Who else doesn't have a new years resolution?
I figure if there's something about myself I want to change, I'll do it. Anyhow, I'm already going back to school, wearing smaller pants, eating well and living within my means, so I can't imagine what I'd come up with.

:shrug:

1. Mine was: Do seven unexpected things
That was several years ago. It worked out well enough that it's my standard resolution :-)

2. I've usually forgotten what mine were by MLK day.
So now I just don't make them. :P

3. I didn't, until today.
I don't typically make New Year's resolutions. However, I am trying to find storage for all the stuff my kids got for Christmas, am taking down a lot of the Christmas stuff I decorated with, am realizing my closet and dresser can't hold all of my clothes, and I'm thoroughly disgusted with our over-consumerism. Therefore, I resolve to reduce and reuse, make do with what we've got, donate some of our excess stuff, cut down or eliminate excess and stupid spending, and be able to save enough money to pay for our 2008 family vacation in cash.

We have too much stuff. And it kind of makes me sick.

4. Moi
It's not that I don't need to change stuff (HA!), it's that I figure, like you, I'll change it when I'm ready, not when some tradition says I should.



I'm stubborn that way.
