2009 New Years Resolutions: In No Particular Order
Blog at least once a week
Lose 52 pounds
Cook at home more often (this may need refining to number of days per week)
Go organic as much as possible
Live Greener (recycle more, use less, use cloth instead of paper)
Garden and compost (I have a big stack of pots and a courtyard, for container gardens)
Learn to sew/knit better
Reduce debt by at least 50%
Save at least 2000 dollars
Play outside more often
Turn off TV/Computer/Video Game at least one night a week
Start Learning French (this one I’ve already started)
Finish writing a story (short or long) and submit to a publisher
Clean and declutter and keep it that way
Ride bike to somewhere (even around the block) at least once a week
Get more involved in local community (volunteer, go to events, talk to other bloggers)
Try a new local restaurant twice a month
Make new friends
Run a mile and a half in 15 minutes or less
Join the Airforce
Buy fewer consumer goods (rent movies, borrow books, less toys, thrift store clothes)
Wear more hats (I need a really good fedora)
Get a wedding band tattoo (We both seem to be allergic to the metals in our rings)
Play my clarinet more (or ever)
Read to Water Boy every night (this one has been great fun so far!)
Get Maya-kitty spayed
Visit local attractions more often (museums, galleries, parks, community centers)
Go to the gym at least three times a week, and the track at least once
Pack both Stillmog’s and my lunch every day
Write letters to my friends (not so green, maybe I’ll reuse paper from around our house)
Make a Household Planner (I saw this on a site and loved the idea)
Make no late payments! (This one will be very very difficult, we are terrible about this)
Start tracking my calories (I’ve been trying to use Sparkpeople, but I’m not very good)
Go out on dates with my spouse creature, Stillmog, at least twice a month
Start a family game night (to include any family member or friend who wants to come)
Reconcile with my uncle and my cousin
Spend more time with my dad and youngest brother (or any)
Talk to my grandparents more often (than once a year)
Take more pictures of Water Boy and post them to my flickr, myspace page, and here
Re-vamp my fish tank (it’s looking a little dark and gloomy)
Start trying to get my e-business, Wings&Things;, off the ground (crafting business!)
Possibly conceive baby number two (this is debatable, as I would want to stay home with them)
Get some house plants (we need more green inside)
Do…Something…with my hair
Have I missed any thing???
