It's time for another monthly new year's resolution update. And I'm slacking. May's resolution was to send cards, or letters, via snail mail to friends and family. And while on literally the last day of the month I did think about it twice, I totally failed. I did not send one.
I will take this opportunity to blame the election. But really the idea is to make it a habit despite all the distractions to not do it. One thing to focus on and I couldn't do it.
I'll be ok though. I will eventually go buy a few cards and make it happen. It may not be a habit, but the drinking water and working out (and obviously the attention to this blog) is still going well.
I'd say for the year, accomplishing the monthly resolution and making it a little bit more of a habit, I'm sitting at about .500.
Next up is attending church 3 times in a calendar month. Now this one will be interesting for a few reasons. 1. I have found a new church in Houston that I like, so it will be nice to attend a little more regularly (not that I need an excuse to do so, but it will be nice to get into that routine of going). 2. Because of my schedule I don't think it will be the three consecutive Sundays we have left in this month, so that means I'll be hitting up a weekday Mass. All things considered I should be able to handle this one easily because obviously it should trump most distractions. It will be the making it a habit that takes a little bit more work. I'm focused.
Happy New Year (Resolutions)!
UPDATE: I actually typed this up early in the weekend and today I did not attend Mass. Thus now I will definitely go to the weekday Mass at some point, and I will have to a few times to be successful.
Additionally, I bought FIVE cards to mail out to address last month's resolution, so I'm catching up!
