i've been thinking

it's time to just grow up.

i need to start paying attention to myself, and my lifestyle, and my actions, and just start acting like the adult I profess to be.

I'm working enough and making enough that I shouldn't have to worry (too much) about my finances, So why I am I? Because I spend more on eating out and unnecessary items than I should.

I weigh more than I want to, and I'm not as flexible or as fit as I'd like to be? Why? Because I drink sugary coffee drinks, and lots of alcohol, and I never work out or buy myself healthy food.
I mean, I havent gone grocery shopping in weeks. WEEKS. and last time I did, i bought alot of frozen, processed foods that arent very healthy.

So, I was inspired by my dearest Shelby and her blog to set just a few summer goals:

1- Stretch EVERY DAY
2- Do something cardiovascular EVERY DAY
3- Keep track of finances, balance checking account weekly.
4- Limit Drinking to Special Events/Gatherings, and limit intake to 2-3 drinks, max. Also, use fat free milk and sugar free flavorings in coffee.
5- Just take care of ME. Just me. Focus on me. If something annoys me, deal with it- either fix it or talk to the person who can. Being passive-agressive is NOT helping me be an adult.

Thats all. Just 5. I'm writing them down by hand as well, and putting them in my phone where I'll see them every day. And we'll see, by the time I move out in August I want to have dropped at least 10lbs, and be more in control and secure in my finances. Fingers crossed, here we go. :)
