Any New Year's Resolutions?

Did you make any new year's resolutions? I sometimes do - nothing major - like lose 10 million pounds or bring about world peace. I did have to laugh, though. We (meaning me and our two shih tzu dogs - Bobby was sound asleep) were watching the Dick Clark New Year's Eve show. Ryan Seacrest was talking to some girl singer - I have no clue who she was but she had blue glasses on and blue lipstick - so that gives you some perspective on what her answer was going to be. He asked her if she had any resolutions for 2011? She answered that she wasn't going to be a douche bag next year! You should have seen the look on his face!! So I guess I too won't be a douche bag next year either - sounds like a good resolution for the entire human race - so let's ALL try not to be a douche bag this year! Poor Ryan Seacrest!

Anyway, I guess my resolutions (besides not being a douche bag) is to eat healthier - I have a tendency to eat junk food particularly when I am at the markets (got to stay away from Jean Paul and Donna's Gourmet Cookies!). Secondly, we really do need to get our finances back in order. Our checking and savings accounts took major beatings in 2010. We need to get those back in order. Really need to start saving. Last year we cut up all our credit cards (good bye Discover card snip snip snip, good bye Kohls snip snip snip, good bye Visa snip snip snip, good bye Dilliards snip snip snip) That was the best (and hardest) thing we ever did! Those are the two "big" ones. I also have a tendency to worry a lot. Bobby jokes that I worry because I don't have anything to worry about (hmmm, everything is going too well - that can't be right, there must be something wrong!) I will try to keep the house cleaner - yeah right! (now, where is that DARN maid!!!).

Anyway, I want to wish you all a happy, safe, healthy and peaceful 2011! Good luck with whatever resolutions you may or may not make in 2011.
