another month bites the dust

end of may, last day, to be exact. & i'm fifteen calendar days into this blog. just a bit over two weeks, so i can't really expect any sort of dramatic transformations, except that i do. i will say that i'm proud of myself for actually keeping up with this thus far, & even posting new blogs a few times a week, so yea, kudos to me! & through my random typed babbling i may have learned a thing or two about myself. so a good start, not so bad, not so bad.

my birthday is just a couple of weeks away. right now i'm still in the mid-260's & i'm really really hoping to be back into the 250's by the time my birthday rolls around. on the one hand, seriously, how will a few pounds make a difference? but then again, that would actually make me feel lots & lots better. back near the start of the year i was hoping to be down into the 220's by then. that won't happen without loss of limb, & i'm very attached to all my limbs, so i think i'll be keeping them.

two weeks until my birthday. two weeks from tomorrow that is, so fourteen days between now & then. so resolution time kids. yeah, i do realize it's june, not january. but i'm about to turn from 28 to 29, just a hair away from the big 3-0. so let's do some resoluting for my last couple weeks of my 28th year. fourteen goals? one for everyday? or maybe five 'cause it's a nice prime number? i think we'll go with five. i can always drum up an additional unofficial nine to keep them company. but for public record, here's the five things i want to accomplish in the next two weeks.

the official list:
~drink at least 96oz of water/day
~make my bed everyday
~exercise 10 out of the next 14 days for at least 60min/day
~write 28 poems
~only eat out 2x in the next 14 days

the unofficial list:
~say one nice thing about myself each day
~write for an average of one hour each day
~attempt my firm workouts at least once
~take my puppy for 5, or more, walks
~get my hair cut
~get my 'lock lexxy up 1 level
~no eating after 9pm
~take the stairs at work once (up&down)
~write 10 blogs on here (excluding this one)

so we'll see what happens. i would like to give a big thanks to jenn for helping me come up with this list. & if i die on the stairs at work, she made me do it! : )
