Resolutions

I have never been big on New Year's resolutions. Seems like one of those dumb promises you make to yourself that you end up breaking after a month anyways. And they typically seem so cliche. I get really irritated at all the people who make the resolution to lose all kinds of weight because those are the people that are crowding my gym the first 3 months of the year and then never come back. It's annoying for those of us who work out year round.

Anyway...I started thinking this year of all these random habits I'd like to start doing and thought maybe this would be a good start to actually doing some New Years resolution. Nothing like "I will eat healthier, or workout everyday." Nothing cliche like that. Just small habits that will make life easier. Like....maybe every Mon-Fri that I'm home before 10 pm, check the mail. I have a bad habit of checking it once a week and then I HATE going thru it all. Then it ends up making a huge mess because it just sits on the counter. Or maybe even to fix the bed every morning. Little things like this. So Brandon and I decided that we will each make a resolution of our own and then also make one together. We will also set up a jar for each of us. Every time I don't follow thru with my resolution, I have to put $1 in his jar and every time he doesn't follow thru with his, he puts $1 in my jar.
