Resolutions.  When you hear New Year, do you think Resolutions?  I used to, but I realized resolutions are usually negative things about myself that I want to change, so I decided this year, there will be no resolutions, but "Plans or Goals" to look forward to doing.  I am trying to be more happy and stay away from those negative thoughts.  I never keep resolutions for more than a few months anyways, but if I set goals, I usually do better!

Here goes the "list"

• Take my dog for more walks (which in turn provides us both with exercise!)
• Quit smoking with my fiance
• Do more crafts instead of being lazy and watching TV all the time (though American Idol will be starting and I love that show!).  maybe I can craft and watch TV!
• To begin planning the wedding, or at least the party!
• Start talking with Josh about the plans for the wedding, party, and the other things (i.e. do we want to keep separate checking accounts? mailboxes? Insurance? etc...)
• Do better at keeping track of finances
• Enjoy life more
• See my college friends (at least as many as I can since we are all kinda spread out and the price of gas doesn't seem to be dropping too much!)
• Keep in touch with family and friends better than I have this year!
• Tons more things, but these are the highlights!

I hope everyone had a wonderful New Year's celebration!  We stayed home and had a mellow evening.  We are such morning/day people that we celebrated with New York (3 hours ahead of us) at 9pm our time, had our bubbly and toasted, and the kiss, then went to bed by 10pm.  We tried, but starting our day at 6am and no naps, then drinking alcoholic beverages beginning at 4pm, we just couldn't hang!  Haa haa...we must be getting old! LOL! 

I best be going so I can get some things taken care of around the house!  Hope the New Year brings all of you many wonderful blessings and happy times!
