No resolutions, just the usual back to gym and healthy eating. The gym part lasts until school lets out, but by that time I'm as bikini-ready as I'm going to be so it's all good.
Any worse than what?.........I resolve not to become any worse this year.

These are awesome - I might steal a few since mine are not appropriate for board posting. (not the lose twenty five pounds one, if I did that, you wouldn't be able to see me. Maybe i'll gain weight . . )From my Facebook:
Sure, I have resolutions. They don't mean more than resolutions any other time, but the turn of a new year is a good time to focus on goals with a mind toward getting them... ummm... resolved.
1. Lose 25 pounds.
This is doable. I've done it before. I have good reason to be motivated in terms of feeling good and living longer.
The probability of success is the question. Yes, I did it before. In 2011. With a heart attack fresh on my mind.

So I'm kinda hoping for failure, in a good way, on this one.
3. Moderate my political discussions.
I'm on a quest for dialogue that generates more light than heat. We should know by now that if someone isn't basing opinions on facts, data, and the obviousness of experience, all the discussion in the world isn't going to be persuasive. It's time to engage productively.
This one is doomed to failure.
4. Be more productive.

Hey, Jane Fonda’s almost up there and still looks pretty damn hot.
My youngest daughter and her friend made me go into Victoria’s Secret for some Christmas shopping. I put a lot of distance between me & them while in there, and stared at the exit, as I figured proximity and eye contact determines how creepy everyone thinks I am.
