1 Week Off and Resolutions

I've had about 1 week off and some days from work. It's been really fun, and I've caught up on my sleep... but hopefully can return to blogging even though my days don't really lend themselves to much blogging and reading the internet. Through these days off, I've given some thought to what I want to try and accomplish in 2009

My 2009 goals are the following...

1) lose 20 lbs. I tried this last year and got nowhere although I didn't gain any weight. Will try again with increased workouts because my eating habits are not poor. Drink more water, etc.

2) start looking for graduate schools again. Possible try at MLS degree.

3) improve my professional wardrobe.

4) read more books

5) get more organized and get rid of items not needed or being used. This is huge for me, because I keep things for eventual use, but never get there. I already got rid of two bags of clothes this month.

6) be more social and develop professional network. I try to do this w/disciplined focus, but have slacked of in a major way in the last 2 years.

7) work in some fashion in a community post (school board or something). Not sure of what exactly to do here, but thinking local school board if I can handle dealing with more people than my usual day time job.
