What are y'all's New Year's resolutions? Mine is to play racquetball at least once a week.

Mine is now "I live for Interesting" as I tend to do themes instead of resolutions. This past year started with "All is Well" but quickly turned into "All is Woe". More fitting of my year, anyway. And the year before was "I can do Hard Things".

I think I'm still recovering from Lent and Post-Lent and will have to wait till spring.

Graduate by this summer? Sounds good enough to me.

Maybe I should start thinking about things like this...

We have some family goals, like getting up for scriptures and prayer every morning.

Oh yeah, I read about that in my allrecipes newsletter, so I can verify that Imogen's not just making it up.

Huh. Guess I'm going to be poor and unlucky this year. Oh well.

Well I am studying my scriptures more in depth, getting a high GPA, and working out at least three times a week. Hopefully.

I doubt you would object to doing any of those things more... however, maybe you innately get straight As, study your scriptures in depth with a question each night for a half hour, and run 10 miles every day... in that case maybe you should resolve to never speak badly of the president himself (maybe he will make stupid decisions, but then talk about his decisions and how to fix them, not how dumb he is) or maybe you need to resolve to throw at least 3 awesome parties this year

mine is to keep going to the gym like i've been doing for the past month. my bum knee has been feeling MUCH better since i started using the elliptical 3 times a week. it's hard because i hate to sweat, but i keep reminding myself that my knee feels good, and that's worth sweating for.

Good sweater! I have that Harry Potter pattern book, but all I've made out of it is the stuffed Errol.

Last year my New Year's resolution was to stay awake in Sacrament meeting. I surprised myself by suceeding.

This year I'm going to file a patent for something I invented. And I'm going to finish putting together my autobiography (age two to eight).
