Okay, here we go again! A new year, the slate wiped clean, all hope and no disappointment on this the first day of the year.
About resolutions. Some years I do, some years I don't. This feels like a "do" year, but with a softer edge. I know the resolution is supposed to be specific and measurable, but it just doesn't feel right this year. Here are my resolutions for 2008:
1. Do Something Every Week. The "something" can be big, like "swim the English Channel", or small, like "go to a movie on a Tuesday". My life is so routine; I work, I cook, I surf, I tube out, I sleep. Repeat. It shouldn't be that hard to introduce something else, eh??
2. Be good to my body. By "good", I mean healthy. I don't like that. I'd rather eat chocolate and drink beer and watch TV. But I hear that these things can lead to very undesirable consequences. So more carrots, less chocolate. More water, less beer. More walk, less TV. Oh, the despair!!!
3. Be Me. I am not sure what is left that is mine after "employee", "wife", "mother", "daughter", etc. I know that of course I am those things. But is there a core of me that exists outside these roles? I'm honestly not sure.
Okay, hubbie calling. Ironic, given #3, huh? Oh well, later gator.
