NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS YOU CAN KEEP

Are you sick of making the same resolutions year after year that you never keep?

Why not promise to do something you can actually accomplish? Here are some resolutions that you can use as a starting point:

1. Gain weight. At least 30 pounds.
2. Stop exercising. Waste of time.
3. Read less. Makes you think.
4. Watch more TV. I've been missing some good stuff.
5. Procrastinate more. Starting tomorrow.
6. Not date any of the Baywatch cast.
7. Spend more time at work, surfing with the T1. 8. Take a vacation to someplace important: like,the back of the livingroom sofa.
9. Not jump off a cliff just because everyone else did.
10. Stop bringing lunch from home: I should eat out more.
11. Not have eight children at once.
12. Get in a whole NEW rut!
13. Start being superstitious.
14. Personal goal: bring back disco.
15. Not wrestle with Mike Tyson.
16. Not bet against the New England Patriots.
17. Buy an '83 Eldorado and invest in a really loud stereo system.
18. Get the windows tinted. Buy some fur for the dash.
19. Speak in a monotone voice and only use monosyllabicwords.
20. Only wear jeans that are 2 sizes too small and use a chain or rope for a belt.
21. Spend my summer vacation in Cyberspace.
22. Not eat cloned meat.
23. Create loose ends.
24. Get more toys.
25. Get further in debt.
26. Not believe politicians.
27. Break at least one traffic law.
28. Not drive a motorized vehicle across thin ice.
29. Avoid transmission of inter-species diseases.
30. Avoid airplanes that spontaneously drop 1000 feet.
31. Stay off the MIR space station.
32. Not worry that a new strain of bug will cause the end of the world.
33. Get wired with high-speed net connections at home.
34. Not swim with Pirahnas or sharks.
35. Associate with even worse business clients.
36. Spread out priorities beyond my ability to keep track of them.
37. Wait around for opportunity.
38. Focus on the faults of others.
39. Mope about my faults.
40. Never make New Year's resolutions again.

Not the point. You deserve a “welcome home”...((HUGS))

And I like your resolution...it is a good thing that we make sure that none of our military are mistreated the way our Viet Nam vets were. This we must do in spite of the MSM, etc.

I expect your camera to already be plugged in, charging, and tethered to your suitcase! LOL!

Oh, and the “stuff” it takes to connect to your laptop should already be packed. d:o)

It’s Nana’s laptop, so I can’t exactly pack it just yet. But trust me, it’s all going to be packed and ready to go before that week.

FWIW, FAA or TSA have come out with new rules for traveling with Lithium batteries. I’m not doing it, so don’t have to worry.

Ooops...sorry Nana. Packing can wait. But, please, make sure the camera gets in his bag.

Is it bad traveling with lithium batteries? Who has them?

Thanks, AZ, for subbing today while StarCMC gets some much needed family time at the farm, hopefully stress free. Cause when she gets home, it's gonna be really busy for several weeks.

They showed a picture on Weatherbug of Newby’s (?) ski area.
The skiers will be thrilled. :D
