 Making Resolutions

Do you make New Year's Resolutions? I rarely make them for the New Year but occasional make them for my birthday. This year, however, I am contemplating some creative resolutions....because I don't have ANY bad habits or vices that I need to change. Really, just ask my husband, he will tell you that I am PERFECT! 

OK, maybe I will read some of these articles about making resolutions. I could probably improve something about myself.

Let's start with a little history of the celebration and traditions around the world

43Things is a website dedicated to helping you set and track your resolutions. They even have an iPhone app.
The New Year's Resolution Blog is also there to help you make and reach your goals

Sites with resolutions:
Our US tax dollars are at work....why does the US Government track popular New Year's resolutions?
About.com also has a list of their top 10 resolutions
New Year Festival has a list of funny resolutions and some resolutions that you might even want to keep. Some of my favorites are:
  • I will stop sending e-mails to my wife (husband).
  • I resolve to work with neglected children -- my own. 
  • I will think of a password other than "password."


Snopes has a list of New Year's superstitions so you can make sure your year starts off right

Before you go out on New Year's Eve, make sure that you know all of the words to
Auld Lang Syne. You also might need some new jokes for the party.

Don't want to leave your home? No problem, just get on the internet and watch celebrations around the world on the EarthCam.
Epicurious has a nice article about all of the lucky foods that you should eat on New Year's Day. Of course the traditional New Year's Eve "food" is champagne so you might also need one of these hangover cures from Just a Guy Thing or do some planning for your hangover with this article from So You Wanna.

Do you make resolutions? If so, what are your resolutions for 2010?  Share yours with us in the forum.
