New Years Resolutions

Okay, I have been chastised by a couple of bloggers (you cuties know who you are) that I am not blogging enough. It is true, I only have been blogging occasionally. Sometimes it's difficult to find time.

 

 

 

 

But one of my New Years resolutions is to find more time to communicate with you good people....also to exercise more, lose weight, eat right , etc.

We all work hard and take life pretty seriously, so another resolution is to have more fun and to take care of another. Recently, I had the opportunity to help a stranger clean the snow and ice off her car. It made a big difference in my attitude for the rest of the day. I'm not patting myself on the back, just saying helping someone everyday is the right thing to do.

Love to hear your New Years resolutions!

New Years Resolutions are the SOS different year. I would like to see all news media have their own professioanl resolution - that's to report the news accurately and without bias - it'd be a great change.

I'd like to know who those few blogger cuties are too!

Thanks Dan...we would love to hear from you more!....

I dont normally make NY's resolutions as they gen. are just made to be broken...lol... but this yr...with my hubby....we have decided to do what many do....lose wt, excercise more...

we are not going on a diet...dont like them. I lost 30 lbs 2yrs ago and kept it off b/c it was a life style change. TIme for hubby to make the same life style change and for me to renew....lol

I couldnt agree more with the helping someone out...it can and will brighten your day and can change your whole outlook on things....

thanks Dan

I intend to recycle more and learn more about the environment. Those are my big resolutions this year.

I have several areas I wish to improve upon. At work I will be instituting more programming to help those in need, developing additional partnerships, and be more involved in a direct way with the clients of the center.

In my personal life I need to spend more time with mom, get rid of the chaos in my life, and enjoy the company of others more.

Thanks for commenting Biker2Max. Reporting the news fairly and accurately is not a resolution. It is a mission that we have fulfilled year after year and will continue to do so in the future.

As for the blogger cuties...watch them get even cuter in 2008.

Ok for the new years resolutions, I'm still on this mission to lose more weight! Boxing is still in my future, hmmmm I think it should be in yours too!! Oh yes, join boxing so I can kick you bootey!! Oh ask Michelle I have a pretty mean hook! LOL I promise I won't hurt you!!
Ok, soooo I'm going to work on organizing my life! Giving out even more hugs! Telling people I love them all the time!! Yes I'm in a silly mood tonight! Well, since I watched Michelle clean all day, think I might go and clean my kitchen!!
Hey Dan! How about jumping in the lake!! LMAO

Peace, Jana<3

My New Year's Resolution has been the same for 31 years now....to meet Dolly Parton. But this year it's going to be different because I have read "The Secret"!!

Dan, I love what you said about helping to take care of others. That is really what living in this world is all about. Kurkel wrote a blog recently challenging all of us to go out in the community and do kind things for people and then share them on her blog. I loved reading those comments. Every time I did, it would inspire me to be a better person. I never felt like anyone was patting themselves on the back by saying the things they did, but rather they were encouraging all of us to step up to the plate and keep it going.

But selfishly....dang it!.....I still want to meet Dolly Parton in 2008!!

By the way, I want some of whatever Jana is drinking tonight....!

Jana...lol...are you on drugs tonight? lol...
Why are you telling Dan to jump in the lake? Why did you watch Michelle clean all day? I would love to join your kick boxing (isnt that what you do?) but you live too far away!....

Well I can tell you are in a good mood and that is good! peace out my friend...Kelly

Me too Michelle...me too!...lol..

We could take you to Dolly land Michelle...but guess what Dolly is not in or at Dolly land! lol....where are you going to go to find her? And why do you want to meet her...I mean there is nothing wrong in that....just curious is all!

And going back to the nice thing...it just feels good to be nice to someone and bring a smile to their face. It can make a bad day become better! Even just by being patient in the shop n save line while you wait for the lady in front of you to go buy something else so she can make the 50dollar mark so she can get her 10dollars off....lol...
And then smile and chat with the cashier b/c the guy in bet. that lady and me is not very happy about it!...lol.... Smile, have fun and be nice to ea other...its a good thing!

Kurkel....

We are discussing doing another outing on New Year's Day where we all jump in a river at the same time!! We're trying to convince Dan Gray to join us, but he has some hesitation about it for some silly reason....!!

Jana hung out with me today when I went to a friend's house to help her clean it. Then we went out for coffee, and made Tommy go along with us too.

Kickboxing...oh girl, it is so worth the drive. Jana drives all the way from Belleville and she doesn't mind at all. Kurkel, does your hubby still think we are possibly serial killers? LOL!

Jana is definitely NOT on drugs, but she IS awfully happy! Maybe it's because she spent the day with me.....??? :)

Kurdel....

"The Secret" is a book (and now a movie) by Rhonda Byrne that is just amazing. It really is good if you can read it and look beyond the "New Agy-ness" of some of it, and glean the good from it (there's a LOT of good), but my only problem with it is that Byrne seems to not credit God as the giver of all good things that come our way. So if you read it, and just substitute that kind of thinking....it is a GREAT book. Would be fantastic reading for going into the New Year....

Sorry Kurkel....I called you "Kurdel" in my last comment. Hehehe! I need to get in the habit of calling you "Kelly" like you have asked us to!!

thats ok....you are definately forgiven! I am sure Jana is sooooo much better and happier b/c she got to spend the day with you! And of course you doing something so good for someone else...how awesome!

Where is the kickboxing done at? I would love to do it if not TOO far....lol

Jumping in a river now???? BBRRR....you polar bears you....clothes on or off??? LOL>>>HEE HEE

Hey Kurdel!! LOL No no drugs, just happy to be feeling better! We had a great day! I was laughing so hard I started coughing earlier, and though I was going to cough up a lung or something! LOL

Ok I have laughed way to much today!! The boxing class is in Fenton, and I drive about 45 minutes to get there, so come on out girl and lets have some fun!!

Kickboxing is at Riverchase (right across from Chrysler in Fenton) and Monica Adams (traffic anchorwoman from the morning show) is the instructor. She will make your body hurt in ways you never thought possible, but it is sooooo much fun.....gosh, it would be great if you could do it with us Kelly. I'm trying to talk Tommy and Dan Gray into it too!

Not jumping in the river NOW....it will be first thing on New Years Day and you know it will be FUN!! I will definitely have clothes ON for this event...what you want to do is your choice Kelly...LOL!

The thing with Dolly, well, that is a long story. I have been fascinated with her since I was 5 years old. I really have been trying to meet her for years, and if anyone reading this can help me do that....ummmmm, you have no idea what it would mean to me!
