New Year's Resolutions
Posted by Jill | 7:38 PM

Normally I don't make New Year's resolutions. I've always found them just another way to fall short of my own expectations of myself and give me a reason to feel rotten. Nothing ventured, nothing lost, I say. But this year I have some very reasonable and eminently do-able resolutions:

1) Get back to working out daily as soon as my lungs get back to normal from this month-long upper respiratory infection I've had.

2) Clear out all the holiday junk from my arteries and lay off the office chocolate.

3) Paint the ceilings, walls, and trim in the rooms in the house where the new windows were installed.

4) Reface the kitchen cabinets (yes, I already have the supplies).

5) Get some decent curtains; no more K-Mart specials. Besides, they donate to Republicans.

6) Pay off all remaining credit card debt from 2004 home improvements.

7) Stay employed.

8) Try to regain some hope for the future of my country.

Those are mine. What are some of yours?
