Now here's a list of a few things I want to do, get back to doing or is just itching to come off my bucket list... Then again, I don't have a bucket list. I think I've done everything I have wanted to do or try. I have gone to places, even though I'm not much of a traveller. Hmmm. So slight detour on this approach. Here's a list of cool things I did this year, just to remind me of what I might want to be doing in 2015.
2014 Retrospective
Winter, not so winter in Southern Cali, but I actually brought mild weather with me to Indy. Happy New Year with Indy and Aussie cousins. Trampoline and Nerf War joy! Hot Chocolate, Resolution Run and hikes. Spring broke through and off to the races Ragnar relay with the fambam... Visits to Legoland and Disney!
Summer fun in the Phillipines island hopping from Calamba to Boracay to Cebu to Bohol and Manila. A joyous vacation followed by a 50th Uncle Elsie and Auntie Lu anniversary Indy visit while bumping into some Canadian cousins! Then my friends and family of September babies ended the summer with a DISNEY RESORT BIRTHDAY EXTRAVAGANZA!!!
Started the fall with a MKTO, Christina Perri, Demi Lovato concert, a visit to the Golden Gate city for a hilly half marathon, a Captain America filled Halloween and played support crew for my cousins and sister in the Disney Avengers Half.
Winding down the year with the Grinch and an Electric Run, another 50th Anniversary with Uncle Bert and Auntie Pansing, a Murrieta Christmas and a long and winding relay with a Christmas rap at the Labaria's. Will be ending the year with a Straight No Chasers concert
All and all and in between I was surrounded by my lovable mutts, my crazy whack but loving family, my fun seeking friends and an ever present God who always humbles and blesses me!
Thank you 2014... There were bumps and bruises... but in the end the love and joy won out...
Now to 2015
Looking forward to a less cluttered new year, given that I've organized my place and cleared out some junk. It has and will continue to be a work in progress. I plan to also clean up my food intake, as usual. So what lies in store for 2015?
With the winter, I will be on the mountain... Mammoth is in my 2015 headlights, match that with an early year visit to my favorite place and happiest place on earth... Disneyland. Looking forward to snowboarding and the general joy of Disney.
However with a new year comes the typical around the belly reflection... It is BIGGEST LOSER TIME! The cousins are back at it... Same bets, but another 2 years older... Let's do this!!!! Again.. Hopefully it stays off... but we are a family that loves each other and the food that accompanies our socializing :)
As for big trips... None planned for this year, but I'm hoping you'll find me in Indiana with my cousins and some activities that will take me on a different path.
I want to do a triathlon, a spartan race and Wipeout, the 5K. I want to run with my friends and family again this year, because I was a bit injured. I'll be playing football in a league and I plan on staying healthy.
So there in lies my one major goal... I want to lose 30 pounds this year and be more consistent with my health. In terms of consistency, that means eat right, sleep more, worry less and balance the highs and lows. It is very doable, just gotta DO!
So not any major plans, but the majors are in the minor details. Little things like finding time to spend with family and friends. Cherishing the moments with "my kids" and my parentals and sisters! Loving the cousins near, far, by blood and not necessarily so... but cousins nonetheless..
Well I hope I can live up to who I am... It's kinda cool that I can look back at 2014 and be pretty darned OK with it all.. When I look at my pictures, although fuller in cheeks, I still see all the joy of the daze!
