Happy New Year to all my sistas. I have to ask how many of us made NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTION....OK OK, I'll be the first to admit that I made my own....do you want to know what it is?....well my New Year's Resolution is NOT TO MAKE ANY "NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTION".....I mean lets be real....how long do we keep them anyway

Mine is to enjoy my family and not place work first. I tried not having one last year. I need goals!!!! lol

My New Year's Resolution is to enjoy all of the blessings that God has bestowed upon me and to always remember to "in all thy ways acknowledge Him & He shall direct your paths". (not so easily done, but with practice....) I am about to embark on a major event in my life, as long as I remember my New Year's Resolution I will be taking care to enjoy all that is wonderful in my life! Happy New Year Ladies!!!

It's not my New Year's Resolution, but it's the most common one made: to lose weight (to make sure I fit in that wedding dress) Need to do it now, so I don't have to worry about it later.

Same here Charley, Not one resolution! LOL

Niquey great minds think alike.....I really do not want to be bothered with having to remember what I promised to do. I am going with the flow.

See, I'm with Rosetta, there's something about the word "resolution" that makes me cringe...I prefer to think of them as goals. Just like I'm allergic to the word diet, I prefer "lifestyle modification"...lol.
So my goals are to not sweat the small stuff (esp. those lil nitpicky issues w/DH) because life is far too short, to stop standing in my own way and definitely adopt a healthier lifestyle...eating better, exercising more and managing stress better.

Exactly one month after making them.....how many of us (besides me and Niquey cause we didn't make any) have actually kept them...come on tell the truth and shame the devil

I'm still keeping mine, because my New Year's Resolution is a change in thinking....so far so good!

Very good Rony....nah lets hear from the rest of you

Where ya at ladies, inquiring minds want to know!

I am proud to say that I HAVE KEPPT MAY RESOLUTION...ya'll don't get jealous

Fifth month....are they broken yet????

No, I didn't keep mine - which was to stop smoking.

To tell you the truth, I have been challenged a lot in an effort to keep mine. It hasn't been easy. Mine was to acknowledge God in all everything.... I have found myself worrying when I should be trusting God.

Girl I ain't worried at all...the devil is very busy and if you know how much of us christians go thru this same problem you would be surprised...just hold on and don't give up....go listen to some Donnie McClurkin

Girl, I wish! :-( I'm really going to quit. I started when I was 17 and didn't think I would get hooked. Bossie gets on me about smoking.

I kept mine! My resolution was;
not to say things that I don't mean
not to be spiteful
not to take things so personal:
This is just with the hubby.

LOL! That is great. So what is the Resolution for the rest of the world, since you already got the 1 for the hubby?

Askalot that would truly be a blessing. I don't know Jersey that well so you have to help a sista out as far as locations.

I certainly will. I don't know much about Hudson County. But, I know Union County like the back of my hand. lol
