2017 is here and that means a new start. We can't change the past, but we can work on making ourselves better this year. I have some goals like always and I'm going to be doing my best to make sure I stick to them.

First: Get Healthy

I'm still in recovery from back surgery, but when I can get back to a more active lifestyle. I'm not going to waste it. I want to be able to do so much in my life, so I need to focus on keeping me healthy.

Plan - Eat better, work out, and strengthen my body

Second: Wedding Planning

I'm going to make sure I enjoy this time. I know I'm going to get stressed and have a few melt downs. I, however, don't want to forget what this means. I'm planning the day I get to become Shane's wife. I want to remember this forever.

Plan - Take it all one step at a time

Third: My Blog

2016 brought me the courage to start my website and my blog. This is to help me. I wanted to use this as a place to be creative, to talk, to focus my energy when I need a break from reality. With my health at the end of the year and other stresses, I drifted away from my website. This new year gives me a chance to move forward and make it better.

Plan - Create and follow a schedule even when I don't want to.

Fourth: Financial Stability

With each year, I look to pull myself a little further out of debt. I still have a long road ahead, especially with a wedding. I have tools that I'm going to put into place and see how they work.

Plan - Focus on my budgeting and freelancing opportunities.
