Well, it’s January 2nd and I am just now getting a reasonable list of resolutions together. This year, I think I will group my resolutions into categories to try and make them a little bit more logical. Who knows? Maybe, I will be able to track them and actually keep all of them!

1. Take better care of myself
   1. Find an exercise I like
   2. Determine frequency of exercise
   3. Do the exercise on that frequency
2. Help the environment
   1. Find a way to save water by the end of January 2009
   2. Do that way of saving water
3. Build stronger relationships with my kids
   1. Spend 1 day per month with each kid solo
   2. Build a science experiment each month with Brennan
   3. Attend all of my kids’ school events
   4. Attend all of my kids’ sports events
   5. Enroll Brennan in soccer
   6. Coach Brennan in basketball again
   7. Help Brennan learn to swim
   8. Help Claire learn to swim
   9. Take the kids to the snow
4. Help around the house more
   1. Find a chore that needs to be done better by end of January
   2. Pick that chore up and do it for the year.
5. Be home for dinner 3 nights per week
6. Call my parents once per week
7. Build stronger relationships with friends
   1. Restart “guy’s night”
   2. Restart the bi-monthly gatherings
8. NEW ADD: Attend all of Bentley’s meetings.

Well, that is my list. I tried to stay away from the “lose ten pounds” and “be better” resolutions as those never get done.  If you read this and have any thoughts, please feel free to post them.
