This year I decided to do something a little different and set some goals I want to achieve before March, that way I don't procrastinate and have that mindset that I have the entire year to get the stuff done. I'll hopefully add on more goals throughout the year. I also tried to keep them simple because in many ways I still have an adolescent mind that needs to adjust to the bigger changes. haha Good luck again! :)Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00948164424430467094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55282503134540185.post-85488032900079112612012-01-09T11:18:54.659-08:002012-01-09T11:18:54.659-08:00I know the feeling of getting distracted in the in...I know the feeling of getting distracted in the internet.

I'm glad I did-- much less time on the computer that way. <br /><br />Mieneke-- I've noticed a lot of people have resolved to read 100+ books this year but I'm not sure I can consistently read an average of two books a week. Though I do need to try to get more of that TBR pile done...<br /><br />Jamie-- Thanks! I always tell myself that I'm going to be a better blogger, but I'm getting to the point where I'm just happy if I get regular posts up. <br /><br />Michael-- Wow! That's a lot. I'm at my goal weight so I just want to maintain now. I started with Weight Watchers and that helped a lot. But it wasn't until I switched to a more low carb diet (the Primal diet) that I found I could get rid of those last ten pounds and not starve all the time. I have arthritis and switched to the diet for that reason (research is starting to show that processed foods are inflammatory) and it has helped a lot with my joint pain and mobility. The happy side-effect is the added weight loss and satiety. <br /><br />Elfy-- I've been thinking of actually switching to my iPad for writing. I have a Bluetooth keyboard and a word app that makes it easy to use. Because of the way it's set up it's harder to surf because I can't open windows in the background-- which is what causes all my problems right now. Sometimes I need the Internet to look stuff up (blogging primarily) but I think it would work when I stick to fiction writing.SQThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04251030404220909306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55282503134540185.post-51286710393716761842012-01-03T15:58:27.635-08:002012-01-03T15:58:27.635-08:00I haven't actually made any resolutions this y...I haven't actually made any resolutions this year. I did resolve to try and write fiction every day, but I started doing that in November and I've managed to keep it. One thing you could try with the blog post is write it before logging onto the 'net, try and do it on a machine that isn't even connected if you can. Once it's written you can tidy it up using material you need online. Just a suggestion.Elfyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09955473789404631382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55282503134540185.post-80010558087361777792012-01-03T12:30:41.136-08:002012-01-03T12:30:41.136-08:00I struggle with weight too SQT. A few years ago I ...I struggle with weight too SQT. A few years ago I really got on it and lost 170 pounds. I've let a good 80 pounds of that creep back on but have slowed it down by exercising and eating right. But the fact is, in order to get down to a healthy weight, I should try harder and cut even further into the calories.<br /><br />Once I get to a manageable weight (maybe 10 pounds over my ideal weight) I will probably get liposuction simply to get rid of the fat cells for good. My friend who is a doctor said that our fat cells stay with us like open warehouses ready to shore up when calories increase, which is why once fat people put on weight so easily.<br /><br />Anyway, we can both get through this. It's a good resolution to have and we'll both be looking good later in 2012.Michael Offutt, Phantom Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10557969104886174930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55282503134540185.post-40017864104268809502012-01-03T07:28:50.030-08:002012-01-03T07:28:50.030-08:00Those are some great resolutions, and I wish you t...Those are some great resolutions, and I wish you the very best of luck in achieving them.<br /><br />My resolution for this year was to stop wasting time, and blogwise it is to get a little more serious with the blogging.Jamie Gibbshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15168603412367448706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55282503134540185.post-48714972589009462582012-01-03T05:37:31.770-08:002012-01-03T05:37:31.770-08:00Great resolutions - if I hadn't resolved not t...Great resolutions - if I hadn't resolved not to make any resolutions, I'd certainly steal the first two!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02998502637742703857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55282503134540185.post-91242504607825786352012-01-03T03:35:49.065-08:002012-01-03T03:35:49.065-08:00Good luck with your resolutions!

The others are reading 100 books, dent my TBR-pile, catch up on my backlog of unreviewed books and to read more historical fiction, SF and YA.<br /><br />I hope we both succeed :-)Mieneke van der Salmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04782771945227479913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55282503134540185.post-75804597280045930552012-01-03T03:08:05.651-08:002012-01-03T03:08:05.651-08:00Good luck!!!
