    New Year's Resolution?
    Hi everyone, This is a two part question. Since we are approaching a New Year, just curious to see if:

    1) Are you planning on making a New Year's Resolution for 2007? If yes, care to share what it is?

    2) Have you made past New Year's resolutions, that you actually were successful in keeping?

    Okie dokie, well I have a New Year's Resolution... ya want to hear it..?

    Allheart will not be asking this question next year. That's for sure. LOL :p

    Yikes! Is anyone home? So lonely on this island of No Responses :(

    That's okay, I understand. Honest.

    Happy Holidays to everyone... and Happy New Year :D

    Hi Allheart!

    I'm here!!

    My New Year's resolution is to be more attentive about peoples feelings by not talking about them and minding my own business. I live in a small town and small towns are always full of drama! So... I have 10 more days to be a "gabberbox"! (Lol... just kidding)

    And to question #2... no, I have never kept a New Year's resolution. But I will this year!

    P.S. Allheart... what is yours?

    Single,

    Thank you so much and welcome to my island.. . LOL

    Mine? Oh my, guess that is why I asked. I have so many things I need to work on and I didn't know which to pick. I think If I narrow it down to 25, there's a possibility I MAY keep one.

    I think the most important one though, would be to "cleanse" myself inside. Get rid of
    The not so good feelings, so I can make room inside for other's troubles. In connection to that, just getting back to who I really am, and pay more attention to hubby and his troubles. The heavy load that he carries. I used to be so good about helping him carry the load, and somehow I feel I am letting my side slip. So I guess that would be my number 1 thing to work on. Just forget my little aches and pains inside, which I think then that would free me up, to once again, help carry the load. Yeh, I think that's going to be it for me. I think, currently, I am just going through the motions, and not doing it with the same energy and desire that I used to. Somehow I got tired. Thanks so much for helping me work through it.

    Sorry you asked huh :). But many thanks for asking. Good luck with yours as well :):).

    I wholeheaterdly agree. I do tend to get serious about certain things. For example the quality of help given here. But I'm actually a pretty humorous guy.

    That's a really good one Mr. Yet. And one that will help so many. I will join you in those prayers. Really is a good one.

    Oh, Scott, that is a stupid resolution! I think New Years Resolutions are just plain stupid anyway!!

    JUST KIDDING!! :D

    I usually don't make them, I eat healthy, exercise, treat people the way I want to be treated and yadda yadda yadda.

    But this year I think will be different. I am going to concentrate harder on my studies to bring my B up to an A.

    I think.:p

    I know I tend to be serious about certain things, but when people are surprised by my having a sense of humor, I am non plussed. Just shows they don't know me very well. :D

    Also, for some reason, people with severe schizophrenia have certain obsessions with clowns. That is one way that schizophrenia is diagnosed.

    My New Year's resolution is to spend less time behind this computer or lost deep in the woods. I got a Christmas card the other day from a good friend of mine, saying that I'm either really successful and haven't had time to write OR I've dropped off the face of the earth! :) Well, at least you people and the local deer population generally know where to find me. :rolleyes: :D

    Hi Allheart,

    My New Years Resolution is to get as fit as possible next year becaue I want to run the London Marathon. I did it back in 2002 for charity but I am not as fit as I was then, so I intend on really pushing myself to the limit next year and registering for the 2008 London Marathon. I have not chosen a charity yet...

    I also intend to make it my new years resolution to be happy and to move on completely from my recent break-up with the ex and just to be happy and content with everything else in my life that all too often we take for granted..

    I usually keep my new years resolutions. The only one I have broken was when on 2 christmas' I made it my new years resolution to give up drinking alcohol on a social basis altogether. Quite an unrealistic one really, and not sure why I chose that one.. LOL That was years ago though when I was younger and liked my drink more.. I'm much more level headed these days.

    Hope this answers the questions...

    Keep my desk and papers better organized so important stuff doesn't get buried.

    And just when it's becoming chic and hip to be cluttered:

    I'm always a little behind the times.
