I guess that I am too fatalistic to believe that New Years resolutions do any good. At least not for me. They are just one more thing that I need to feel guilty about going into Lent, and as a Catholic, I have plenty to feel guilty about already!! biggrin.gif

Just my tuppence.

I don't do New Year's resolution because it is sort of tradition to break them. I even held off last year to quit smoking on January 2 so as not to have it resemble a New Year's resolution. I am still smoke-free (quit cold turkey) after 25 years!!

Fantastic keep it up.
Onward and upward. clap.gif

I tend not to make New Year's resolutions. Seems to artificial to me. If I need to change, it seems like its better to do so when I realize such, rather than trying to come up with a list at a time of year when there's a lot going on.

Loose my beer gut for the wedding.

Be as happy as I was last year.

Attempt to remain mentaly stable as I continue on with this culture crave. (it's been ripping me apart lately)

Posted by: Annabelle 15-Dec-2003, 10:07 PM
I've decided for New Year I'm going to get the Beer gut and dance at OldRaven's funeral (I meant wedding).

Then I'm going to hunt down Richard alias "the axe murder" and turn him in for big money so I can buy that new jeep. Sounds like a plan, yep!

Hang in there Single Speed on school. It will all be worth it! Really! My daughter just finished graduate school for accounting. Took the CPA exam and passed. She's breathing free again. She's 23 and has all of her school done and has her CPA license. Now she's working 5 days a week and having a good time on the weekends.

So hang in there. When do you finish?

I graduate in August 2004, with an MEd in Instructional Technology. I will be designing on-line curriculum for those folks who wish to get their masters via the Internet. I have to brag a bit. I am carrying a 4.0 for the first 24 credit hours.

I must thank Celtic Radio and it's members. Taking breaks this semester to post my thoughts helped to maintain my sanity. (Of course I did'nt have Annabelle threatening to serve me as part of a pre-holiday feast).

My new year's resolution is usually to not use such foul language (darn, shoot, shucks, fiddle). This year the resolution is going to be to not be quite so graceful and to stay out of the doctors office. thumbs_up.gif martini.gif doctor.gif

If you have a New Years Resolution remember this, It takes about 21 day to start a new habit. so get the first three weeks out of the way and your chances of success rise dramatically.

I stopped drinking soda for a year once, im a soda-holic.Marked off a calender everyday I went through withdrawal but it seemed to go on forever. After that year i started drinking again , i had been mean to everybody , and family and friends were actually Giving me Six Packs. i learned to cut back but somedays its hard. Soda is my vice


Happy New Year and good luck

king.gif And being really good looking is my other vice, but im letting that one stay.

I have decided to make a few resolutions.
1. Gain 30 pounds before the first of march.
2. Tell my boss what I think of him.
3. Seek new carrier opportunities.
4. Get a tattoo.
5. Give up guinness.
That aught to keep me busy for a while.

Posted by: jaynebylak 22-Dec-2003, 10:56 AM
Hummmm....My New Year's Resolutions:

1) Lose 75 pounds by September 2004

2) Find my own place to live

3) Change jobs

4) Get more financially sound

5) Work more on my writing smile.gif

Posted by: Annabelle 23-Dec-2003, 09:49 AM
Janey, I certainly do agree with you. I'd like to stay out of the Dr's office more next year. This has not been the best health year for me.
April - Intestinal Surgery
June-kicked a sawblade and took 6 stitches between the toes
October- fell thru the roof and broke heels and stress fractures.

yea, I'd like to stay out of Dr's offices.

My New Year's resolution is to stop ending my sentences in prepositions.

Posted by: Annabelle 23-Dec-2003, 01:22 PM
If?
Hummmm?

The?

Had to put the thinking cap on for prep's?

Annabelle! You have not had a good year healthwise! My! You poor thing! I was in the doctor's office a lot this year too. Hoping that won't be the case this new year too!
