Being Kendra: Cribs, Cocktails, and Getting My Sexy Back

I just finished this book up last night.  Yes, I know, it is Kendra Wilkinson so it isn't exactly a huge piece of great literature but if you like to keep on top of celebrity gossip like I do, this appeals to you.  I don’t exactly call this what would be a typical biography like her first book was.  This is more like they picked a few topics to make into chapters and she told stories that have happened in the last 2 years that go along with that topic.

All in all, it was interesting to see how different people think when it comes to things like raising children and being married.  I still though, wouldn’t run out to purchase this book, I would just check if out from the library like I did No money spent.

New Years…

I have been thinking about what I want to do for my resolutions this year.  Where it may seem like it is the same as everyone uses, I hope to accomplish them…

1.  Health – I am tired of being a fat girl.  I was doing so well this past summer until I let drama filled adults get in the way.  I want to get back to the gym.  It will be hard because I am going to have to have my exercise time focused in the evenings, most likely right after dinner.  I don’t want to be big anymore and I miss having all the energy that it gave me.

2.  Financial – I just finished pulling our credit reports today.  In the next few days, I am going to go through and see if there are any things that need to be fixed.  Right now, I am going to focus on anything that isn't student loan related.  With this, I am going to implement some serious restrictions on spending.  We will not be eating out unless it is a special occasion.  Items will not be purchased until a necessity.  I want to see how much we can not spend.

As the year goes on, I am going to look into different ways to save money.  An example would be that I know the contract that we signed with Comcast is up in July, at that time, we will be making changes, possibly going to internet only.

3.  Job – I will be graduating with my Master’s in March.  there is no reason that I should not be able to find a job this year.  I’ve been looking at some other items to help advance my career and boost my resume.  I am thinking of taking a class to get certified in Project Management.  Once I pass that, I will possibly work to get some computer certifications along with other business ones.

4.  Blog – I want to work on keeping up on this blog and making sure it stays more updated.  This past summer, I had added Evan and Ryan as authors some I am going to encourage them to start posting items also.  I’m sure I can get Ryan but not too sure about Evan.  We will see…

5.  Decluttering – I have a lot of stuff in this house although with the help of the virtual yard sale, I have been able to get rid of some of it.  I still have A LOT to go through.  I have already made two large trips to the thrift store too.  I also got a great idea on Pinterest where you turn all your hangers around in your closet on January 1st.  Then when it gets to June 1st and you haven't used the item of clothing, it gets sold or donated.  So far I have turned around all the kids clothes.  Going to work on doing the adults this weekend
