Resolutions

Okay, here are my New Year's Resolutions, in no particular order. In 2009, I want to:

-- cook more tasty, nutritious meals for my family
-- be a better mother and wife
-- be perfect, in fact
-- scrub the kitchen floor more frequently
-- go skiing
-- learn to speak more softly
-- listen more
-- complain less
-- appreciate, appreciate, appreciate
-- take the path of least resistance
-- avoid malicious gossip, while enjoying fun gossip
-- enjoy my newfound energy and health
-- to get through the Inaugural without disaster striking
-- to go to New England this summer to visit my friends
-- to practice my French with Patricia Hermenault, my neighbor up the street, and learn a little more German from the Awodeys next door
-- relish every day, even difficult days, as a gift
