The New Year Is Here

I will not declare a resolution for 2012 because I will feel like I am just setting myself up for failure, since we all know more often than not those are abandoned by January. I will have challenges, and promises, though. One of my challenges is from last year. I wanted to read 100 book, but I fell short, accomplishing only 55. Well, they say if at first you don't succeed, try again, and I am trying again. Hopefully this year will be better. I won't make excuses for last year, since I know I should have made it. Another promise I will make this year is to always be in the moment. I noticed that when I was lookign at our family Christmas photos, on almost all of them I was on my iPhone doing God knows what - texting, facebooking, twittering. Looking back, it was disgusting. I will spend a lto less time online this year, because I know I spend a lot of my time, especially in the evenings, on my computer. I will limit myself to two hours at the most. I don't care if I watch television, or watch a movie, or read - those activities can be as wonderfully spent as looking at a computer screen. And yes, I do get the irony of writing these things while I am blogging. But it just has to be said...and done.
