I have a better idea for this year and anyone who wants to join me in my New Year’s resolutions is more than welcome. I think the key is to come up with resolutions that you will have no trouble passing with flying colors. Then you’ll feel good about yourself. Here then are my New Year’s resolutions. I resolve to wake up every morning. (Eventually)  I also resolve to go to sleep every night. (Eventually)  I resolve to breathe on a regular basis.  I resolve to eat. (I was going to resolve to eat three meals a day, but it’s possible to flunk that one on the plus side.)  I resolve to get dressed, but I don’t have to match.  I resolve to answer the phone unless it doesn’t ring.  I resolve to order take out when I can’t face the fridge.  I resolve to take the dog out 12 times in one hour and clean up the result of not taking him the 13th.  I resolve to get the wrong socks in the wrong drawers and have my husband think everything shrunk or his feet had a growing spurt.  I resolve to go scream in a pillow because I don’t understand third grade math homework.  I resolve to run a toy strewn obstacle course to answer the door. (I also resolve to trip at least once a day)  I resolve to put off grocery shopping until there is nothing to eat and then go while starved and buy everything in sight.  I resolve to ignore the state of the windows in my house until I have to tune into the Weather Channel to see if it’s raining.  There isn’t a single resolution here that I will have trouble doing. I will faithfully observe every one of these. When December 31, 2009 comes along, I will look back and feel satisfaction that I kept all of my New Year’s resolutions. I’ve found that the secret isn’t about keeping resolutions, its about picking ones you "can" keep. Good Luck with yours and enjoy your year.
