It's resolutions time again!

Well, tomorrow is New Years Day and I’m sitting here trying to figure out just where this year went to!
Along with many others, I’m getting my resolutions made and ready to start ...
As with many, on my list is to lose weight and also to cut down on smoking.
Cut down on smoking instead of trying to quit? Yep - I’m gonna do it a bit at a time instead of all at once.

Another goal I have is that I’m committing to compacting for the entire month of January.
Basically what that means is to buy nothing new with the exception of food and medical supplies and of course, hygiene things as well.
Anything else is off-limits unless you can borrow it, barter for it, buy used.
This ought to be an interesting journey, for sure! ![]()

And, I’m also starting the purplecc system again and re-joined the yahoo group for support.
Here’s the link if anyone else is interested in checking it out.
Basically what it is, is that you create a chart of everything you have to do [daily chores and other things you need to do as well] ...
Then you give each chore a certain number of points and you keep track of points daily, weekly and monthly and at the end of the month, you rewards yourself somehow.
With mine, at the end of the month - I’m going to convert my points to cash [from my own money, of course!] and then put that amount of $ into my savings account.
Basically this is just a fun way to give ourselves a push to get things done ’cuz we love to see those points add up!
As for myself, as I said ... I’m converting my points to money and am saving for a maltese dog [which I desperately want someday!]

I want to wish each and every one of you a very happy and safe New Years and will see you in 2008!
Love,
Jen
