Resolutions 2014.

This post took forever to get up. And not for the reasons you'd think - thinking too much on each one, too busy to write, etc etc. I'm basically just lazy. I've been spending a lot of time on my beauty blog, which you can check out here if you haven't already. So if you're looking to check in with me a little more regularly, hop on over there for all things beauty related.

But anyway, this is not what this post is about. 

RESOLUTIONS for 2014

Lose Weight

This is a constant one for most people. It was one for me last year as well, and I think I'm on my way. 

Gluten Free

In 2013 I started a gluten free diet. For the most part I'm cautious of what I eat now but I have cheated and haven't been as careful as I could be. I'm going to make it a goal for 2014 to be very cautious of what I'm eating and where it's from. I think it's easier to watch what I eat when you take any possibility of ordering in or eating out off the table, so to speak. For example, I can't order a burger through a drive through or a take home pizza anymore. It's also encouraging me to cook more at home and eat a little better.

Organic, Fair Trade, Local (Food)

I'm trying to purchase as many organic, fair trade products as I can in the coming year. I'm already doing this, but I could be trying harder (like I said in the GF section). With every organic purchase over processed purchase, I feel better about things.

Cruelty Free, Vegan, Not tested on animals, as natural as possible (Cosmetics, Body care, Hair care, and Nail care)

I am making it a goal to only purchase personal care items that are at the very least cruelty free (meaning against animal testing and the use of animal products in cosmetics). I'm also trying to stick with products that are as natural as possible. For example, most of what I was using a year ago was full of chemicals which are no good for your skin! Now I'm obsessed with vegan, organic skincare which works better than the chemical-filled garbage.

Save Money

Again, another common new year's resolution for a lot of people. There is talk of going away on a trip to England at the tail end of 2014, so I really do need to jump on this resolution as quickly as possible.

Get L license

This joins in with the laziness thing. I am now 22 and don't have my driver's license yet. What a lazy ass I am. One of my big goals for this year is to get on learning. The sooner I learn the sooner I will get places. Literally. 

WISH LIST for 2014

I thought I would include some of the things I'm wishing for this year. These are items, so don't get all fussy on the fact that I have a wish list of things I plan to save up for and/or purchase this year. It's just something I wanted to put up somewhere so I'll remember.

Cat Genie

My boys will be 3 years old in May and I've wanted one of these since I got them. They're expensive, but I like that they are eco-friendly, and scooping won't be necessary anymore! And I can stop buying litter to throw away later. 

Queen (or larger) Bed

Yes, I want to buy a bigger bed. How else can my cats sleep away the day in ultimate comfort?

Queer As Folk Complete Series

Again, something that might sound a little weird to some people. I've been meaning to buy this series since I finished it a couple years ago (I watched all the seasons, almost three times, online). I just haven't done it yet. I think this year I will save up and purchase it for myself.

Alright guys, that's my new year's post for 2014! Who knows how often I'll come back to this blog, but if you want to catch up with me, hop over to my beauty blog (link is in the top of this post). I'm on there a lot more frequently.

Thanks for reading! Ciao!
