I am not sure if resolutions work so I will make some sort-of-resolutions. Not total promises but just some thoughts to put in front of my mind for 2010.
1. Run One 5K- Already signed up for this in April. Something to look forward to.
2. Start going to gym when I drop of kids to school, I need that extra motivation not to return home from dropping them off. It is usually a mile and a half 3-4 times a week.
3. Pursue my amovieaday.wordpress.com project. One movie a day for 365 days, I did 2 movies today. So I guess I can bank "Transformers, Revenge of the Fallen". Crappy Movie with Special Effects.
4. Eat healthier, try to hit the farmers market more. Cook more
5. Try to use coupons if possible. I don't bother to collect or look for them. Maybe, I can save money to travel more.
6. Think about buying stuff. Do I really need that shirt, trinket, stationery, cute on sale thing at Anthropologie/Urban Outfitters? Where will it be in six months? I know this may work for some things but not others.
7. Go to the dog park more. Dogs need exercise too...
8. Go out once a week with friends/or have them come to me
9. Clean off desk once a week so it doesn't build up and I won't become one of those people on Hoarders.
10. Time Management- Read, Watch, Internet, Learn.
11. Enjoy Life- don't obsess about having to find a job that I will dislike... accept my life as a consultant, Stay-at-Home Mom, Volunteer.

One Day Left
One day left of 2009. Won't miss you baby. But I did have some highlights, both good and bad.
January- Got to see my grandma in Yuma. Saw my friend's band Black Heart Procession at the Casbah (first time at the Casbah).
February-Start of the decline of my former company.
March- Started posting on twitter, just playing around experimenting.
April- A lot of depressing stuff going on at work. I did find use for youtube though.
May- Finally got laid-off (blessing in disguise- maybe). Lots of thoughts on Paris and changing my life.
June-Airborne Toxic Event (Event), that was a fun night, met the band for the first time. Anthology is a very cool venue. Got a new dog Lola, she was a rescue from the Camp Pendleton Animal Shelter.
July-Went to my first-ever Tweetup, VIP treatment. As glamourous as it sounds, it wasn't. No talking with Shawn Merriman, but I did meet some friends IRL. Entering the Social Media Whirlwind started re-learning at UCSD for a class taught by Becky Carroll. Great times. My sis visited an i went to the San Diego Zoo. Went to see Horsies and Airborne Toxic Event again.
August- Saw Airborne Toxic Event yet again on the roof of the Hard Rock Hotel. I guess I had a summer fetish with Airborne Toxic Event. Two of the Three events were radio-sponsored. I am not sure how I got to attend these, but I did. 4-day Road Trip: San Diego-Palm Desert-Camarillo-San Jose-Camarillo-San Diego. Lost my cat (she was 9)...She wandered somewhere and didn't return :(
September- Yee Haw, I went to Dallas for a wedding. Saw Kathy Griffin Live.
October- Ahh, Regina Spektor Piano Goddess- saw her at HOB. BlogWorld in Las Vegas, what a fun group of people- can't wait till next one, Halloween is always fun, Saw some oldies with Elise at Jack's Fourth Show
November- David Sedaris (got to see him), Gary Vaynerchuk (got to meet him too), Thanksgiving with my folks up north. Nice road trip.
December- Nice quiet month for celebrating the holidays. Ready for 2009 to be over and focus on all the good things to come in 2010. I am fortunate to have despite the few setbacks. They say good things come to those who wait.
