New Years Resolutions…

Posted under How I See It

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I vow to sit and watch the entire “Girls Gone Wild” series in one sitting.
(I need to make sure my daughters are not participating, really!)

 

I vow to spend more quality time with my family.

(Which means less time blogging.  Uh oh!)

 

I vow to get the gym more often this year.

(Gravity is not going to get the best of me)

 

I promise to no longer spend foolishly on cheap wine and cigars.

(Just cheap women, just kidding, my wife is not cheap)

 

I resolve to backup my blog often and locally.

(Because rebuilding your site is a pain in the ass)

 

I swear to support Weaslmomma in her pursuits of the perfect margarita.

(And that her hubby finds work soon)

 

I resolve to continue following M at Movin Down the Road and her new guy in her life.

(Not like I’m trying to stalk her or anything, honest!)

 

I promise to follow KT as she continues rebuilding her relationship with her husband.

(As someone who’s been there, I am in complete awe and inspired)

 

I’m determined to continue reading about Anne at Under the Red Tin Roof.  I enjoy her storytelling.

(I really need to work on my storytelling)

 

I promise to hit up Oh Captain for some poker help. 

(I’ve got some poker buddies that need to be taken down a notch or two)

 

I will follow in the mold of Teri who seems to take her running very seriously.

(I on the other hand don’t take anything too seriously)

 

I pledge to follow in the footsteps of Worried Dad and be more concerned with the world around us.

(But I’m still leaving the blog worrying to him)

 

I swear to continue my following of NukeDad and his hilarious family.

(Because we all need a good laugh at the end/beginning of the day)

 

I promise to follow Cocotte who also has three teenagers in her to deal with.

(She knows how I’m feeling…)

 

I will continue to follow Matt at MattDaddy as we approach baseball season in a few months.

(The Halos need to avoid the BoSox in the playoffs this year, damn it!)

 

I will continue to read Tara because she writes with insightfulness and charm.

(I on the other hand am lucky to string two sentences together)

 

I will continue to tag along with Mrs. 4444 at Half Past Kissin Time and her writings of school and her students.

(I married a teacher and need all the help I can understanding how they think!)

 

I will follow Debbie and I Overcooked the Family and marvel at her delicious recipes.

(We’d starve to death; I need all the help I can in the kitchen since the wife is still on crutches)

 

I will continue to reading Tom at Being Michael’s Daddy and marvel at fatherhood a second time around.

(And maybe send him sympathy card)

 

I will undertake the task of following Joe and Above Average Joe as he continues to be a great single father to his two kids.

(Been there, done that and I admire those parents without spouses who take their responsibility as parents seriously)

 

I resolve to reconnect with many of you that I have lost in my rebuilding. 

(Please be patient as I try to find and reconnect with you)

 

Happy New Year…
