Word of the Day: Abase (verb) to embarrass or shame someone else; it also means to lower yourself physically or in rank

Quote of the Day: Put your big girl panties on and deal with it.

Simplicity....that should have been my word for the day. Why? Because that’s my motto this year, my New Year’s resolution if you will. SIMPLICITY

I want to simplify my mind, my house, my body, my work space....everything. (Well except my books)

There is no need for 3 sets of dishes in my kitchen cabinets. There is no need for 5 different kinds of shampoo in my shower, but they are there. I want to simplify it.

If I can figure out a way to dispose of the negative thoughts I put on myself maybe I could get on with life and not dwell on what I don’t have and maybe be appreciative for what I do have.

My body has always been a huge (no pun intended) issue in my life. Well I’m up to the biggest I’ve ever been and I’m not going to put up with it. Failure is not an option at this point in my life. It’s either get up and do something about myself or.... Well at this weight it’s either do or die.

My work space....well what can I say, I work well in chaos. But I technically don’t need the 15 writing pads I have hoarded in my desk drawer, or the 2 jumbo packs of colored paper clips, but there they are hiding out in my desk. Trying to take over my life with clutter.

SIMPLICITY....it’s what I’m striving for this year. Along with it will come a healthy mind and body, and cleaner house and office and hopefully an overall better Jessica.

I say bring it on 2012....this will be my year even if it kills me.
