This year, I again have no resolution for New Years. To be honest I had a terrible, horrible last couple of years. I can basically care less. We've got yet another sell out in office for President, of which is handing our economy over to foreign countrys. Our country is slowly becoming a Communist organization. I've had a lot of bad luck this year, more than good luck. My personal setbacks have been an everyday occurence this past year. My self esteem has taken a massive nose dive more and more with each passing year. I haven't any ambition to make any kind of resolution this year, partially because I don't know where to start, and secondly because it's ineffective anyways.

Lose the 10 lbs. my doctor told me to lose in 2008. Which should lower my blood pressure.

Travel more.......A LOT more.

Shop for and perhaps buy a new vacation home somewhere in the Texas Hill Country region, or ???

Consider buying an SUV of some sort......Jeep perhaps.

Spend more, and earn more during 2010.

After a year of our relationship taking a hit but working out, 12 months of unemployment, being tight on $$, back in school and nearly losing my dog, I've decided I can do anything I put my mind to. So a few minutes before midnight tonight, I will smoke my last Dunhill and pack it in for smoking cold turkey. Not a chain smoker to begin with, but it's time to stop...

I'll get one of those signs off the back of a fire truck and nail it to my head: KEEP BACK 300 FEET..

I hear you one that! My resolution is to not eat healthy, work out, drink excessively on the weekends, and lightly study!

Seriously New Year's resolutions are just pointless.

My advice? And I know you din ask for it...
Set attainable goals.

Not like sunedog: Trying to quit drinking for a whole year? I'll bet that was real tough. Quite an accomplishment.

I just want to get my 240D running. And my kids (now 18) working.
