    I am going to try to take care of my teeth better. Strange resolution, I know. I always flossed before bed. But lately, I've been very lazy. So I am going to floss my teeth every night.
    I love Fenway, JoJo, Olivia and Nonnie!

    I've never made any hard core ones in the past. Just little promises to myself to try and save money and work out more. I typically fail at both but I'll try harder this year.

    So I resolve to:

    1. Payoff my debts
    2. Learn an instrument (either piano or guitar) but I'm not sure if I have the patience for it.
    3. Focus more on my work.

    I usually try not to make any New Years resolutions but I do need to try to save money and pay off debts. Much easier said than done.

    I would like to be the best parent I can be to our new baby.
    Lose the "baby weight" after she is born (if only it was all from the baby!).
    Finish my master's thesis next semester.
    Learn to manage my stress more effectively.

    I guess it will be quite a busy year!

    Learn a new skill (hopefully knitting - there is a class for adults through the local high school but it fills up really fast each semester).
    Can I add a couple more?

    Lose weight - I make this resolution every year and never succeed.
    Take a vacation (maybe - this is very money-dependent). Or maybe do things in Chicago - go to one of the museums that I have not been to for a long time, visit a new neighborhood, that sort of thing.
    Praying for peace in the Middle East, Ukraine, and around the world.

    I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
    Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!

    Sorry, I didn't come back here. Well, with the holidays and stuff I have not worked with her again. I'm so bad at this and that's why I've made it a resolution. It will be easier for me when the weather is better. But I plan on working with them tomorrow and over the weekend. I will definitely keep you updated on the progress.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    I am quitting smoking, and also going to eat better and lose some weight.

    I want to start answering questions directly and stop going way off on a tangent every time. My stories have people rolling their eyes more than I can say. I remind myself of Rose on Golden Girls and her St. Olaf stories.

    Lose weight.

    Get healthy healthy healthy!!

    Visit my family more.


    I've been Boo'd...
    Thanks Barry!

    This year I want to try to stay away from the clutches of the medical profession! NO hospital stays for me this year.
