I'll ask. any NY resolutions?

I may as well type it out before Quitters Day comes around a week or so. hahah..

mine is not that daunting. I simply want to develop way more flexibility. not ballet dancer "flexy"...just better.

two MTB crashes, and one motorcycle crash really tightened my right hip and leg in general.

I am going to stretch daily. there I said it.

Flexibility is a good one...one I often think about working on and fail to do. Stretching daily is good practice (not that I do it!). Other than that, the usual suspects....drink a little less, workout a little more, lose a few lbs, etc....

Lose weight - naw.
Exercise more - nope
Pick up a new hobby - I can’t keep up with the ones I already have.
Offload more of my possessions- definitely
Finish the Speedster - YES

Nope, nada, nothing, zip - not even a stretch. I'll just be happy to remain upright and active, especially since I just got a call from a cousin telling me another cousin had died.

Doing better at controlling my ego rather than reacting to it.

Not really resolutions, exactly.

I think I've gained about 10# in the past month. I'll be taking that off. Most of the rest of the stuff is just to keep doing what I've been doing, maybe do it a little better.

Mine is to not over think situations. Just to be happy and to care a little less about situations i can't change.

Didn't we just do this last year?
Never wait until New Year to do something that needs doing right now.

I started a diet the week before NYE, does that count? I’ve gained about 20 lbs over the last 2.5 years of travel and it’s gotta go!

I lost 30 pounds last year. Thanksgiving and Christmas goodies put 5 pounds back on, but I plan to continue to loose weight, maybe another 20 pounds.

I already had to take a link out of my watch, and to buy smaller jeans.

I just bought a new property to turn into an Airbnb. My goal is to get all of the minor repairs done and remodel the kitchen by March 31st. I will accomplish this by creating a schedule. Unlike the last on that took me a year to get one month's work done.

One more:

I will get my taxes done on time and before I do anyone else's. Last year I did about 20 tax returns for various employees at my company (no charge of course) and then I was late on my own and had to pay a penalty. Not this year!

Rookie! I’m just about to finish my kitchen remodel... pulled the plumbing permit in 2016 and bought wall tile in 2019. I started work right after I pulled The permit.

No, I’m not married, why do you ask?
