2016 Health, Books & Blogging

These roses were thriving on our Christmas visit to Northern Virginia.
The temperature was over seventy degrees, and humid. Yuck!
(I hate humidity.)

Happy New Year, yes?

Only a week has passed, so starting fresh is still a possibility.

Here's to 2016 goals! ^_^

My husband and I were gifted fitbits for Christmas from his parents! Yay! We were contemplating buying Microsoft's version, because they're cheaper, so these are a welcomed gift. 

Living healthier is number one on my New Year resolution checklist. 

Reading more books than I did  last year is number two. 

Writing in my blog instead of using Facebook as a one stop shop is my third goal.

I have a crappy habit of starting blogs, then abandoning them before they really begin, so this resolution is really exciting to me.

 I want to use Facebook a lot less. 

It's so easy for me to get caught up in the abundant personalities and beliefs that litter the common place. I'm guilty of correcting people when they post things that are untrue, or morally/ethically unsound.

 After many experiences, it's my opinion that leaving long responses is  usually futile. A quick retort would be better in most cases. And, if I really needed to get something off my chest, I'll write it out in here. 

Being a strong willed,  opinionated woman is rather awesome most times. I love expressing my beliefs. My personality is just a bit too much for social media. 

I've deleted over four Fb responses and posts in just the past week. Hushing myself sucks.

To wrap this up, it's a relief knowing that if people really wish to read my rants, raves, and general thoughts, they can find me here. Because I'll be writing.
