New Week Resolutions

It varies year to year whether or not I make resolutions. Sometimes I'm in the mood, sometimes I'm over it. This year I only made one resolution. New Year's Resolutions are hard! I admire the self control of people who can say they are doing (or not doing) any specific thing for an entire year - regardless if it is related to diet, exercise, or anything else for that matter. Do you know how long that is? It's a pretty long time. Although there are moments when time seems to fly by, usually by the time I get to December, I can't even remember January. That being said, I've decided that instead of New Year's Resolutions I am making New Week Resolutions. This past week my New Week Resolution was to only have one sweet a day - that may be a bowl of ice cream or it may be a bite sized candy bar - but it can only be one. You better believe I couldn't do that for a whole year, but I've managed the week. Besides, next week I can have all the sweets I want. I'm all about more timely gratification for my efforts and this is a great way to get it without nearly as much torture. Also, I'll get to make so many different resolutions so I feel like I'll be accomplishing much more.
