1) Water is my beverage of choice. A cup of decaffeinated coffee or tea, the occasional glass of milk or fresh juice, fine. But other than that, no soda, no alcohol, no junky "juice."

2) I'm going to send monthly letters to friends who are far away. Not emails, but actual cards and letters.

3) I will be in bed, with the lights out, by 10 pm. I will make every effort to get a full 8 hours of sleep a night. What happens once the lights are off may vary, depending on who all is in bed. I'm just saying.

4) I will take advantage of my son's fruit and veggie challenge to help my entire family eat a healthier diet.

5) Fast food is pretty much banned, except when we are travelling and our options are limited. If we want hamburgers, I'll buy the meat and make the burgers at home.

6) I'm going to write daily. Here, or somewhere else, but I need to re-establish the habit.

7) I'm going to embrace a more disciplined approach to housework. I'm going to lead by example, rather than whine and then step over clutter.

8) I'm going to take pride in my appearance, and stop acting like I'm invisible to the outside world.

9) I will take the time for reflection and meditation (or make it, or steal it, or whatever needs to happen.)

10) I'm going to dance.
