moon rising in that picture.

They made up rules for the 50 First Dates.  Some are good rules. Some are bunk.  A hookup doesn't count unless he buys me breakfast the next day (I didn't think this one was necessary...but).  A third date puts the whole thing on hold and for every week I date the guy who I had a 3rd date with, I can subtract a first date (I might need someone to do the math).  They agreed the whole story of the first date should be written down somewhere.  They want pictures posted too.  But I don't think so. I'm working on a new blog.  I'll add it to my to do list sometime this week.

How did Week 1 of my year go? My resolutions check:

-Ocean swim. Check.  UH Masters was N/A this week.  

Love this picture so much I wanted to post it twice!

-Daily fruit/veggie smoothie.  Check.

It was more like 2-3 of this size glass a day.
I might cut back a little #fiberisnotalwaysyourfriend

-I didn't get up early to workout this week.  Because well....define early.  I will next week when classes start and I figure out a routine.  

Should be an easy fix... turn ON the 5:15-M/W/F alarm.

-To do lists.  Made them. Check.  But there weren't a lot of checks on the to do lists by the end of the day.  Oops.  Mostly because I overestimated how many hours were in a day.  The good news is by Sunday at noon the things on all the lists were done.  So check on the check marks!

Finally!
