Fell off the wagon! - err Day 1 (again)

So Christmas kind of threw me for a loop and I fell off the wagon big time, getting ready for company. Then boxing day hit and I worked out hard for  2 whole days... Then the dreaded flu hit, then the stomach flu and then a chest cold... 


but enough complaining already! 


Somehow between sicknesses I ran a 5k race, a resolution run on the 31st. Even though I felt like crap, I was still able to pump out a 29:30, which is 2 mins faster then the one I did 2 or 3 weeks earlier.


One thing I managed to do was create of list of things I want to do everyday for 2012. Not really resolutions just a list I should look at every day and practice.


Here it is:


1. Take my vitamins (including Vit D)
2. Put away a little bit of money, anything higher than a quarter (to save for a vacay)
3. Do something nice for someone or pay a compliment
4. Do pushups and situps (and stretch)
5. Remember calm is always better than yelling (in regards to my kids!)
6. Tell your family you LOVE them
7. Spend quality tim with each child doing homework and or reading
8. Workout - Train and don't forget to STRETCH!!!
9. Drink 5-8 glasses of water
10. Limit myself to one Diet Coke a day (my small vice) and drink 1 or 2 green teas
10.5. Walk your dog! He loves you


So all the things I wanted in the list didn't fit in 10, so I have 10.5, but I have been able to do most of these things except for the push ups and sit-ups and the dog walking (TODAY!)


What do you want to make a habit and do everyday? Or did you set a resolution or 3?


As for Triathlon training, yesterday I started again with Day 1 and I biked 50 mins! 
Today, well I am not sure, and I also need to get a pool membership to get swimming... Til tomorrow my friends!
