I have never been one to keep a New Year's Resolution, and I see no reason to start now. That said, there are some things I'd like to do in the coming year.
1. Get healthier physically. I've quit smoking, which is a great first step. I started South Beach last year, but found that to be too much of a change right then. I'm going to give another look at it this year, once I have more control over my kitchen. I've also got an appointment to check out a gym tomorrow night, and went today and bought workout clothes that aren't from the early 90's. I'm FIRMASSing it over at the WD and attempting to be mindful about what I put in my body. So yeah, one goal started.
2. Get healthier emotionally. The past few months have been exhausting for me emotionally speaking. I'm tired of it. I've been working on my spiritual health with my circle and by myself, and that's been a help but I'm still spending far more time than I want to complaining about my life and wallowing in negativity. It's a very difficult thing that I hope will get better once May rolls around and Fred and I have our home to ourselves again. In the meantime, I am working on having more time to myself, and doing some self exploration. I've got a good handle on who I am now, it's time to work on the parts of me I don't like a whole lot.
3. Cultivate patience. There are good reasons why my life isn't going at the pace I want it to. I know this from past experience. I just need to keep reminding myself of it.
4. Have fun! Not to say that I don't already. It's just something I'd like to keep on doing.
On the whole things are really good. I have all my basic necessities taken care of and a whole lot of extras. I have my health and the health of my family. I have lots of wonderful people who give me love and support. Parts of 2005 were difficult, but more because of what was going on around me, and happening to people I care about than because of anything happening directly to me.
My wish for 2006 is that everyone I know, and everyone I don't have a healthy and happy year that is leaps and bounds above the last one.

Ditto on the fitness thing. I see workout tops I want in my mind, but no shops sell them! They are cropped vest tops, or those tops with straps that are cut so the shoulder blades are uncovered- in short, think Sydney Bristow's workout stuff! [wink]
I've luckily got some good vest tops from Topshop over here, which are like £6 each, so do me pretty well.
Go FIRM ASS!
Cultivate patience.
I don't know that I will be able to do that in this lifetime. BUT - I hope you will be able to accomplish I what I don't seem to be capable of ;]
We'll be glad to anything we can to suppoo you in achieving your goals.
