After deciding to make a New Year’s resolution to go on 29 dates in 2009 I did the math to find that I will have to go on a date every 12 days to reach my goal. It is February 1st and I’ve already been on four dates, so I’m ahead of schedule. I decided that during the month of February I am going to take a break from dating. (I must say though that if I get asked out I’m not going to turn a date down. I’m just not going to actively seek out dates zealously like I did in the month of January.)

I have decided that I am going to dedicate February to getting a few more of my 30 things to do before I’m 30 list done. I am only 7 pounds away from weighing what I weighed when I graduated high school and I think I can lose those pounds this month (which means I can buy that dress at Ann Taylor, but might wait until summer season). I also want to get my belay certification at the YMCA so I can begin learning how to rock climb. I have also done a pretty good job on my fingernail biting so I’d like to grow my nails out this month and schedule a manicure towards the end of the month. I’ve found a website with sheet music and guides on it so this month is the month to learn another song on the harmonica as well.

In addition to being busy with my 30 things list this month I am also starting a water aerobics class, running a fundraiser at school, working on district curriculum, re-building the school website, and taking a two credit district class in the evenings. I think that makes this a good month to take a little break from searching for dates… who knows, maybe the dates will start coming to me.

Happy February!
