Failure already

As previously posted, I said that one of my goals was to post something every day.  Well, that obviously didn’t work – but I’m back on the horse!

Being the blonde that I am, I completely forgot my login information and the web hosting company that I had decided upon.  I was going to another site with a very similar name.  I could have struck myself in the head repeatedly when I realized the mistake!

But to keep you all informed, I have begun my weight loss journey!  Albeit, I have not yet done anything physical.  ::Frown:: 

On Monday afternoon, I swung by my local YMCA to get the Fall schedule of classes.  On Wednesday, I put my gym bag into my car, sans shoes and shorts.  On Thursday, I got my shoes and shorts into the bag in the car.  So, now all I need to do is get my butt over to the Y and DO SOMETHING!

Not so hard, right?

This weekend will be my re-start.  I will blog and do some of the research I need to complete for the voiceovers and the online sales stuff.  I’ll have to place some new listings on eBay – just to keep in the loop.  See if I get any bites… 

Sundays are Football Days Here

Okay, so I missed my Saturday posting date.  I’m still playing around with this whole thing!  I did promise to give out some of my other goals for the year, and that – I plan on doing!

First, I want to lose weight (who doesn’t).  I am currently about 190 (a little less, but I’m rounding up – hehe..  no pun intended).  I would like to lose 40 pounds.

Second, I want to get a couple more freelance jobs on the various sites I have been using lately (ScriptLance, eLance, GetAFreelancer, Voices.com, etc.)  I love doing voiceover work when I can get it, but things have been slow lately.  =(

Third, I want to set up an ecommerce site – something where I can sell odds and ends without having to go through eBay.  So far, I have found one place that is pretty reasonable, but needs further research.

Fourth, which I have already broken but plan to fix, I want to blog something – ANYTHING – every day from now on.  So I apologize in advance about the one and two line blog entries I end up writing on crappy days.

Fifth, I have been engaged since April and I would like to get married some time over the next year.  Be it in Vegas, at a small chapel around Daytona, at City Hall or by a Notary.  I really don’t care – as long as the party is great!

And finally, I would like to get a new laptop and/or PC.  I like the set up I have, but could use the money earned from Goals two and three to get on the ball!

I am sure that there are more goals that I would like to set for myself, and they will be added as they come up, but for now, these six will suffice.

So, at this time I choose to say thanks for stopping by and will return to my incessant Facebook/Twitter checks and watch some football.  Thankfully, the Patriots won today, so I am happy – but my Fantasy team is losing and right now, that’s pretty important!

GO ARIZONA!!!!

Welcome to My Blog! First Post of Many, I hope!

Good evening all!  My name is Daria, and on my 32nd Birthday (yesterday) I came up with the idea to blog about my goals, and my progression, over the next year.

My first goal has been met – to find my personal blog and set it up in some odd way, shape and/or form.  TA DA!!!  I am sure it will go through some changes, be linked ot other blogs and possibly be moved to another site down the line.  But for now, I want to engage you, the reader, and let you know how my life is going.

Tomorrow, I plan on letting you all knwo what goals I want to achieve, how I may go about doing that, and just letting you know more about me.

So, until then, welcome to my blog, and thank you for reading!  I really appreciate it!!

EDIT: I will do my best to post a blog a day – it’s one of my goals, but you will see that!   =)
