I posted a post listing my 2009 resolutions and here is an update on how things are coming as of March 31:
1) For Matt and I to travel somewhere via airplane.
I am still working on this resolution again, but we have had conversations of where we plan to go on our honeymoon, which might be the next place we travel far away. Right now we've had ideas of Hawaii, Alaska, Maine, Canada, or somewhere warm. We are planning a trip to Green Bay, Wis. to visit my cousin and his new baby Liam. Plus I'd like to go to Nebraska City this fall to see the beautiful leaves and apple orchard.
2) To really get healthy.
This one has become a bit of a habit. Every day I eat a banana plus an apple or orange, soy yogurt and milk on top of breakfast, lunch, dinner. I also go to exercise class three nights a week (when I can) and take the dog for walks almost every day. Plus I am still doing my workout DVD although less frequently, because I love being outdoors.
3) To not shop as often.
This one is becoming a habit although I did buy a new outfit for our engagement photos! And, I really have no nice spring clothes for work, so I will be "watching" the sales. (And I got my wedding dress and shoes, but those can be called necessities.)
4) To eat more meals at home.
This one is pretty easy. We eat almost every night at home and for lunch there are always leftovers. Eating out just lost its charm, so now I want to make it a special treat.
5) To really clean out the house and basement and hold a garage sale in May.
Last weekend I went on a crazy cleaning/organizing streak. I organized the hall closet and put our extra DVDs and CDs in it which emptied 4 boxes we had sitting in the dormer. However, since I joined Junior League I am donating my thrift instead of having a garage sale. After all, for the $25 you make on a garage sale it takes weeks to get ready.
That's all the updates for now. I hope to continue to be healthy, eat at home and organize our stuff.

I'm proud of you. Your "habits" could be considered a lifestyle change. Yay!
