My Resolutions are [...]]]> The key to making resolutions is making sure that they are truly attainable. I could say this year I want to get a better job, but the reality is that a goal that is never ending– that’s my goal all the time– so what’s the point of putting that on my list?

My Resolutions are simple this year:

1. Watch more old movies: I’ve become really interested in “westerns” since traveling out west… but I’m not limiting myself to westerns.

2. If it really is looking like I might be staying at my job this summer. I think I might try volunteering up at the hospital here. It’s close to work. I’m not sure what type of volunteer work I would want to do but I think if I have extra time I should use it a little more wisely.

3. By the end of the year my goal is to produce at least one new body of art work (body= 5 finished pieces).

4. This summer (as long as my knees say so) I want to participate in the Wilderness Trace 5k “Serres”. I would run 5 5ks in the course of about 4 months. My personal goal is to run a 5k under 22 minutes.

I’m sure I will think of more. These four resolutions are the big ones I think I can truly commit to.
