21

<p>*Stretch every morning, exercise every day… actively walk 20 a day
*Put more music in my life
*Spend less money on my kids
*Give my DH more attention
*Stop procrastinating: if something is on my list 2 days in a row, get it done!
*Only 3 games a day (solitaire or Free Cell) allowed</p>

22

<p>Pay off two credit cards so I can switch to working part-time by year’s end when I begin receiving social security.</p>

<p>Finish an article or two for a group project and try to get another article published.</p>

23

<p>I will not fight with my daughter about the planning for her wedding.</p>

24

<p>I am going to finally read Lord of the Rings. Maybe . . . :)</p>

25

<p>I will learn to play bridge with my husband.</p>

26

<p>Quit wasting an hour every night on CC.<br>
OK, nevermind.</p>

27

<p>To hold fast to The Rolling Stones, and to remember: You can’t always get what you want, but if you try, sometimes you get what you need.</p>

28

<p>Keep making healthy choices.
Support DH with health issues but not play the bad cop in doing so.
Quit my toxic job and find something more meaningful (paid or not).
Spend more time with my parents and sibs.</p>

29

<p>I resolve to make a good resolution… soon.</p>

30

<p>More fish oil.</p>

31

<p>I resolve to:

  • Complain less, compliment more.
  • Watch and return my Netflix DVDs more quickly.</p>
32

<p>I resolve to:

  1. Listen much more
  2. Try to change rather than give up (in all areas of my life)
  3. Eat a healthy non-processed food diet
  4. Exercise daily
  5. Take chances in new activities and in meeting new people
  6. Replace bad habits with good ones
  7. Have faith, trust and confidence in myself</p>

<p>Cheers for 2012, & Good luck everyone!
p.s. I love all your resolutions, and hope to re-visit this thread often in the coming year.</p>

33

<p>Grow more food
Ask more open ended questions
Ride my bike
Learn something new
Have fun</p>

34

<p>“Ask more open ended questions”</p>

<p>Like what?</p>

35

<p>I’m kind of on this kick where I’m deliberately disorganized and sort of loosey-goosey about things. I need to stop that. It’s starting to have consequences.</p>

36

<p>Cultivate new friendships. Seems to take more time than I seem to have sometimes. Gotta MAKE time!</p>

37

<p>smile more</p>

38

<p>Have no expectations therefore I will not be disappointed nor have unnecessary stress.</p>

39

<p>I would like to learn to do a handstand. I have been going to yoga for I think 4 years, and I think I am close, but I think it would take going to a yoga class more often than once or twice a week. </p>

<p>I also really need to stop procrastinating at work.</p>

40

<p>Find joy in each day.</p>
