Resolutions
Robin’s talking about the new year and fresh starts over at her blog, which got me to thinking about the best New Year’s resolutions I ever wrote. I reread them, and I still believe in them 100%. I am reposting and reresolving. Over the next 12 months I will:
1. Eat plenty of fried egg sandwiches.
2. Watch plenty of movies.
3. Support the local economy by purchasing food and/or beverage items at the Leaf and Bean on a regular basis.
4. Get my money’s worth out of my YMCA membership.
5. Keep my house untidy.
6. Read every day.
7. Write every day.
8. Work very hard at the last minute to complete my writing assignments within 24 hours of deadline.
9. Let go of hate. It is the path to the dark side.
10. Update watat.com on a daily basis.
Yee haw. That is a good life.

Good ones. I may have to make a fried egg sandwich in your honor this week. And I do like #10.

I will join you in the untidy house resolution.
These sound like resolutions I can get behind. Happy New Year to you!

That's a good one, Adrienne. I'd add "Seek out doughnuts on a regular basis" to mine.

I had an omelet this morning--it was fried to a crisp, but ended up tasting soooo good! Happy New Year!

Alkelda, The Kidlitosphere conference is in my calendar. :)
Little Willow, Yay! That's my goal!
Stephanie, I am out of bread, so I also had to start my new year off with an omelet. It works.

Yee haw, that is a good life! I love those, Adrienne! I'm totally stealing most of them (we don't have a Leaf and Bean, for example). Thanks!

Robin, You can feel free to substitute the coffee establishment or bakery of your choice.
Susan, Numbers 5 and 8 are my favorites, too.
