New Year's Resolutions - Recap

As with the end of each year, I always try to reflect on the year as a whole, recap the things that happened, set goals for the next year, and think back on the goals for the previous year.  As with any year, it had it's ups and downs.

2011 Recap:

Multiple moves. 
(I moved my essential stuff from Dallas to Fort Worth, then moved Marcus' essential stuff from Dallas to Fort Worth, moved all of our furniture into TWO storage buildings (one in Dallas, one in Fort Worth), moved the stuff out of storage into our house, spent the last three weeks gathering all the rest of our crap to move into the house.  I'm pretty much done with moving for awhile.)

One new job.

One new house.

One year ago, on December 31st, 2010, I drank my last Dr Pepper.  I've successfully made it almost a year without touching another "regular" soft drink.  For the first 4 - 5 months, I didn't drink any soft drinks, but I've slowly let them creep back into my life.

12 5Ks.  I started out with one a month, and did very well with that until November and December.  A move, finals, etc. didn't allow me to do one a month, but I ran several in certain months, so I'm counting it as a goal ACHIEVED!

75 books read.  Well, not quite, but almost.  I should reach this goal.  I have three more to go!  Well, really like 1.5 to go.  :o)
