resolve

i never make new year's resolutions for real. i mean, when i was a heavy smoker, i always resolved to quit---which resulted in my smoking 3 days' worth of cigarettes on december 31st and making it until january 2nd without another one---but only b/c i spent all day on jan 1st in bed.

i am hesitant to make any resolutions this year b/c my life is pretty damn good and i would not change anything other than maybe i would like to have a bit more money. but i don't want to work or budget for it---and i supposed you cannot resolve just to have your boss pay you more.

i do think i am going to try to be better about my diabetes. i am so bad about exercising and watching my carb intake now----but there is no specific resolution i want to make there. i think being a special ed teacher made me feel that goals have to be measurable and data-driven with a time-frame. so no resolutions.

i really like the way things are---i know this is a drastic change from me last blog post. they do not call it bipolar for nothing :)
