words of scarlett O hara come to mind 'I'll never be hungry again' 'tomorrow is another day'
2020 its like we've all been through a war
I wasnt on the front line but keeping things going at home and not going crazy was kinda tough. Im thankful that I hadnt lost anyone close to me...
went to a cousins funeral last wednesday (not from covid) though we werent close friends GOd gave me assurance that shes at peace. And thats all that matters.

And for once Lynx beat me to what I was going to say (or at least a really similar variation thereof). Probably because I was resolved to stay safe and time my holiday travels to avoid the winter storms or having to shovel a foot of snow off the drive in the dark.
And that was one resolution I kept.

Wouldn't matter if you had beat me. I've been making the same resolution for four or five years here, every time this thread type pops up. If you had beat me I would have just hunted up one of my old posts and claimed you copied me. 
Kidding of course. That would be really tacky. But it was fun to say.

aside from learning to read and write chinese (difficult, but some is better than none) I think one resolution I am going to make is to aim for being zero-waste
That means use up everything I have or give away excess to others who need it. And not buying things I cant use.
I already practice this in gardening but it can be applied to other areas of life too. Scraps can be useful and so can weeds. I just think this throw away society / trash it and move on lifestyle that we live in is really bad for the environment. If I want to still be living here in a decades time we got to start in our own homes.

Foxtrot comic strip:
DAD: "What ya doing honey?"
MOM: "Planning my new year's resolution diet."
DAD: "Whoa, it's way too early for that! We still have all those Christmas cookies to eat."
MOM: "You mean we HAD all those Christmas cookies to eat."
DAD: "Um... weren't there, like, 13 dozen?"
MOM: "Yup. Now for January I'm sticking entirely to lettuce..."

I don't think I've ever kept one, so I don't make them anymore. If you've really decided to do something, you can start any day you want. Every day is a new day. I've made a resolution recently to chill out with coffee creamer, and been doing it. (By chill out with, I mean cut down on it )
