Resolve

I'm not sure why people make resolutions. So few of us keep them. But we keep trying, and I guess that's a small victory. That we don't just say "screw it." and walk away.
I found a new toy over the holiday from work. It's called "Fitocracy". It takes working out and makes it like a game. You log your workouts and you get points. There are quests and achievements and there's groups of peeps you can join and compete with. It is entertaining and I find myself trying to work in some exercise just so i can log it and get points. Hey, I use whatever works.
I like to keep my resolution list short and concise, mostly because there's so much I need to improve I think I might need about 3 different lists. One for my health, one for my finances, one for my general state of being. But since I don't think anyone here cares overmuch if I vow to knit more, I'll give you the short version.

1. Make Cracksandwiches a once-a-week thing, instead of an every other day thing.

2. Hit the gym 2 times a week. At least.

3. Work my program. Track the points, pay attention to what I'm doing.

There, those are my three big ones. What are some of yours? What do you resolve to do in the coming year? Do you make the same resolutions every year? Or do you have an ongoing outline and just review it at the end of every year. Checking off what you've accomplished, refining and reorganizing as you go?

But have a cup of kindness, my friends, and let's drink to auld lang syne.

Happy New Year!
