As usual in the New Year - I don't resolve to do anything different, but I do want to make sure that everything I do has good purpose and is beneficial to myself and others. The quote above was spotted in a magazine while I was visiting my family over the holidays. I'm still mulling this one - it's powerful, I think. And the following are quotes I've posted before - I still love them. :) Happy New Year, my friends!
- Good resolutions are simply checks that men draw on a bank where they have no account. ~Oscar Wilde
- Drop the last year into the silent limbo of the past. Let it go, for it was imperfect, and thank God that it can go. ~Brooks Atkinson

Happy New Year, Lynn! My resolution is to visit your blog today. ;-)
Like that last one Lynn! Here's one for you:
“Faith is why I'm here today and faith is why I made it through.”

I run my new year resolutions on a fiscal calendar :) (not really). Have a blessed 2014!
It seems that just as I think I have found the reason I think I was born, I find another reason and another.
Happy New Year Lynn. Let's all run hand and hand into 2014 with smiles and great expectations of good things happening.
happy new year agin!
may you and yours enjoy peace, health and happiness in the coming year!
xoxo
Hilary -
Exactly - I am going to do just that.
Cheers and happy New Year!
FB -
An awesome resolution. :)
lg -
So true - I love that.
Sage -
Ha! Same to you, my friend.
Granny Annie -
Same here really - although my goal to work for non-profit never seems to come together. I'm thinking that one isn't meant to be. Or maybe the unpaid work I do for non-profits fills the bill - it's certainly rewarding.
Yes - hand in hand. I love that. Hugs! Happy New Year, my friend.
Betty -
Same to you! Hugs!
Happy New Year. No resolutions here. I fail often enough already and don't need to set up another reason for self flagellation.
I plan to keep on muddling through, trying to tread lightly in an ecological and emotional sense (do as little harm, and as much good as possible).
Haha I am definitely starting my new year's goal of eating better on the 2nd! Today is still a holiday in my mind!
These are great! I love Mark Twain. Happy New Year.
Three things a person has to look forward to in life
1. They is indescribable
2. They know everything
3. They can’t remember anything
Good intention never feeds the family or pays the rent.
Yesterday is gone, tomorrow will never gets here, right now won’t last.
Have a great New Year
I am wishing you a wonderful new year. sandie
Hope 2014 is full of many wonderful surprises for you!
Thanks for being such a positive input into my internet time!
Love the Twain Quote- Still trying to find out why!
Happy New Year, Lynn!
I never make New Year resolutions.
However,I did start reading "Cross Creek" again last night. And I have made the resolve to stay as cool as possible these next couple of days, and to drink lots of water (I always drink lots of water, anyway, so there's nothing new there) because we're in for heatwave...it's already started.
If anyone knocks on my door today...they'll just have to wait until I don some gear. My chosen attire today is a bra and panties (my two furry, four-legged mates don't mind - they're envious, actually). It's either wait until I clothe myself or I'll just stay quiet and ignore their knocking.
I'll probably do the latter! ;)
A Very Happy New Year To You, My Dear. I don't make resolutions. I don't even think about what's to come or what has been.....Every year has it's GOOD parts and it's difficult and/or painful BAD parts---and it was ever thus.....So...one day at a time----do the best you can and live in the moment as much as you can, and enjoy as much as you can. That's about it, for me.
Elephant's Child -
I kind of do the muddling through thing, too. :)
Joanne -
I am eating better, too, but did finish the Christmas candy over the weekend.
Riot Kitty -
Mark Twain was a wise man, for sure.
Ellis -
Oh my! Happy New Year to you, too, my friend!
Sandie -
Happy New Year, to you, too!
Snaggle -
I'm still trying to find out why, too. And thank you for being such a faithful visitor!
Talon -
Same to you, my friend.
Lee -
It's so difficult to imagine hot weather like that when we will not get out of the 20s today. So cold!
I think ignoring the knocking is a good plan. :)
