Nope. Sorry. You're not going to find any resolutions here. First of all, I think making resolutions on one particular day of the year is probably a waste of time. I mean...come on....chances are you're hungover or at least very tired from staying up late, you're all bloated from grazing on not-good-for-you food until the wee hours of the morning, and you're probably generally in one of your worst moods of the year because the neighbor's dog, your kid(s) or a combination of these woke you up before 8:00 a.m.

So....why the hell would anyone pick a day like January 1st to make a list of all the things they hope to accomplish in the coming year? You're grouchy, tired, and generally not a very nice person to be around so clearly you're not thinking straight...yet you choose to make a comprehensive list of goals for the year? And THEN....you actually SHARE this list of goals with anyone who will listen?

What are ya? Nuts?

Uh uh...no sir...no way...not me.....ever. No resolutions or goals for me. I strongly feel that if you live your life the way you're supposed to live it and try to be a good parent and treat people the way they ought to be treated you shouldn't feel the need to take part in such a ridiculous exercise.

On the other hand...I'm not you or your spouse or your kids or your relatives who you think should have some plan to make themselves better. If resolutions work for you, that's great. I don't see how they would work, but if they do then good for you.

In short...don't do resolutions...never have...never will....don't understand why people do...but if they work for you that's cool.

Anyway, happy new year. Tommy comes back in the morning so there will be the eating of beer salami and pistachios and ham and the watching of football and the drinking of beer and probably a lot of napping.

Hope your day tomorrow is just as relaxing.

Cheers,

Peaches
