Resolutions.
They aren’t so bad….are they?
New year….
New start….
Just pass Go……at least until February. Heh.
Or maybe you don’t like to resolve, but prefer to live with purpose all year-long. Intent on succeeding at many goals and aspirations.
I suppose I am in-between both of those. I do believe in goals throughout the year, but I, also, kicked my worst habit by a New Year’s resolution (smoking in 2006).
This year, my missions are simple. Thanks for that word Suzicate .
Play more…
Laugh more…
Celebrate the little things…
And the big things…
Be silly…
And never forget how much your family loves you…
See? That’s not so bad.
Hope you all had a fabulous New Year!

Living, Loving, Laughing.... 
I resolve to never make a resolution again. You know me, I pick a word that served as my guidepost throughout the year. Last year it was fitness, this year it’s flexibility.

Yes, and that has worked well for you! I hoping my Revive word does for me too. 🙂

Your resolutions are the best – the kind that make the most sense, if one is actually going to make resolutions. Some days I awaken with resolve – some days that resolve is just to let the day happen the way it chooses. Great photos – which is usual for you.

I guess the saying is to live the resolution all year and not just in January, right?

For me, each new year, I try to stay conscious of what’s on in my life because every year my life seems to have a theme. So I just follow that theme and sorta embrace it. Last year it was “acceptance.”
As always, Angelia, your photos BLOW ME AWAY!!!!
The first one if the monopoly board is STELLAR! Your photos always have such a crisp and clean look to them.
Brava, dear lady!

Thanks Ron! I know exactly what you mean. Last year, my word didn’t work out so well. I chose the word REVIVE this year. Getting back to some spark I lost. 🙂

What great resolutions! (And when did there get to be a plane piece in Monopoly? Clearly I’m behind the game times!)

This is the “newest” Monopoly game. It has credit cards instead of cash. And all the player pieces are different. I love the plane!
