Happy New Year!

There, I said it. Don't ask again. New Year's is my least favourite holiday of the year. It basically encompasses my least favourite things to do: go out, drink, be loud. Kiss strangers?

Perusing the ads (much smaller pile delivered than before Christmas!), I came across features for stop smoking products, weight loss products... it's just so cliche. Fight the power, everyone! Don't make the typical promises. Be your own person!

In the spirit of the season, I have some resolutions (hey - everybody's doing it!):

1. Stop being such a slob. In terms of implementation, it means finding a spot for everything in the house, and keeping everything there. Don't just dump and run!
2. Watch less TV. I'm not sure how this will pan out given a newborn on the way, but the TV doesn't have to be on all evening, does it?
3. Do more with The Kid. Again, not sure how this will pan out with a newborn, but we need more activities in our lives. Painting, drawing, heck, even cleaning up together - we can do more.
4. Less procrastination. When there is no deadline, nothing gets done. I need to work on this, I'm still not exactly sure how. Lacking a plan, this is a crappy resolution, but I'm throwing it out there.

We'll see how it goes. If I have an easy baby, this will be easier. If I have another like my first, it's going to be a very tiring year, and it will be more about survival than tidying up my piles.
