MINE IN '09

I'm not typically big on New Years' Resolutions. Perhaps it's because I fail to follow through with them. However, I think I'm going to give it a shot this year. Although a goal, I'm not going the whole "weight loss" route. I'd rather set myself up for success. A friend of mine did what I'm about to mention last year and found it to be quite productive. Each week, I plan to write down at least 3 things that I am thankful for. If I am committed, I will have at least 156 things to post this time next year. My hope is that I focus on the positives and the blessings in my life, rather than those things that are a negative distraction. I think it will also give Robbie and I a chance to reminisce on some of the things that happened throughout the year, as I realize that not everything on my list will be super serious. A goofy moment and the ability to laugh is certainly something to be thankful for!

So what about you - are you making any resolutions?

Or does your resolution involve not making one at all?
