| I've been so sucky about keeping up with my blog. I figure that I've averaged about one entry a week since I started, so I guess that's not too bad. Or at least not bad enough to make a resolution out of it. I do make resolutions, though, and with some degree of success. My trick is to make them small. Last year's resolution was to take better care of my books and CDs (not leave them scattered all over the floor of my car like I had been) that way if I got desperate for cash I could sell them. Other than my CD box tipping over last week (a couple of them are still stuck under the passenger seat) I've managed to keep up with it. I feel very accomplished!  This year I'm trying for a bigger list: *Write the date things are opened on the packages in my fridge (so much pricey, organic food spoils in my possession because I'm afraid to eat it without knowing when I opened it) *Put money in my savings every paycheck (notice how there's no specified amount. There will probably be a couple of $5 deposits before the year is out. ).*Do something that improves my sense of well-being every day (this could involve going to the gym, getting a massage, or even just eating a big salad with dressing on the side) I think I can manage this. Wish me luck. Happy New Year!! |
