About this Project

Update: February 26, 2011

Almost two months have passed since I started my Project 2011. It started at as this great project for me to accomplish all these goals this year. After two months, it's turning out to be more like me resolving to overcome my vices by tackling one each month.

In January it was to watch less TV. In February it has been to save money and spend less. In March all bets are off because I will be traveling the entire month and who knows what's going to happen.

I decided I need to modify the focus of this blog and this project 2011. The past two months have shown my progress (or lack thereof) in trying to change some lifestyle habits. I kinda like the idea that I'm making myself accountable for these things. It makes me more aware of what I'm doing in my life and what I really need to change.

When I first started this project, there were several things in my life I really needed to change; and those are the first three items on my list of projects for 2011. Also number 10 was getting to be an issue, which we've already discussed. However, although I am no longer watching my Friends DVD's I have moved on to my Will and Grace DVD's which is a little bit like cheating. The point of me not watching Friends anymore was to help with watching less TV in general... sigh.

Rounding out the top four things on which Michele needs to improve is "Exercise."
This is something I just can not get motivated to do! I used to be a member of LA Fitness way back in the day. I would go every single day and work out for about 2 hours! I was in such good shape! Last year, after about four years of nothing, I started walking and using a shake-weight. Not quite two hours a day, maybe 30 minutes if any. I slacked off after only a four months when I got mono and basically couldn't do any physical exercise of any kind for six weeks. Now, I'm back to my lazy-self and barely exercise twice a month. I vow to make April my exercise month. I might have to splurge and join a gym, we shall see...
