New Year's Resolutions...did you make any? I think I'm still working on it. There's just no sense in rushing through it...maybe the longer it takes me to make them, the longer I'll keep them? I don't see "Buy more jewelry" on this list, but I definitely think it should be on mine. Resolving to buy more shoes worked out really well for me. I kept that one. And I'm also tempted to put "Quit Smoking" on mine. Since I don't smoke, that would should be fairly easy to keep as well.

So far, this is the list I'm working with:
1. Buy more jewelry.
2. Quit smoking-DONE.
3. Lose 1 million pounds and run in a marathon. I figure I might as well aim high on this one. The chances are just about as good that I'll keep it. I really am going to work on this. For a while.
4. My "something new" is going to be a book. I'm going to get serious and write, probably about my training for a marathon (which I am not actually going to do because I am not actually crazy but it would make a great book).
5. And just to round out the list, I'm going to pick "Find My Soul Mate." I had no idea it was as easy as resolving to do it. And I have a much better chance of doing that than sticking to a budget or getting organized.

If you made any resolutions, leave me a comment. I'd love to know what you're working on.
