What I want to know, from you my readers, is what are your resolutions for this year. I also want to know what the craziest thing is you have ever vowed to do once the end of the year moved past.

Popping in on the Hop.
ReplyDeleteMy resolutions this year are to publish my first novel, write a few more, read a lot, and do some traveling.
One year, I resolved to not drink wine all year... I made it about to St Patrick's Day, then it was all over. I like my wine ;)
I have goals this year instead of resolutions... My goal is to finally graduate college in October and hopefully have a pretty great accounting job by that time also. Plus attend my first romance convention.
ReplyDeleteI once tried not swearing for the whole year... I lasted about two months replacing swear words with other words like sugar, cheese and rice, darn and frack lol.
Good luck! Cheryl
ReplyDeleteThanks for the great hop stop :)
ReplyDeleteI want to write more this year and have much more FUN!! As for crazy, I've never made a crazy one...just not a crazy person! LOL

This year I plan to get healthy. I am going to water arobics three times a week and I am going to have an operation on my hip that I have put off far too long. I once vowed to give up chocolate but I only lasted two months. Crazy, huh!!!
ReplyDeleteHmm...craziest New years resolution ever was when I was 21. I resolved to not marry another David! I had already married 2 different Davids by the age of 20 and been divorced (the first time I was 16.) Sadly, I almost married the second David again after we divorced. Thank heavens I came to my senses first. Now I am 7 years David-free. E-mail is centerstagegirlyATyahooDOTcom
ReplyDeleteMy resolutions are to get better about sticking with a schedule and to try and finish my WIP.
ReplyDeletecraziest would be sleep more :) hee hee
ReplyDeleteI want to write a book
Craziest I want to jump out of an airplane..This year Is I want to jump out of an airplane before I get to old to do it..ha ha
ReplyDeleteCraziest is to drive cross country to the Grand Canyon.
ReplyDeleteI'm a pretty down-to-earth, non-crazy person, so no crazy resolutions here...sorry;) My resolutions this year are to improve myself physically, mentally, and emotionally. Maybe THAT is crazy!

ReplyDeleteI haven't ever had a crazy resolution.

Craziest goal I ever set was to try zip lining at the age of 45. I tried it and it is as much fun as it looks.... until you slam into the first tower because you were too nervous to listen to the instructor before you took off! It is amazing what an incentive that was to listen before taking off again! Absolutely loved the rest of the course.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway

ReplyDeleteI want to read more great books and exercise more.

To actually read some books. Since going freelance as an editor last year, I have read a grand total of one book for 'pleasure'! So that's mine. Shouldn't be hard to beat one!
ReplyDeleteGet rid of half my worldly possessions. Counts for both.
