WOULD-n't It Be Loverly?

I have the blog "The Happiness Project" on my home page for my home internet, and this week I was particularly drawn to a post about resolution-making for the New Year. Given the list, here are my updated resolutions that I have posted to my vision board in my room:

To Look In the Mirror
· Physical balance
· Work/Life balance
· Nutrition

To Look to Others
· Church
· Meetups
· Travel (Obtain passport)
· Volunteering

The One
· Shuts his cell phone off when we’re together and doesn’t make me feel guilty about the communication he missed
· Doesn’t get tired of my mind or my body
· Spends the night
· Is curious
· Makes me laugh
· Lets me—no, asks me—to tell him what turns me on

To Look to Life
· 3 pages per day of writing
· 12 books read this year
· Work/Life balance
· A job that I define
· Read The New Yorker weekly—and write on it

You'll see that work/life balance is on there twice. It's twice as important.

And if I can keep more than one resolution this year, then you'll see a lot more of me on here, writing about what I read in The New Yorker. Or, three handwritten pages worth of nothing in particular.

Have a wonderful holiday season, dear reader.
