Resolved

In 2008 I hope to:

1) Suck up the sleeplessness;

2) Be more adventurous in activities with the kids;

3)  Find a way to make some money;

4) Cook more, eat better, and help my kids do the same;

5) Keep the apartment cleaner--either by figuring out how to do it myself or paying someone to do it for me (see item #3);

6)  Explore other housing alternatives, be they in the city or the suburbs--not necessarily to make a change, but to be aware of the options;

7) Commit to this blog or find another avenue for self-reflection and connection;

8) Incorporate physical exercise into my life;

9) Visit my brother and his family;

10) And last but not least, spend time alone with my husband.

And you?

Hi Lisa.

Can I just cut and paste your resolution list (minus the apt. part since I am already in the 'burbs, oh and I don't have a brother ;-) ) and claim it as my own??

Long time, no post from me but I have kept up with your blog. Glad to hear that all is well, minus the typical mom-of-two -young-children stuff.

Wishing you a very happy and healthy new year!

My list is not nearly as ambitious as yours! I'm aiming low this year. I've written mine on my blog, but here they are in a nutshell:
1. To succeed in the To Be Read Challenge of 2008.
2. To stop using curse words in front of the baby.
3. To start working out again.

Oh, and Happy New Year!

Yours are ambitious! I just posted my more modest plans. Happy new year!

Good list! Can I just steal it?! Hmm...I also need to figure out what to do with the rest of my life.

You inspired me to come up with my own list...thank you!!!

I hope you keep this blog. I always enjoy hearing about your life. :)

May 2008 be better than 2007. And may you get more sleep!

I am printing out you list and adding get organized and I will be all set. The husband and I are going out for dinner for the first time tonight since boy #2 arrived in October.
Happy New Year!!

to be resolved.

If I were the resolution making kind, my list would look a lot like this. I think two little kids must have a hand in it...

If you want to discuss a small slice of the other outer borough that starts with B, I'd be happy to oblige.

From your list I have 8 goals I need to do (better) next year :-) The only 2 things that are not the same : I have 2 sisters (no brother) and I don't blog only read blogs :-) (some good blogs)
Happy New Year and good luck with those 10 things on your list I'm sure you will do very good.
