I recognize that we've already bypassed the first week of January without me posting any New Year's resolutions. Last year, I had a clear resolution - a resolution that was important enough to me to keep. And I did - at least, I committed to my very best effort to find the place to be happy. Not physically...not in the sense of moving or staying, of where I am...but more a state of being. And now that I'm there, I'm resolving to stay there. So this is less about resolutions and more of a to do list for staying the course I chose last year.
* Get my passport
* Travel more - am already tackling this by planning trip to SF with Nik and Jenn and Cleveland Rocks with Kim
* Practice my photography (on subjects including and other than Dillon)
* Stop being afraid of new people
* When I say, "Someday, I'd like to..." really think about when someday might be and how to get there
* Buy (yipe!) a house
* Be kind to other people
* Have perspective - about blessings, about all the things that could happen that don't, about all the places I'm not, about all the places I am
* Learn
* Get to work on time more often; leave work on time more often
* Snuggle Kudzu every day
* Blog it out

What fantastic resolutions! And if you want to travel more, come visit us in DC!
"Blog it out." -- Love it.
I'm so glad that you were able to find that happy place. And I love all the "to do"s for this year--I should totally get my passport, too!
Yowza! All great resolutions, and very concrete too. I also wish to travel more--it's time to start making those kinds of memories.
