Yes, to stop drinking pop.

2. Did you keep your resolutions?

Actually yes I did. Actually we did, but Corkey didn't realize we were doing it as a new years resolution:|

3. What is the biggest/most important lesson you learned over the last year?

That being happy sometimes means losing people in your life. Unfortunately for them I learned I can live without them. (my parents)

4. What is one thing that you meant to accomplish but didn't?
5. What was the biggest change in your life over the last year?

My health, I have never fully recovered from the hematoma I had 2.5 years ago. Being down and out for 5.5 weeks and not being able to do anything during that time, really hurt me. It seems like every time I start getting back to normal, something else hits me. Like whooping cough all summer.

6. Do you like cheese? the kind you eat, but not the kind you cut

7. Did anyone new come into your life over the last year?

New friends moved into the area (lionpaw) and we all just totally hit it off!!!!

8. What are you most thankful for over the last year?

Corkey
the fact that I have a good job
new hobbies
new learning
that my parents seem to be coming around and acting normal (for them:))
this web site (do I get bonus points?)
new friends

9. Will you make any New Year's resolutions this year? If yes, what?

YES (Corkey pay attention, he thought we were just talking not making resolutions the last few years:|)
to keep not eating at fast food resturants (we have slipped on this one), keep not drinking pop, keep working on cutting out the HF corn syrup and trans fats, and new we are adding to cut out the salt and for me eat less butter.


10. Name one new thing that you plan to do in 2011.

I am going to learn to knit cables
learn to knit socks
learn to knit mittens
learn to knit a hat
I know that is 4 but they are all knitting:)

Your Year in Review

1. Did you make any New Year's resolutions last year? If so, what?
To actually LIVE my life and not be so afraid.

2. Did you keep your resolutions?
Yes I have - I am living and while I am still afraid, I am doing it.

3. What is the biggest/most important lesson you learned over the last year?
That life is far too short to not allow love in your life. That it is counterproductive to continually fight to protect yourself. That it is okay to be vulnerable.

4. What is one thing that you meant to accomplish but didn't?
Lose the weight that I have gained.

5. What was the biggest change in your life over the last year?
Learning to be self-sufficient. Going to the BFP Reunion - this was HUGE for me. It forced me to stop hiding behind the security of my screen and meet people.

6. Do you like cheese?
Love Love Love Cheese!

7. Did anyone new come into your life over the last year?
Many new people have come into my life... Some from last year who are still here this year, but I am closer to them and have shared new things about myself with them and have learned new things about them - so in a sense, even those from previous years are new.

8. What are you most thankful for over the last year?
The people who continue to love me, even though I am constantly screwing things up! Sometimes, I am just amazed at how blessed I am for the people in my life. I don't always feel I am so deserving... Yet, thankful I am. And most, I am thankful that I have three brilliant and beautiful sons. That I raised these boys and they are high functioning (lol). I am thankful I didn't screw them up so much.

9. Will you make any New Year's resolutions this year? If yes, what?
No, because I am tired of letting myself down.

10. Name one new thing that you plan to do in 2011.
Maybe I will cook in 2011. I have a crock pot - Maybe I will use it. Serious... I am not domestic, and I feel like there is something lacking with me. So, if I could prepare meals for my family, then that would be a new experience for all of us.

Daywalker 12-31-2010 08:44 PM

1. Did you make any New Year's resolutions last year? If so, what?
Nope.

:coffee:

2. Did you keep your resolutions? :weedsmoke:

3. What is the biggest/most important lesson you learned over the last year?
The sky is higher than I thought it would be,
the ground is closer to my feet than it ever has been before.



4. What is one thing that you meant to accomplish but didn't?
:| Wow, I just vapor locked on this one...:|

5. What was the biggest change in your life over the last year?

Moving into this Groovy house of ours,
across the street from my big sister.
:koolaid:

6. Do you like cheese?
Sometimes, I wanna be cheese.

:skateboard:

7. Did anyone new come into your life over the last year?
Yes.
There are people I wanna smother with love.
Then, there are the people, I just wanna smother.

:|

8. What are you most thankful for over the last year?

Everything really.
:thinking:


My Niece is alive today, when just last week she
said goodbye to the world as they put her into a Coma.

Divine Interventions, true Christmas Miracles...whatever you wanna
call it...she is still here with us today and last update I got ~ she
opened her eyes and is fussing about the breathing tube
n wants it out ~ she received her 3rd :heartbeat: Transplant!

:rainsing:

Of course my health is not in a good mood, I gotta deal with bullshit red
tape all the time, I'm bored...and tired. I've had Cartoon feet,
Psychedelic feet and cake feet...got sliced
twice...and so on and so on.



But
:|

I've never been happier in my life.
:koolaid:

So it must mean that outside of the icky zone, things are
like a fucking field of tulips, therefore one should
tip-toe through them with yer groovy on high
.
:flyaway:
9. Will you make any New Year's resolutions this year? If yes, what?
Nope.
:coffee:


10. Name one new thing that you plan to do in 2011.
Get Married to the Mrs. Day...perhaps in October,
perhaps in Arkansas in th
e South.
:rose:
Smother my loved ones even more.
Cuz they spin me right round baby, like a record.
Watch out, here I come.

Make them all move into a Commune together.
:awww:
A Bountiful Harvest is on the Horizon,
already got clones 'on order'.
:cannabis:

To start working out and get healthier, to move to Texas, and to continue that elusive search for happiness.

2. Did you keep your resolutions?

Well, I'm in Austin now, I've started....stopped....started....stopped....and started....and slowed down with the working out, but I have gained health benefits and dropped a bit of weight, so I do consider that a victory. I've had happiness in and out of my grasp for a while now. I consider that a resolution kept, as happiness tends to be fleeting.

3. What is the biggest/most important lesson you learned over the last year?

I'm still ruminating on that. 2010 has been a very educational year in many aspects.

4. What is one thing that you meant to accomplish but didn't?

I haven't won the lottery. Yet.

5. What was the biggest change in your life over the last year?

Winter in Washington state versus winter in Austin, Texas.

6. Do you like cheese? Yes.

7. Did anyone new come into your life over the last year?

Yes, many lovely people that I'm fond of. One in particular that I just can't seem to shake also.

8. What are you most thankful for over the last year?

Generosity of others.

9. Will you make any New Year's resolutions this year? If yes, what?

Yep. I've got fitness goals that I'm going to reach as well as writing more and improving the quality of my life.

10. Name one new thing that you plan to do in 2011.

Organic and I are going to move into a larger place.

I lost about 7 i think. Well, better than nothing.

3. What is the biggest/most important lesson you learned over the last year?
That life is short. This time last year I was about to receive a call from my brother to wish me a Happy New Year. He always called me no matter what we were doing in our lives. This year there will be no phone call. Life is precious and i plan on treating it that way.

4. What is one thing that you meant to accomplish but didn't?
Win the lottery and retire to the pacific and give away thousands to charities and friends and never have to work again. Oh and buy all the shoes that are cute this side of the Mississippi.

5. What was the biggest change in your life over the last year?
Loosing my best friend, my rock, my brother. Knowing that i am all my mom has now. Reminding myself of my roots and how i belong in this state in the south. Not trying to flee anymore.

6. Do you like cheese?
Only on Tuesdays when the moon is in an eclipse.


7. Did anyone new come into your life over the last year?
Yes I have met some AMAZING friends this year. OMG i just wish i had met them years ago. We have a lot of years to catch up on. I also met someone very handsome and strong who put a spring back in my step.....who i laugh and cry with for hours....someone who don't take my crap...someone who adores me just the way i am, as i do Him. Life is good.

8. What are you most thankful for over the last year?
That I made it another year i suppose. I am thankful for so many many things. Family, friends, job, health, my puppy, my home, my way of seeing the world.

I want to be more appreciative of those around me and cherish them more and above that, i want them to know how i feel.

I don't make "new years resolutions" Any given day, if I need to or want to do something different, I do.


2. Did you keep your resolutions?
Most of them, yes.

3. What is the biggest/most important lesson you learned over the last year?
Sometimes life is about the ins and outs. (stop it, pervs!) Sometimes people walk into your life, others walk out, and some walk out, only to walk back in. I have learned, the ones that walk in, usually do so at just the right time, no matter how long they stay. The ones that walk out, are making room for the ones that are supposed to be there. And the ones who walk out, only to walk back in, I have learned, if they really want to walk back in, I should greet them with an open mind, an open heart, and open arms.

4. What is one thing that you meant to accomplish but didn't?
I wanted to be a duel card holder in stagecraft. I have my stage card, the second would be in wardrobe. I started the apprenticeship program earlier this year. My plate has been very full this year, I needed to drop the program this go around. I still do the job, I just want the card that says I really do know what I'm doing. All is not lost, the card will eventually be mine.

5. What was the biggest change in your life over the last year?
My mom's health. I have seen her go from a relatively healthy 70yr old, to battling pancreatic cancer that had spread to her lymph nodes. Now she deals with old radiation burns in her stomach that open and bleed, cauterization of the bleeds is needed about every 2 weeks now. And a malignant tumor on her spine, slowly robbing her of everything from sight to leg function, for all intents and purposes, life.

6. Do you like cheese?
Born and raised in Wisconsin. Need I say more? In fact, I'll probably eat cheese at some point tomorrow while watching Wisconsin win the Rosebowl.

7. Did anyone new come into your life over the last year?
Yes, a few. I'm thankful for that.

8. What are you most thankful for over the last year?
A few of the friends that I have. A few here on BFP, and a few here. There to talk, give me a smile, encouragement or, a kick in the ass. What ever I needed, I found it in these friends. I am truly thankful.

9. Will you make any New Year's resolutions this year? If yes, what?
Nope. Haven't even thought about it. I'm sure the day will come. (see first answer)

10. Name one new thing that you plan to do in 2011.

Skydive. I'm not waiting for anyone to do it with anymore, I'm just gonna do it.


katsarecool 01-01-2011 12:00 AM

I am very thankful that I dodged the Breast Cancer bullet this fall though it was one nervewracking six weeks tests, waiting, more tests, more waiting.

Tommi here is the one who publically and privately very strongly encouraged me to get that long overdue Mammogram! The situation still needs to be monitored but if it were not for Tommin who knows. This is the wonder and value of getting close with folks in a on line community. So again my appreciation for Tommi and all the special other members who held my hand through that ordeal!!

3. What is the biggest/most important lesson you learned over the last year?
The biggest lesson I learned this year is how quickly life can change when it hit to close to home. I hit a sudden rough patch with my best friend/roommate and his health. Thankfully, he pulled through.
4. What is one thing that you meant to accomplish but didn't?
I didn't accomplish my goal of building a closer relationship with my mom, though I did manage to communicate my feelings to her. She is a very distant woman. Its just how she is.

Making changes such as eating better and exercising to improve my life.
