Resolutions...

Cheers to a new year and another chance for us to get it right.

Well, it's that time again. Time for resolutions, if you make them. I know many people who don't make them but I usually do. So here's this year's list:

• Lose weight (very vague but I would be happy with 10 lbs & prefer 30). My daughter will be 7 so it's time for the 'baby' weight to go...


• Get more orgainized. Visibly organized. I know where it all is (well, most of it) but I don't think you could find it if I asked you to get it - mostly this is the case in my office. The rest of the house isn't too bad (excluding Little Miss' playroom). Again, a vague resolution but it's a big job that I need to break down into chunks. I think 'purge' is the name of the game here.


• Say 'no' more. Pretty easy, don't you think? And not vague - just say no. I should have no problem keeping this one. I hope.


• Remove the word 'busy' from my vocabulary. Really, aren't we all busy? If we are lucky to have people in our lives we care about, jobs, a home, a car, etc. we are all busy. And if we are lucky enough to be able to take care of these things, we are busy. It's a good thing.

I think that about covers it. If I can keep those I will be in good shape. If not, there's always next year...
