I'm still formulating my list of resolution for this year.... I'm sure I'll post them later in the week. Looks like you’ve got some good stuff there.

I've never been one for resolutions, but this makes it look so doable that now I feel like I should do the same! Great idea to break it into bite-size pieces - and to post it, to hold yourself accountable! You put me to shame with your healthy eating and especially the exercising. But I am planning to organize one area of the house each week, too. And being a more "mindful mommy" tops my goals. Wow!

I don't do resolutions usually but I am trying to go on my New Year diet as of today. It is very simple. The 5 Cs. No chips chocolate cake cookies chardonnay (this actually just means no alcohol) I will try and stick to all of them for the first week and then the alcohol will creep back in. :-) I hope to lose 5kg. It may take more than a week...... An impressive and well thought out list. I don’t do resolutions usually but I am trying to go on my New Year diet as of today. It is very simple. The 5 Cs.

It is a beautiful thing to behold! ;) I am going to be late on my list...I'm still working on those doable parts of the list.

Well, really I love starting a new anything, because, hi, new - but a new year is the best. Well, for the first few days, then I remember that it is colder than anything in KS in January and the novelty wears off just a bit. I make an entire page (or more!) of resolutions, with the thought that I am bound to keep at least a few of them. And then the rest usually just get added to the next year, with the hope that maybe if they stay on the list long enough they will get accomplished. Or I might just get tired of writing them over and over every year and get a new goal - either way, I'm easy to please. Your list looks great - I think that I might have to steal some of those good ideas...I'm thinking that scrapbooking 2 hrs/week would probably do wonders for the mountains of pictures I have waiting!

My kids don't eat anyhting for me - my mom got me the cookbook from Jerry Seinfeld's wife called Deceptively Delicious. She purees foods and adds them to the recipes. Butternut squash in macaroni and cheese - beets in pancake mix for Pink Pancakes! Emily ate them up! You can puree and freeze so it is quicker when you need it! Good luch on all of your resolutions - it is quite a great list with a lot of thought. I'm going to go work on mine now! JEnny That’s quite a list!
