Hey friends, it’s New Year’s Eve. Are you partying? We just did our predictions for each other where everyone in the family makes a prediction for everyone else. Example: “I predict Ellen will lose her pacifier this year.” That sort of thing. Then we write down our “goals.” Everyone has a goal about 1)What they want to make 2)Where they want to go 3) What they want to learn 4) What they want to change and 5)What they want to start doing. Example: Ben wants to “make a toilet” every year. Then it all deteriorates into screaming, jumping, pooping, and general mayhem and we all go our separate ways until midnight.
Here are some of my personal resolutions for 2010:
Blog more.
Reduce hangnails.
Have house smell like oranges.
Have body smell like sexiness.
Read more books than Christian even though he has a Nook now and is supposedly really into reading.
Be gracious.
Never wear stained clothing.
Look cute in a photo.
Read scriptures daily. CHECK OUT THIS SITE IT IS AN AWESOME WAY TO READ SCRIPTURES: Readthescriptures.com
Stop eating when I am full or maybe just a little after.
Stop reading blogs that make me hate people.
Listen to my kids.
Look at my kids.
Train my dog.
Pay attention in Sunday School.
Act like a grown woman.
Not be mad in the morning.
Be generous.
Stop begrudging.
Start breeding dogs. Kidding!
Stop fantasizing about breeding dogs.
Stop fantasizing about witnessing a crime and start living life in the moment.
Stop getting migraines.
Start writing good blogs.
Good luck to you with all your resolutions but remember–Fall is the real New Year. So take it easy. And if you see me, don’t ask how I’m doing on my resolutions. It will only embarrass and demoralize me.
Note to self: Stop feeling embarrassed and demoralized. HAPPY NEW YEAR.
Oh well.
