The most beautiful thing about the past few months is that I have really started to live. Breaking down walls and allowing my heart to open brought me the best blessing I could have ever asked for: a man who I truly, wholly believe is The One. I've settled into a nice, comfortable, mature adult relationship, and it has been lovely.
It has not, however, fixed all my problems. There are big goals ahead of me -- things I have to accomplish. The good news? 2012 is going to be the perfect year to accomplish them. These are things that go on my list every single year, and basically get ignored every single year. But not this year, because I finally have every reason in the world to tackle them once and for all.
The first obstacle to my happy future is my health. I will get it under control this year, with Zumba and Weight Watchers and doing what I need to get done. I will not ignore these goals: I want to be a beautiful bride, I want to be a trophy wife, I want to be amazing.
The second obstacle to my happy future is my financial profile. I've started to contribute to my 401(k) at work. I am going to switch my accounts out of Wells Fargo, I am going to start using a zero balance budget and an envelope system to manage my money, and I am going to begin a debt snowball to get rid of my debt. The main reason for this? My credit score HAS to improve this year, so I can get a great house and live a happy life.
The final major goal on my list for 2012 is to be completely organized. I've got a lot of blogs to help me get everything taken care of. Soon we'll be moving into a new place, and I'm going to start from scratch to run a household. The first two goals will dovetail into the third goal; I'll have everything organized and running smoothly in time for 2013!
I'm ready to go, and I'm ready to document it all. So be on the lookout for more posts from me soon!
