Jan. 12, 2006 - Sticking to my New Year's resolutions!
Wow, January 12th already, Time flies.
Proud to say I have stuck to all my resolutions so far! Of
course, I'll get back to you with that, say, in March. We'll see!
I have been staedily improving my diet, drinking more water, and
exercizing faithfully. Today it was lower body/cardio. I
walked over to the park and did walking laps around the field, stopping
at each corner to do either walking lunges or squats. Some
teenagers looked at me funny. Yeah, wait til they get to be 30
with 3 kids and a ruined body, then we'll see who's laughing! Hah!
I have also been faithfully writing and I have had the most insatiable thirst for reading my bible.
I think there's something about turning 30 that puts life in a whole
new light. Not that I think I'm, old or anything, but I thought
to myself "self, presumably, 1/3 of my life has gone by." I
thought, what have I done, and what do I intend to do with the
remaining 2/3 of my life? It kind of gives you a sense of
urgency, you know?
Dominic is working on a research paper on the middle ages, specifically
siege warfare. It's his first experience with a large scale
report of this kind, with gathering info from various sources, drafts
and more drafts, revision, bibliographies, etc. I always hate
doing it in school, but I feel it's important.

Shannon,
You are really doing a GREAT job with your resolutions. Especially the exercising. Keep up the good work.........
And good luck to Dominic on his research paper. I always hated those and am not looking forward to "teaching" it. But, like you said, it's important.
