New Years Resolutions

I started thinking....what should my New Years Resolutions be this year? I came up with the old standbys - Lose weight, exercise more ( although I have already been doing those 2) I need to continue to do them, get my house organized clean my car. But then I thought....those are all about ME. What about things I can do in 2008 for others or to improve my relationships with others? So this is what I came up with.....

Resolutions for 2008

- to spend more time playing with my daughter and enjoying her before it is too late

- to listen more and talk less

- to be more purposeful in my relationships

- to reach out more and initiate interactions rather than waiting for people to come to me

- to take people at face value

- to plug in somewhere I can serve others

- control my temper and my words so that my daughter learns to be a more gentle spirit than her Mother

- judge less and forgive more

Have you thought about it yet???

What will your resolutions be for 2008???

Why???

So I went to the movies last night. I really wanted to see The Great Debaters...I think it looks good. But instead I was talked into seeing Alien vs. Predator. Don't get me wrong...I actually like Alien 1 and 2. So. it wasn't that hard to convince me.... Anyway, when we got there my first clue to HOW bad this movie was going to be was the size of the theater they put it in. I was at a huge theater so I thought it would be a big room. Ummmmm ...no. It was in the smallest theater ever!!! It maybe held 100 people, if that. So, I started getting a little worried..but then I thought, "how bad can it be?" The answer?.......REALLY BAD!!!! There was NO plot. I still don't know what it was about. All I could gather was that the Alien and the Predator basically both come to Earth to fight each other and kill anyone that kinda gets in their way. Usually though, even these kind of movies draw the line at killing children. NOT THIS ONE!!! They even kill babies in the nursery at a hospital. Why do people pay to see this stuff????? I can't believe I did!!!
