Re: 2017 New Year's Resolutions and Goals
Oh, I swear every single year I won't fall into the resolution trap and every year I do. So I might as well stop denying it.
1) To write 350,000 words this year. This includes 12 new short stories. (1 per month.)
2) To submit to at least 6 places that are taking short stories.
3) To submit to the local queer magazine regarding a column on bi issues.
4) To finally have a come to jesus meeting with my editor at the magazine I work for because I'm really tired of not getting paid.
5) To submit the novel that is almost finished (final edits ahoy).
6) To get to the gym 5 days a week/walk the dog an hour on the days I don't do that.
Really, that's where my focus is.

Re: 2017 New Year's Resolutions and Goals
I'm going to keep my resolutions simple this year or else I'll give up by mid January. Just want to put a few things down I really need to work on & one for fun.
1. I'm determined to not only stop using my credit cards for all my shopping "needs", but to pay most of them off.
2. I'm going to use my treadmill 3-4 times a week & stick to my food plan (sounds less scary than diet lol)
3. I'm going to continue having a blast going to all my Sick Puppies shows & as many concerts as I can manage (preferably without messing up goal #1)
That's all I've got. Simple. Although the first two take a lot more effort than they should

Crazy is just fine cause I like where I'm going

Re: 2017 New Year's Resolutions and Goals
Last year was my first year really getting into doing a new years resolution and sticking to it. So I'm definitely keeping up with it this year.
Last year was:
Not drinking so much (I had a real problem using it to escape my home life)
Losing weight
Hitting as many shows as possible no matter what's going on
Let it go.
The first one is a work in progress for sure. I still enjoy drinking a lot but I'm learning not to run to it when I have a problem.
I lost 22 lbs last year. Working on another 30 at least.
I went to 9 SP shows, prolly my most in a years time.
Still learning to let things go. This one is at the top of the list for this year.
The only thing I'll add I think is spending more time with my family and that includes my SP and SPWC family. I will be travelling to as many shows as I can get to.

Re: 2017 New Year's Resolutions and Goals
I wish to try as much new games as possible! I love online games, I often play at http://www.kizigamesxl.com/ . I also want to travel a lot. For example, go to China or Japan
