Does it really matter anyway? I mean, how many people actually keep theirs? I make them and then break them

Actually, I have not had a soft drink in 5 days! I am so addicted to one in particular, but I find that I feel so much better when I dont drink them. and 5 days if pretty dog gone good. I usually dont make it past 3.

In 2006, the only tobacco I'll smoke..and I'm not joking here, is a good cigar. Very partial right now to these hand-rolled Sambucca numbers around Rochester.
Oh, baby. With a nice dark Porter? Oh, babe.

I am going to try to quit drinking sodas, and start exercising again. Exercising was my new years resolution last year, and I did it until the end of August. I have to start doing something, because I am getting fat.

And I say this every year, and never can get through the year: try to get into the habit of wearing underpants much more often.

I'm going to try to keep my house clean. I've let it get so bad that I just don't want to go home any more. So my resolutions are things like do the dishes after ever meal, laundry once a week not just when we run out of socks and underware...

I do the same thing with those small creamers at restaurants.

I'm trying to make a whole gallon of milk.

My first resolution for '06; I resolve to take the stairs at work, rather than the elevator. I’m going to see if I can’t stay out of the elevator the entire year.

My office is on the 3rd floor but I also have need to visit the floors above and below me. The only exception, if I am transporting bunches of loan files elevator use is OK!

Mine is regardless of how bad a day I may have had at work, when I walk in the door to my house and am met by the chaos that 3 kids and a frazzled wife can bring, that I will breathe deep, smile, and try to enjoy that window of time with my family, regardless of what moods the twins, or the pre-teen or the frazzled wife are in. I resolve to try to accomplish this for at least 75% of the days I work.

My resolution is to not let the people who just want to start a fight on here get to me. Because if I respond to thier attacks, that makes me no better than they are.

Mine is to exercise less and drink more. I wanted it to be something that I could actually attain.

I know what you mean, but with me it's packets of soy sauce. I could open a Chinese restaurant at this point.

FINALLY ABOVE the gnat line
I read an article that said you shouldn't make New Year's Resolutions - you should set specific, measurable, obtainable goals. They should be written down where you can track them, you should share them with a friend to help hold you accountable and you should be willing to adjust them if you see that they were too ambitious - not throw it out the window but make adjustments. We should set goals just like we do at work and track our progress.

I believe I'll set three personal goals for this new year - that shouldn't be overwhelming. Who wants to partner and keep me on track?
