Normally, my goals are weight loss oriented, but I am actually comfortable with where I am. I managed to completely change my eating habits and lack of working out. So, for the first time, I can leave that off the list of resolutions.

My resolution will be to spend more time with the nephews. I don't get to see them nearly as much as I would like, what with them living near Windsor and me in Ottawa. I need to plan more trips out that way. I want to have a good relationship with them, I don't want to be the aunt that appears once a year, gives them some Christmas gifts and then disappears.

Also, I would like to start reading more often. I have a pile of books that I have been meaning to read for awhile so I would like to get around to doing that and finding more to add to that pile.

I would like to spend less time on the computer. It's really starting to take a toll on my eyes, I think.

That's about it.

At once, or over the course of the year?

Well, I ran five half-marathons last year and I have some sort of nebulous goal to get my practice runs up to three hours . . . . . which should also get me into range of a marathon as well.

I ran one about 13 years ago but had some knee issues. Lately, it's all starting to come back and I'd like to extend it out a bit more in 2008 if I can. I'll focus on the training run times as the goal, with a marathon as a potential outcome of that.

Kiliminjaro beckons as well but that might be early 2009. One of those things you'd like to check off before you die . . . . and since I'm closer to dying than a lot of you on this board I'd better get after it!!!

Take five weeks off this year. Sounds like a strange goal but for the self-employed, scheduling and achieving time off isn't as easy as it sounds. There's always something to do.

Lots of business goal setting in the last month, but I'll keep those to myself.

I want to get back into smoking weed - I got the entire catalogue of Entourage, and weed has peaked my interest again. PM me if you can hook me up!

I stupidly decided to start early, and had my last smoke at midnight last night. I'm in that stage right now where I'm having a cup of coffee, and my brain is saying, where the nicotine, go beat down the neighbour.

Its going to be a tough 5 days.

I resolve not to change at all, despite the pressure put on me to do so.

I will graduate. Then I will spend the first summer holiday since I got out of the army and just do nothing.
