Things for me to be excited about: A List

1. I'm going to visit my sister and nieces this weekend for my oldest niece's 4th birthday party!  I don't know when I'll be coming back.
2. I started a great young professional's leadership class tonight and met some truly wonderful individuals.  Someone is giving me advice on job hunting and resume and another one, a cop, is pretty cool because he patrols my 'hood.  Plus, I new probably 6 or 7 people in my class. 
3. We get to go to an outdoor camp thing with ropes courses and stuff soon, to develop trust and other stuff among the class participants.  And I get to do it again in March for another group!
4. I went to Nordstrom Rack today and bought 2 pairs of dress pants, one jumper, one dress, and stockings.  This is exciting because I now have professional attire that fits! 
5. I decided to stop drinking alcohol for the month of February.  If I can not drink during valentine month, I am a rock star.  I'll also learn that my radiant, vivacious personality shines through without liquid courage. 
6. My newest goal is to lose 5lbs in the month of February.  Not drinking should help this. 
7. I started going to the gym again. 
8. I'm going to learn to cook healthy things, instead of all the full-fat recipes I've been making for the last 5 months. 
9. A new hair colour will likely be applied to my hair soon, along with a hair cut.
10. I get to babysit my nieces on Monday night!!
