Ok! Ok! Ok! I realize that New Year's resolutions don't tend to stick, but I guess the desire for it to magically be easy is just so tempting. Last year, I made a bet to use my elliptical every single day for crying out loud! I lasted a month and a half, and unfortunately for the elliptical, it has been relocated from inside to out on our deck so that the site of it doesn't stir up any lost desire for healthiness. Basically, my husband screwed up by not actually selling the thing on craigslist the first day I didn't use it per the terms of the bet.
This go around, I decided that maybe, just maybe, I should set aside a competition and actually do something I want to do. I have been thinking about blogging for a while, and I have always come back to the minor little itsy bitsy detail that I am completely worthless at opening up to anyone......wait for it........unless I already know and love you. Then and only then will I bombard you with every thought that crosses my mind. Yes friends, it is ok to giggle here because you know it's the truth!
I'm thinking that blogging might potentially be a good practice round before throwing myself in the ring to actually open up to real people in person. Typically I have my guard up, and before I know it, I haven't said a word so that there isn't the slightest insight into how to take me down. It is just too bad that this particular strategy seems to leave a lot to be desired.
So, please be in my corner this year as I embark on this fight to speak my mind with an open heart.
