Like the rest of us, I am thinking about resolutions today. 2008 is going to hold a lot of change for my family - a move, new jobs, and a new city among them. Because of the impending changes and my past resolution success record, I am going to start off making resolutions for what I am going to tackle for the next 13 days until I begin my new gig and my weekly commute to Washington, D.C. Every day for the next 13 days, I commit to:
a) Spend 30 quality minutes interacting with the baby with no distractions
b) Blog (this one does not count - a little too meta)
c) Work out
d) Take a family walk - fresh air is good for everyone
e) NOT eat French Fries or any other member of the tasty friend potato class - including tots, browns, and the wedge. If my life was a cartoon, my arch nemesis would be a perfectly crisped golden brown french fry wearing a black hat and cape who lurks around every corner, waiting to tempt me to the dark side.
f) Not feel guilty about everything else I am not working on while I’m trying to be diligent about the above.
Happy New Year everyone! I wish you luck thinking about your own resolutions - be they new year or new fortnight.

Personally, I’ve chosen to focus not on resolutions, but on sharing my 2008 task list:

That said, I love the fried goods point!
(By the way, love the blog title!)
VeeDub, give Alexa’s OVEN REDS a try whenever you have a hankerin’ for some fried potatoes. These are oh-so tasty baked potato wedges. All-Natural. Low-Fat. High-Taste.
John - I’m not sure that a substitute could satisfy the savage beast on this one, but I will give it a shot after my 13 day resolution has expired.
Jake - Great post. I hope we all have a Kick Ass year!
No guilt, ever.
You and Fletch can work out together, “mom multi-task”. (seriouusly though, you can do all kinds of exercies on the floor together.)
