Happy New Year. Holidays bug me because they make everyone ask the same questions. How was your holiday? What did you do? And the reaction is the same from everyone when you answer with “okay” and “nothing”. I have hermit problems.
I’ve got resolutions this year! Kind of. My list is a mix of long term “to do’s” and projects. Usually I avoid this kind of thing, but 2009 was stagnant. I had no expectations and ended up with no accomplishments of note, no change.
- 52 crafts (one a week, even if it is small and easy or cheezy).
- Lose weight (187 today. Unacceptable. Shooting for something in the “normal” range).
- Stop sleeping away my days off. Get out of the house.
- Pay off credit cards. That will leave one debt account. I’m ok with that.
- Liquidate possesions. No more clutter.
- Spend less time online. I love you internets, but my ass will not de-fatten itself.
- Learn Spanish, or at least as much as kids in school learn.
- Be ready to be on my own in 2011.
- Be happy.

A lot of them are projects people of the internet do, I know it. I have other resolutions, but they aren’t absolutes, just changes to make in my life so it will suck less. Do the little things before they become big things. This is the first time in a long time that I’ve been truly optimistic.
