    Be less wishy-washy and more decisive.
    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).
    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!

    Just lose weight.. I started in November and lost 10 pounds really quickly, but found it hard to resist family Christmas dinners so I decided to hold off until the new years to get back into it.

    I was planning on quitting smoking too but some things have come up recently.. now I really have no desire to. Maybe sometime in the new year.

    I usually do not make New Years Resolutions, but I think this year I might. And it will be to work with the dogs more on training. Zoee needs a lot of one-on-one for her issues. And I want to eventually get Taggart into a therapy dog program.
    Sophie (Giselle) has set me on the right foot with Zoee now I just need to keep it up. And Taggart is still in his training course at ARF. I might enroll him in another too when this one ends.
    OH, and I'm starting school on January 5th. Whoa, I'm going to be busy.
    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 resolve to be more tolerant/patient with my Mother.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    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!

    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!
