Hi All,

Well, it’s almost the end of 2008.  Can you believe it?  I sure can’t.  This year seems to have gone so FAST!  So much has happened, some good, some bad, but the thing I’ll remember most I think is the election of the first African-American president.  WOOT!  We truly are a remarkable country, doncha think? 

Now that this year is nearly gone, I’ve been thinking about things I want to resolve to change next year.  Oh yes, there’s that evil word–resolve.  Yeppers boys and girls, New Year’s Resolutions.   I’ve only come up with a few so far but the are do-able ones, ones I know I can accomplish, so I’m not being unrealistic or reaching too far out of the comfort zone.  My resolutions are:

1. Eat healthier and exercise more.  Totally doable… and I’ve got a coach lined up to kick my booty into doing it too.  WOOT!
2. I’m also resolving to finish one book and hopefully another before year’s end.  Very doable if I stick to a schedule… even if life throws me a curveball, I can meet this goal.
3. Talk more with my family.  I haven’t done this enough in the last couple years, so I resolve to see and speak to them more often.
4. Keep plugging away at the self-confidence issue–or lack thereof.  So far I’ve made a lot of progress in the last 2 months and hopefully by year’s end I’ll be much more confident.

That’s all I came up with but they are the most important issues in my life as of right now so they will be my focus for the upcoming year. 

What about you all?  Do you make resolutions?  Or not?  Do you keep them?  Or end up breaking them? 

Happy New Year to you all!  May it bring you joy and happiness.
