Hope List?

It seems to be universal -

New Year's resolutions never work

For anyone.

Well, anyone I've ever heard of anyway.

What about a New Year's 'Hope List' then?

As in:

"This year, I hope to . . ."

Wouldn't that take the pressure off?

What would I hope to do

or change?

"Get organized"

would be my headlines.

I never thought I would still be trying for that

at my advanced stage of life!

The guy who said:

"Concentrate on your strengths, not your weaknesses."

Obviously never had to run a home.

Let's see:

Maybe make a menu for the week

and shop for it, once.

Maybe join a pilates class

Or set aside one full day a week to paint.

Invite new people to dinner at least once a month.

And learn some new recipes. . .

Well, one can always hope!

I will revisit this post later in the year to see how I'm doing.

If I remember, that is.
