Default New Year's Resolutions?

It's that time of year, and some people still make these. Anyone here trying anything for 2018?

I generally haven't done much, but I decided to try a couple things this year. One is fitness as I was given the green light before Christmas to do things again after a surgery and figured I might as well wait until now. I'm looking forward to that actually as I've always been active.

The other is more of a personal thing. I'm just trying not to complain about things. I don't think I complain about things very often, so this might be somewhat minor, but certain topics get me rolling. It probably means a lot less posting in the politics threads around here and such though!

I don't have any 'new' resolutions, per se...but my continuing one to keep a watchful eye on my weight and health remains. I'm learning more about healthy eating in general, and have finally started being able to get a realistic grip on portion size. I'm seeing positive results (finally) which is encouraging and a good way to go into the new year.

Live life without worrying about small things or what people think about me or what I do. I've practiced it off and on over the past year and now it's time to do it full time!

Smarten up financially. I've been treating my finances like I was a child since my separation, and Ive been squandering my income in silly ways.

To stop swearing. I did it for about a year, 5 years ago. There's no reason I need to swear.

I'm going to stop hanging around mortals. Friends, acquaintances and pets must now exhibit at least one super power and a supernatural aversion to death.

Track your water intake? Sprung a leak or something?

FYI, part of my job includes helping towns manage their water intakes.

Try not to worry about the small things. Try not to worry as much about the bigger things. And generally try and be happier/more positive in life in general.
