Final New Year Resolution Blog for 2009

I have been pondering the concept of New Year Resolutions for the past few days. I have read several posts on this topic–some of which I have shared with you all.  I get the whole idea of wanting to start out the new year on a good note but what about ending the old year on a good note?  Why do we need a new year to do things that will improve our lives. 

Did you know that losing wieght is the number one resolution made and then tossed.  It makes you wonder why we even bother. In the spirit of the new year I will post a few more fun resolutions for you to consider in the coming year.

  • Sleep in a tent or under the stars
  • Learn to horseback ride
  • Walk on the beach more often
  • Make ice cream from scratch
  • Earning own money
  • Getting a paperroute or first job – This was my job in college!
  • Going to the movies with Dad or Mom on a parent/date night
  • Learn a new language
  • Learn a new hobby, like photography or basket weaving
  • Go to the zoo or aquarium ….or BOTH!
  • Have a backwards day, start the day with supper, then end the day with breakfast!
  • Get a massage ( every month!)
  • Get flowers for yourself
  • Find an address to your favorite famous person and write them a letter. See if they write you back- Does anyone know Brett Favre's address I want to give him a pep talk.
  • Roast marshmallows over a bonfire in your backyard 
  • Go on a breakfast picnic.
  • Take a bicycle trip.
  • Build a tree house or fort
