Resolutions for the New Year

Has everyone committed to any new resolutions for 2008? I made about 12 for 2007 and kept exactly one of them. This year, in order to set myself up for success, I have only two resolutions and one of them only counts for the next three months.

Resolution #1: Ski at least once a week.

I know this one sounds like cake, but it's not. I dig myself into a lazy slump sometimes and it gets to the point where even something as awesome as skiing doesn't sound appealing. But then when I actually get out there, I'm really glad I did. In addition, there always seems to be something else to do, whether work or household chores or television. So I am resolving to "force" myself to ski once a week. Household chores be damned.

Resolution #2: Eat vegetables with every meal, and maybe sometimes a fruit.

Again, this one appears relatively easy to the innocent bystander, but believe me, it's not. Most of the time when I get home from work all I want to eat is a large slice of cheesy pizza, or some other chub inducing fat/carb combo. How hard should it be to steam a bag of frozen veggies?

Great resolutions Abby! At least you've set some. I haven't set any resoltions yet but I like your vegetable one, maybe I'll try that one. I like your other one but it's kind of hard to find enough snow in HI and SD. Good luck!
