Day 1 of 365 pages

My grandest hope is that I will actually carve half hour each day to blog. I don't know if it's the Polyanna in me but there is something about the first day of a new year. The excitement of the possibilities of things to come seem endless. I have several things that I would like to see come to pass in 2014. I am training for a 10K and would like to be ready to fully run one before summer. Another is to make a schedule for the gym. The fact that I am now paying for a trainer hopefully will motivate me so I'm not throwing money away. My third goal is to have another job. I have been in the classroom for 11 years and I am ready for a new challenge. I am looking at administration but am open to other opportunities inside and outside the education field. Today, I am cooking my traditional New Year's Day dinner for the boyfriend and his parents which includes: Chicken Fried Steak, mashed potatoes, gravy, fried okra, cabbage, Mexican black-eyed peas and cornbread. I'm getting hungry already. I will post recipes with pictures shortly. Happy New Year to all! Hope 2014 is the best year of your life! Let me know your goals!
