New Year's Resolutions

[AllieSutherland]

OK -- I HAVE to ask... what are our New Year's Resolutions for 2003?

Mine are:

1.) Keep up the good work on my "becoming healthier" (weight loss and exercise) regimen.

2.) Become more involved with my volunteer activities

3.) Be a "bit" more organized... and live a little less in the Procrasti-Nation. ;)

4.) Love more, stress less. :)

My ressie for this year are leftover from last year!!!

1. lose some weight! (I am down 10 without doing anything special). I hope to lose another 20 before faire season starts (4 months)

2. get on a budget and pay off some credit card debt.

3. learn to make some of my own garb (well this is new this year...)

4. try not to let ignorant people get to me so much (there is a world of difference between stupid and ignorant; ignorance is a choice!


That's about it.... better not push it too far.... baby steps to start with.

1. I was laid off just before Christmas, so Item 1 has to be find a new income source.
2. After doing five long years as a tech support analyst, find some other way to do Item 1.
3. Get back into my routine of being better to my body - eating better, working out on a semblance of a regular basis.
4. Keep in closer contact with people I love. I am sometimes terrible about keeping in touch with people.
5. Channel Martha Stewart. I can deal without all of her craft ideas and her advice in the stock market, but the woman knows how to get organized.
6. Get packed and moved ASAP.
7. Hot tub. My husband promised as soon as Item 6 happens!
8. Do a better job being at being madame for the wenches of Local 24.
9. Stop procrastinating.

With all of these major resolutions, I figure I have a chance of following through on at least one. I can live with just one.

[Tink]

1) Save money and start contributing to the work 401k plan.

2) Stick with my excercising. Pretty steady since March 2002, so yay me!

3) When it comes to men...take it slow. Know what I'm dealing with BEFORE I jump in.

4) Get my damn website up!!

[emalia]

1. be better to my body.
2. Don't gain any more weight
3. Pay off some CC debt. LONG overdue
4. Return my library books
5. Be a better madame.
6. Get ready to go back to school!! (Rectify the Student loans, gather information, decide what I want to do when I grow up.)

[Tempest_Gypsy]

Mine are hard to describe. Just be a better person, to myself and others. I'm starting off the new year with a juice fast for a week to get all the crud out of my system (and jumpstart losing weight) and I'll just go from there. I really am going to do better this year *probably lying*

[DragonShelle]

1. Lose weight
2.get all my sewing done
3.try to remember the other things I want to do.........


Hugs,

[Lady Gaea]

2.) Go more than two days without crying.
3.) Go more than three days without crying.
4.) Continue same.
5.) Remember who I am.
6.) Find some iota of self esteem.
7.) Hope, dream, and wish about the future.
8.) See the forest for the trees.
9.) Enter every exhibition of pottery I can manage to, and maybe get some of my things into some galleries.
10.) Contine to hope, dream, and wish about the future.

aw honey! I'm sorry it's so awful!

I may have missed something...what happened?????

Keep your chin up, and your spirits.

As for my NY Resolutions, it's simple.

Be less of an asshole to myself and others.

I want to be a nice person. Really. I do. I think getting my life back on track...getting back into school...is going to help a lot. I always feel nicer when I'm being productive.

In the process of separating from my husband after 7 years, finally realizing that I don't deserve the mental abuse, and he's a good friend, but a rotten husband. :( And some other stuff, but it's a little *too* personal to post.

It's not really all that awful. Just very difficult. But thank you so very much for your kind words!! *HUG*

For the last 8 years my resolution has remained exactley the same.....

My new years resolution is to not make a New Years resolution next year.

Sure there are things I want to accomplish, hope to accomplish in this New Year, but to feel like I HAVE to accomplish them....no thanks! I want them to be desires, dreams, wishes and goals...not requirements...LOL!!

[Beatriz]

1. Not to stress myself out over things--accept the things I can change and work towards doing what I need to do to make those changes. Recognize that there are some things I can't change--so stop worrying about them.

2. Do something each day to make someone feel special, loved, admired--including me!

3. Write more letters. By hand. Mail them.

4. Get my journal, scrapbook and camera out more often and record all the events, great and small and then take time to enjoy them again.
