New Year’s Resolutions

Hoping I can keep some of these:

1. Lose weight. Isn’t this everyone’s favorite??? Well, if I don’t want to have to buy an entire new wardrobe, I’d better get serious!

2. Find a new home for Coconut, my son’s white mouse. Samantha is proabably allergic to him. Her. It. I don’t know how to determine the sex. He was a mistaken purchase from the time period when he had a wierd frog, an African pygmie frog?? Anyway, the thing lived in a sess pool and ate live crickets and he wanted to feed him a baby mouse, called a pinkie. No, I did NOT know about this. So he came back from the pet supply store with a little cardboard box that he said he was going to feed to the frog. My innocent animal protection kicked in and I insisted on checking it out first. And peeking out at me was this adorable little white mouse! So cute! And friendly! I declared a no-mouse-feeding zone for that ugly frog, and ran right out and bought a habitat for the mouse, complete with exercise wheel. Unfortuneately, ever since the mouse moved in my daughter has had a perpetual cold, even resorting to taking hayfever pills.

3. Exercise more. This would be so I don’t collapse, weezing, on the short walk up the street from my kids’ school, one block away!

4. Play more games with my kids. Jeff’s mom got them Battleship Live for Christmas and that thing is really a lot of fun to play! We need more electronics around here!

5. Send out Christmas cards in November. I got so overwhelmed this year that I was addressing and mailing right up til the Friday before the event. That’s stressful!

6. Get divorced. (Self-explanitory….)

7. Get remarried! (see above)

8. Take one vacation with my kids, one vacation with Jeff.

9. Win the lottery.

10. Live happily ever after.

There! That wasn’t too hard!
