2018 Resolutions Recap
1. Read 25 books. After last year's NYE drunk reading saga, I was determined not to wait until the last minute to hit my reading goal. At the time of this post, I have read 37 books. Here are some of my faves.
Made me laugh: Born a Crime, The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society
Made me think: Just Mercy, Where the Crawdads Sing
Made me cry: The Hate U Give
Made me inspired: The Boys in the Boat, Bobby Kennedy: A Raging Spirit
2. Get rid of my cystic acne and acne scars. This is a tough one but I am a woman on a mission!This year I invested in myself and my face and it's one of the best decisions I've ever made. I've been seeing Amy at Eco Chateau for bi-weekly facials and my skin is better than it was but we had to be careful about what products/treatments we were using due to the pregnancy.
3. Lose 25 pounds and overall be healthier. Welp, this did not happen. Instead of losing weight I became pregnant and gained 30 pounds. I may not be thinner but I have the world's cutest baby!
4. 10,000 steps a day. I was really good about this until the end of my pregnancy when my feet started swelling like crazy and the only footwear that I could wear comfortably were Sanuk sandals.
5. Work on professional growth. I really worked hard on this one and it paid off! I won an Excellence in Marketing award this year at our annual marketing conference. Reading Great at Work changed the way approached my work and inspired me to rethink the processes I used to accomplish projects and work with different teams. I also embraced mentoring some of my younger colleagues which has been fulfilling. **Patting myself on the back**
Alright, now let's get to it. What am I going to do to improve myself in 2019?
