Instead of creating a list of new resolutions to accomplish in the coming year, I’ve decided to make a short list of resolutions I’m not going to do for the remainder of the year.

So, beginning at noon today:

• I’m not gonna do any more laundry until next year (saves water and I live alone)
• I’m not gonna eat again until next year (have not eaten healthy the past 4 weeks – sigh)
• I’m not gonna shower again until next year (saves water and I live alone)
• I’m not gonna write another blog post until next year (a major relief for many who read this blog)
• I’m not gonna take down the tree until next year (an attitude I’m gonna hang on to for the rest of the year)
• I’m not gonna drive my car until next year (saves gas and there’s some crazy drivers on the road)
• I’m not going to clean my house until next year (I live alone and feel lazy)
• I’m not gonna pay any more insurance on the car (more coffee money)
• I’m not gonna pay any more income taxes until next year (already paid enough and afraid to think about what they do with it)
• I’m not gonna party as hard as I did last year (getting too old for the wild life)

I told you it was a short list. If you can think of any feel free to add them in the comments. I’m listening. Happy New Year to you.
