Well, the first 100 days of 2012 are over. How are you doing on whatever your stated goals/intentions were on New Year's Eve?

Me, I'm doing about as predicted - lost my way, have to find it again. Time to reassess, se what made me stumble, think about how to avoid that again...

*looks up 12/31 post*

- start belly dancing and yoga classes

Actually doing all right on this - started belly dancing. COuld sue some more practice at home, and more regular exercise at home overall, but this one is going all right.

- if it's not delicious and/or you're not actually hungry, don't eat it

But what about when I'm upset? Or PMSy? Or something is terrible for me but tastes so good? Yeah, all right. Less desk-eating, less tv-eating, more table-eating. I eat so much less when I'm paying attention. Last night we had burgers and salad - no fries or potato-based sides, and I was so full I didn't even eat all the bun.

The difference? We ate at the table.

- write 2 stories/novellas/novels to submit AKA write for 2 hours every morning 5 days a week

Hahahaha. Yeah, no. After the frenzy of promo last week (which sin't finished, sadly), I am finally feleing itchy to write, though, so that's a good sign. I still think 2 hours a morning 5 days a week is a good goal/pattern. Maybe Wednesday... (Feel free to poke me, anyone reading.)

- reconnect with friends, both RL and fandom

Doing all right with this one, managing to generally keep a balance between alone time and social time.

- fix marriage

After several summit meetings and on-going negotiations and check-ins, the partnership seems to be going well and the sexytimes are back on the agenda. ;)

I don't make NYE intentions, because I'm always so disappointed in myself, but I admire people that make them. Not because they reach them - because they don't always do - but because they are willing and able to face a possible defeat.

So yeah: WELL DONE, YOU.

Am especially pleased to hear about the sexytimes. I'm not pervy although I really really am or anything, but in my head sexytimes is good news. :D

I used to write really long manifestos of my plans for the year... But lately I just try to pick what's really important, that I can probably achieve. ;) Set myself up for success rather than failure.

And thanks! Sexytimes FTW!

*smooches* Any movement, even backward, can help if you stop to think about where you messed up and how you can avoid doing it again. ;)

It's fantastic how well you're doing. I'm not much for resolutions myself (I have a problem with follow through) but I find it incredible when others can make the most of theirs.

Good luck continuing on for the next 100 days! ;)
