Winter of Fun!

This SUMMER was one of the funnest I've had in a long time, and I think that was mostly due to me setting a few fun activities for myself. Sometimes a season passes us by and we realized what we missed out on.
So now, I'm aiming to have a WINTER OF FUN, despite snowstorms, shoveling, cold & flus and -30 degrees! Ok so... it might not compare to my summer of fun, but I can try!

So here are a few ideas for me to start; lmk if you have any ideas I should add!

1. Attempt skiing ... again (the last time i tried this i ended up with one ski, one pole and in the trees!) 
2. Enjoy more than one hot chocolates with friends
3. Because of Xmas spending; set a budget and stick to it!
4. Go tobogganing
5. Keep my apartment festive during the winter months
6. Try snowshoeing
7. Make snow angels with my godson :)
8. Bake all kinds of goodies!
9. Test drive a new car I'm interested in
10. Have a girls weekend with Val in T.O
11. Enjoy Old Port winter festivities
12. Investigate some neighborhoods I might want to move to this summer!
13. Stay at a cabin on a snowy mountain where I might see dear walking by the window! (hey a girl can dream!) 

I'll keep you posted on my progress!

The Olympics Has Inspired us all... What Will We Do Now?

Maybe i'll take up snowboarding ;) check out this guy all alone on the slope... Totally awesome!

let it snow let it snow let it snow!

Maybe last night's mini-snow-storm will brighten the spirits of some of us Montrealers who are suffering from the winter blues... or maybe it'll just cause more traffic on Decarie.

Roxy's New Year's Resolution

From ROXY

Hmmm i've been thinking about this one for a few weeks now...
What do i REALLY want to focus on in this New Year? ...finding my Mr.Right... workout to get my body healthier... less stress... eat better... spend less... pay off debts... save for all those wonderful things i want and places i want to go... spend more time with the ones i love... drink less (and don't make a fool of myself at Office Xmas Parties!!!)...

So... when it comes down to it, i just want to improve on ME. Improve myself in many facets of life. There's not ONE thing i need or want more than all the others.

So, can my New Year's Resolution simple be : BE A BETTER ME.?

I think i'll have less chance of failing that way too. Some things are bound to work, and some things will take more time (like the whole no drinking thing...i mean, who are we kidding here?).

I think overall this past year was SO much fun! I did alot alot of things, and i've been busy almost every second of the year. Literally. You can ask my colleagues! I mean, after all, i was getting over a breakup for part of the year. Everyone's allowed some fun, right? But, with dwindling amounts in my bank account, i think the responsible Roxy needs to come out to play for a little while. So, maybe instead of going out for drinks with my bestest, i should stay at home and make her a martini instead. You meet a lot less guys that way... but cmon' it's -28 degrees outside anyway. How many guys are going to find you attractive with an Eskimo jacket and woolly toque on anyway?? The guy i'm seeing (who you all know as : Tiger) thinks i look like a Rastafarian with one of my winter toques on... that can't be good! but, i don't care, it's cold!

So, all this to say that i think i need to take a little time to chill and be a better me this year. Less frivolous spending, more quality time with family and friends, healthier eating, and yes, i'll try to cut-down on the drinking! I think that's the best New Year's Resolution i can make for myself :)

On that note: HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!
Be responsible at all your parties tonight, i know i will ;)
Let 2010 be your year of love, sex and magic!! hehe
