I have decided...you...are...not...orcs...

No wait, wrong line.

I didn’t make New Year’s resolutions this year, but did resolve to focus on 1) health (if I don’t I won’t be able to walk in a year) and 2) writing.

This morning I decided that this is the year I get something published. Even if it’s the self publishing of a novel. I think I’ve narrowed it down to Nano2007 or Nano2005.

But that’s muh goal.

Good for you!

So step one would be finish the book, right?

I’m having similar thoughts about NaNo07 myself...

Ya know...if you really want to attract buyers on Craigslist, perhaps it’s best *not* to use your pimp.hustler@hotmail account as your contact.

I am not making this up. See?

I at least plan to do the February attempt-to-finish deal. Dunno that I’m ready to publish yet. But I’d be interested in following along as you do it! Sounds like a worthy goal to me.

You know, (because I think I said so), my New Year Resolution this year is to get caught up and be prepared. One of my goals for this year is to save up at least 3 months of income. I figure we can live on $1600 a month in an emergency so that's what? $4,800. I already have $1000 saved.

Also, I used to be far more prepared for disaster and emergency situations than I am now. By the grace of God, we weren't impacted as hard as some in the community by the recent ice storm. We would've been in trouble, just because of lack of heat. So I'm restoring a kerosene heater.

Then I got this today in my email from my Medical Reserve Corps. Perfect!

I want to lose weight.... sixty pounds in six months. I think that’s doable... But I haven’t gotten the best start.

I have to do better. Bay’s another year older, I can’t keep getting heavier and expect him to carry me around.
