Resolutions Revisited

In the spirit of the new year, I thought I'd reflect on last year's resolutions. If nothing else, they would be good for a laugh, eh?

1. I want to be able to jog from my house to the Wilson's house and back without stopping or dying.
Ha ha! I do hate to jog, and making it a resolution didn't change that fact. This resolution was a dumb one, and I won't try it again. It ranks right up there with my desire to be a research physicist. It sounds wonderful and interesting, but it's not really a good match.

2. To watch my junk intake until the five pounds are gone.
Well, I watched the junk. I watched it go right into my mouth. I'm basically where I was last year in January with weight. So, I'll keep thinking on this one.

3. To memorize a verse a week.
Although I memorized several verses, I didn't memorize 52. I'll keep at it.

4. To read six missionary biographies in addition to some other non-fiction histories.
Yeah! Something I actually did!

5. To make my blog more interesting.
You'll have to decide on this one. It was interesting to me, at least. What do you like best about it? Is there something I should do more often or start to do or not do at all?

Speaking of my blog, is my font too small? It looks fine on my machine, but I want it to be readable for all.

How many books did you read this year? What were your favorites? Did you complete something of which you are particularly tickled? I'll have to review my list of things done to see if there was something of note. I'd love to hear yours!

I hope to post some pictures of the party when my computer is fixed. The part is in State College, now, so it shouldn't be long before it's at my door! (Presses nose to window, waiting for that big, brown truck.)

I had fun rereading last years resolution and finding I had made a bitty bit of progress!

I think your blog font is fine, btw!

Haha, that's great! I especially like the first one.

And it's no surprise that you were successful with number 4.
