New year, New YOU...eerrr me

I know A LOT of people out there make new years resolutions. I make them every year and usually forget them with in a week. This year is going to be diffrent! I have put together what I think is a nice little, reasonable list for me. Here it is with a little explanation:

2011
1.)No Procrastinating/Being Lazy
   I'm queen procrastinater and lazier than shit, it needs to change
2.)Cook dinner at home @ least 3 nights a week
   3 nights may sound low to most people, but to me it's A LOT. I dont hate
   cooking, im just lazy and we both enjoy going out to eat. Eating out so much
    costs a lot of money. We are trying to be wiser with our spending!  
3.)Exercise @ least twice a week
   We have a home gym in our new house, I want to get healthy and in shape. I
    have no exscuse not to.
4.)Finish every project I start before moving on to a new one
   I start a lot of projects, and dont finish them
5.)Start AND finish all the projects I've been saying im going to
   I have a million things on my to do/wish list. I keep saying im going to do
    or make them, and I never get around to it. Im going to make time and make
    myself do it.
6.)Ride my bike around the neighborhood with Savannah
   We have a perfect bike riding/walking neighborhood. Savannahs got a cool new
    bike so I'll have a partner and wont be alone.
7.)Get a bike to ride around the neighborhood with Savannah
   I know the bike I want, just havent gotten it yet. I'm obviously not going to
    get my whiney ass out on a bike in the middle of winter. So we decided to wait
    closer to spring to purchase the bike, aka save up for it instead of using a
    credit card :-)
8.)Make @ least 4 new friends this year
   Already made 2! We are so lucky and our new next door neighbors are around our
    age and so cool.
9.)Go to more garage/estate sales
   Besides the fact im really cheap, I like redoing things. Refurbishing
    something thats not quite there anymore. Plus you can find some of the
    coolest things at those places!
10.)Become a healthier person
    Part of exercising and riding the bike. ALSO not eating as much greasy nasty
     food. All around healthier life style
11.)Do yard work so I'm not embarrassed of my front and back yard
    Firstly because its a snake pit it needs to change. Secondly more open space
     for the dogs to run around. Thirdly it looks like we dont go outside, yuck.
12.)Put more effort into looking "put together" in public
    I wear bare minimal makeup out in public and I look sloppy 95% of the time.
     Now that my hair is long enough for a real pony tail its usually in one.
     Carrie Bradshaw inspires this "resolution" every time I watch SATC.
13.)Make my mason jar chandelier
    Its awesome. I need it in my house. Im too cheap to buy it when I am fully
     capable of making it myself! :-)

WISH ME LUCK! and good luck to everyone else who make new years resolutions, Hope you can stick with them :-)
