Only a few days left to make New Years Resolutions.

[fuzzybuddy]

Yup, New Years 2024 is sneaking up on us. That means only a few days left to make New Years Resolutions. I think I'll use the resolutions I've been using for the last 40-50 years, Going on a diet, etc.
Hey, I did quit smoking!
Are you going to try New Years Resolutions one more time?

 

[CathyHorn]

First let me say Congratulations on quitting smoking! That's a huge accomplishment! I tend to make the same resolutions year after year. Exercise, lose a few pounds, get out of debt. Happy New Year!

 

[Supernatural]

Haven't made any in the past decade, not changing my style as I get to accomplish whatever as it happens so, no need for resolutions. Bah!

 

[dilettante]

I'm trying to limit the scope to improve my odds. Right now I'm sticking with:

"Be kinder to others and more patient."

That might be a cheat though. Since the pandemic days I don't have a high degree of in-person interaction.

 

[Pepper]

Every day in Every Way I'm Getting Better & Better

 

[MarciKS]

You guys still do resolutions? I gave those up years ago. I know I'm not gonna stick to them so no point in making myself miserable for the new year. I figure if I really wanted to lose weight it would be a done deal by now. Maybe someday.

 

[Remy]

It can't hurt to try I guess, so I will.

 

[OneEyedDiva]

A few years ago I had stopped making resolutions because I didn't stick to them, especially that one about losing weight. But just last week, I decided my resolutions for 2024 will be:
~Keep up with the chores better
~Sit down and play my instrument more, including practicing for techniquel
~Eat healthier, which unfortunately means I'll have to cook more. I'm seeing a nutritionist again to help with that.
~Create and stick with an exercise plan.

My resolution is to make a list of daily things that I want to do but keep forgetting. Like: stretch legs, neck stretch, brush cat, etc. Can't think of what else right now but it's simple things that I just forget about. And of course the usual exercise consistently.

 

[Robb.hisself]

I 'make' new years resolutions all year long. Easier to keep them when they are still 'warm'. By the next December 26th they are pretty old and cold by then. And, I've mostly forgotten what they were.

 

[mrstime]

I haven't made a new years resolution in at least 50 years. Never kept one when I did make one.

 

[Tish]

Well, I made one over 15 years ago to never make one again, so far so good.

This year I’m giving up vaping. I’m lying to myself thinking I’m not smoking it. There’s is a bit of smoke from the vape. I think I’m allergic to it.

My next New Year’s resolution is to exercise everyday. I used to walk daily outside but I am now using my treadmill to challenge myself better

 

[-Oy-]

13 days to go til New Year's Eve. Plenty of time

I won't be doing resolutions and haven't for years now. The reason is that I found all I ever did was sabotage myself from reaching those goals anyhow, so I just stopped trying... now I set goals during the year when they need to be accomplished.

 

[birdy]

I don't make resolutions cause I have found that inevitably fail to reach the goal. I will settle for becoming obsessed with going to the gym for a myriad of reasons. I just wish I didn't have to put so much mileage on my car to do it.

 

[Robb.hisself]

I just wish I didn't have to put so much mileage on my car to do it.

Increase your exercise by walking to the bus stop and save your car. Enjoy the sunshine, too. Happy New Year!

I don't know in which area @birdy is located, but personally I'd have to walk 20 miles to a town that has a public bus system. If they still have it... things like that aren't available in smaller towns and rural America.

 

[hearlady]

I will be on social media including SF less next year. I get sucked in and waste too much time.
Once a week.

 

[Jace]

Haven't made any in the past decade, not changing my style as I get to accomplish whatever as it happens so, no need for resolutions.

Yup! Agreed

 

[hearlady]

Maybe once a day.

 

[Georgiagranny]

I hereby resolve to make no resolutions. Therefore, none will be broken.

 

[dilettante]

I hereby resolve to make no resolutions. Therefore, none will be broken.

Sometimes the best ones are bound to be broken anyway. Don't mistake the destination for the journey. Sometimes that's all you can get, and the ride might well be worth it!

 

[Jules]

I‘ve never ever made a resolution and don’t plan on starting now.

 

[Paladin1950]

Get up. Eat breakfast. Take a shower. Go to work. I've been doing that for years. Never broke my resolutions. Then again, I don't know if thet were ever resolutions.
