SO SAD. I KNOW. Wow. This is just sad. I'm so ashamed. I'm cringing with embarrasment. I claim to be a writer. I profess my love for writing and reading and devouring books and words. And yet, there are a good solid 6 months between my last blog post and now. Tragic, really. Sigh.

I wont give you the excuses that I could - well, if you want, I'll tell you, but they are not that exciting. I'm not claiming that I'm going to write something everyday - I'll do my best but I dont think every day is going to happen. What I will tell you is all the exciting things I'm trying to make happen, both in my personal and professional life.

Sure, sure. Maybe it seems a little "new year, new jess" or "new year's resolution-y" but I'm okay with that. I think that by writing it, er typing it down, sets said text into the universe and then I'm sort of cosmically-obligated to fulfill those ideas. Being a firm beliver in karma, I sure as hell dont want any entity tied to karma or fate or destiny being annoyed with me, thankyouverymuch.

So that said, one to my...what to call these? I dont want to say resolutions, I dont want to call them goals. They are just "things" I want to work on, or with, or towards - sort of inspiration to the Jessica that I want to become.

Being that this is pretty long already, I'll make a few notes here and then address them one by one with further posts - albeit not every day but we will aim for more than once a week.
Without further ado...
1. I definitely want to write more this year. I sort of have this creative planner schedule agenda in my head so that I can get all the writing I want to do actually done while its in my head. Being that I write this blog for myself and whoever wants to read it, another one for a local organization and I'm contemplating proposing one for my current full-time job along with a social media overhaul, this will probably involve an addition to my already color-coded planner.

2. Move my butt! Lord knows that as a writer I sit on my rear. Alot. And since I absolutely positively loathe working out, this should be a real treat to find something I actually like doing. Any suggestions are great appreciated. Oh and if you are going to make suggestions, you should know I'm not a group exerciser, at the most I'm ok with one other person, usually a trained professional. I've done some boxing, dance and cross-country, outdoorsy type stuff before and that was pretty fun. So we will see what I can find that gets my rear in gear.

3. Push my passions! I adore a good number of my life's varying aspects. I like what I do full-time, enjoy my part-time work, Love, with a capital L, my beau, the furkids, our life together and who I have become and am becoming with him, and of course, want to write when I can. I have so much joy for my many diverse task that I really want to take them or help take them to then next level and get each one shining and sparkling in its own individual way. More to come on this for sure, this is where alot of those ideas in my head come into play. They just float around in there until I can get them out and in motion and processing thru my creative systems.

Woo-hoo! I feel great about my post. I might just take an eco-mulligan and print it out for my mirror or fridge so I can remind myself everyday of all the awesome things I am going to accomplish. I definitely think this post made up for my 6 months abscence.
