my name is kate...

 nearly one thousand?!?!?!!!?

over FIFTY thousand?!!?!!!!

oh yeah, i think this is a problem. i've got it down to 10 things i want to post to my facebook, but i've just posted and don't want to overwhelm the stream. or things i might blog about shortly. plus i have an email full of links to save on my home computer. (have i heard something about google bookmarks?) or music to download and oatmeal cartoons i heart but i'm not sure what to do with. will the change my life? NO. but some little part of me says they will. i think this means i'm a google reader hoarder. i'm suddenly going to start blogging because of this, this inspired me SO much... yeah.

ten goals for the tenth month

mine

One of my favorite things of a new month is revealing the newest month of my beautiful SusyJack* calendar. I love unique designs, the colors and that colors are not predictable (not orange for October! not green for March!) It's a beautiful calendar and I may leave it up well into 2011.

I have a huge amount of goals for this month. I'm officially on online dating sabattical and with that there's a lot I want to achieve for myself, my health, my heart and my head. I want to find some balance in my life and not obsess about one particular thing. "one track mind"

here we go ten goals for the tenth month:

1. go to the gym or a workout class TWICE a week!

2. write. share.

3. walk once a week. 

4. read.

5. make a new friend. 

6. love your old friends.

7. talk less. listen more. think before you speak.

8. sew.

9. be neat.

10. find the balance.

plus i'm doing this new health challenge game called health month. here are my six goals (some duplicates):

1. No fried food  2. Take a multivitamin every day  3. Drink at least 40 glasses of water per week  4. Exercise for 30 minutes at least 2 times a week  5. Get quality alone time at least 2 days a week  6. Go out and be social at least 2 days a week

 

And with that I'm out. Thanks for stopping by (my dear ghost George who I am sure is the only person actually reading this! :)
