    Slick, I so hope you'll be able to reduce the stress. I know it's difficult at work, but your health is more important!

    I WILL follow up on this in February!

    Funny, I had this one: "be more patient with my Mom" on my list years ago, too - and I managed to do it!

    One I'll try to do is, stop interrupting you when you're talking.

I've changed my mind 50 times, but this was my original one and someone discouraged me from it because "I wouldn't make alot of money without having a PhD" well, I'm willing to get the PhD for something I love - Marine Biology. That's the last time I let someone change my mind.
    Do what you love and the money will follow. IMO, there's nothing worse than abandoning a dream/goal just for the sake of money. You can have both.

    Thanks for the encouragement guys! I slept over a friends house last night and she said the same thing, she wanted to do Marine Bio and she "researched" salaries online and found they don't make anything. I just can't bring myself to believe that, especially since she found this info online. I LOVED Marine Bio since I was, maybe, 4 or 5, and my dad tried to major in it because he loved it. But he didn't and now he regrets it immensely. I'm going to follow my dream, I really am. I don't care what other people say.

    I didn't see your thread on serious resolutions until after I posted mine on silly ones.

    Ok, so I do have some serious resolutions
    ~ Get back to eating right and working out (walking Callie) with regularity
    ~ Eat at home (we MIGHT have a kitchen some day soon)

    Few more:

    - Be more patient towards others and with myself
    - Work on my "getting mad too fast" and get better (again, I would think that relates to being patient with myself..)
    - Manage my money more wisely, save up a good amount...
    You're the one sure thing I've found so you better stick around...
