Excuses, excuses (Spinning in the New Year)

This week's Spin Cycle topic is Resolutions. I like to participate in the Spin Cycle when I can, and I don't have any moral objections to New Years Resolutions, but the truth is this year I don't have any, and I don't feel like making any.

I don't want to spin with a bad attitude, but having a baby and graduating at the same time (and more especially the six months between now and then) are so overwhelming to me right now that I don't even want to think about anything, let alone make more goals. Of course, there are the little, hard to measure goals and tasks that remain constant in life like being a better mommy, getting my homeschool act together, eating more fruits and vegetables, getting a Sunday School lesson prepared every week, personal scripture study....

Maybe my resolution should be to stick with all the goals I already have without losing it.

Whether you plan to just keep your head above water or ring in a whole new you, here's hoping your new year is full of contentment, surprises and not too much more than you can handle.

I sure as heck wouldn't be making any resolutions when I'm pregnant! As far as Im concerned, especially with pregnancy, live in the moment!
You're linked and great piece!

I feel for you. I'm also too overwhelmed to make any this year. Mine constant ones are pretty similar to yours.

Loved your posts on baby movement and the pajamas. :)
