I being of sound mind and body.....whoa, wrong intro.
For 2007, I resolve to:
- Work out, in some form, 3 days a week. And no, walking from my living room to the basement is not going to be considered working out in 2007.
- Finish a couple pc applications for people who have been patiently waiting on me. Only two versions of MS Office later than I promised.
- Take the kids fishing at least 4 times. Trust me, a fishing trip is not a walk in the park.
- Eat far less potato chips and french onion dip....one of my vices
- Drink fewer venti cappucinos (average no more than 1 a week).
- Not embarrass my second oldest son at any of his swim meets this summer. I tend to cheer for him as loud as humanly possible.....and when you are 13/14, this ain't cool.
- Set up the lawn spinkler more often for the kids...and not feel compelled to try and spray Mrs. WHW with it.
- Use the lawn trimmer when appropriate, instead of using the mower as a trimmer.
- Discourage the kids from cranking out big belches, instead of offering token discipline, then snickering to my wife.
- Get my wife something SHE wants for Valentine's Day (nothing from VS )
- Not over-indulge in the corned beef and cabbage this St. Patrick's day (no comment on the green beer)
- Get the oil changed and the tires rotated when I should on my car
- Record more of the kids activites using our digital camcorder
- Not lecture the kids on how great cartoons were when I was a kid
- Stop imitating Lumberg(Office Spaces) all the time. "Hey, Mrs WHW. What's happening?? OOO, yeah. I'm gonna have to sort of disagree with you." Bat, I blame you for this habit.
- Save up money for a new computer
- Not over-use my airhorn
- Start saving for a piano for Mrs. WHW. This may take priority over #16. Not sure, yet.
- Buy a DVD copy of the 80's tv series "Police Squad". A six episode classic series. Hey, I have to have at least one gimme on the list.
- Take Mrs. WHW to at least one movie that gets more than a 1/2 star rating.

I've seen you accomplish quite a bit when you put your mind to it - not drinking Dew and making fun of Kelly come to mind. I have complete confidence that you'll at least bat .500 on this list! And if you're not gonna eat the chips & dip, pass them over here...
You know, I should be blogging a list like this (or at least something). But what am I doing instead? Playing 2.5 hrs of Lego Star Wars. That game kicks!!! Well, maybe tomorrow:)
What great resolutions! You have inspired me to start thinking of my own. I usually hate resolutions, but you made them a lot more interresting.
BTW - just getting to a movie that is not a kids movie would be an accomplishment for the Mr. & I.
You're an inspiration today! I'm going to get a list posted tomorrow. I've got a few resolutions bouncing around in my noggin...may as well post them! :o)
Happy New Year!
WOW I would not know where to start on a list like that I applaud you for finishing that many..I only did one thing well this year and that was give up the diet sodas completely..trust me that is not easy either!!! Well I may work on some of the ones I had maybe two years ago..they never got finished either.. Ms. Procrastinator here too! HAPpy New Year to ya.. (the gun shots are keeping my busy so I can't sleep tonight) Hope you dont over do it on the RITZ!! HAH!
