I asked my family last night what their favorite part of 2005 had been. Spencer says, “Um, I don’t know.”
I’m thinking how about baby Lorelai or watching our toddler turn into a little girl or maybe watching our first born mature into a not-so-little girl. Oh, wait. Those are mine. I guess he’ll get back to me on that one. Stacia’s favorite thing was spending time with her family. Brenia had 3 favorites : “the new year, new car, and eating stuff.” That’s my girl!
Now is the time for New Year’s resolutions. I don’t make normal resolutions. I don’t see the point in making a declaration that is only going to stress you out and make you feel guilty when you inevitably fail a few months later. I prefer to make fun, easy to keep resolutions. One year I resolved to stop wearing underwear because it sucks. I’ve kept that one to this day. Another year I resolved to take a bubble bath nightly. I don’t get to it every, single night, but I certainly do my best.
I haven’t come up with anything for this year. I do want to get back into a yoga routine, but it’s not about losing the last of the baby weight or even the quiet meditation. I just like how much better I feel on a regular exercise routine. The other benefits are just a bonus. I need to come up with something more fun though because that reeks too much of a traditional New Year’s resolution. Maybe this year I’ll resolve not to pick up dirty socks that didn’t get that way on my own two feet. That sounds fun.
Yes! Another woman who doesn’t wear underwear just because it sucks and not for any reason having to do with sex. Now I don’t feel so alone. 🙂
I’ve attempted that one. Two weeks into that new year, I was sick of seeing dirty socks all over the house.
