    My new year resolutions are:
    1. to laugh more
    2. to meet at least one new person per week
    3. to take up two new hobbies this year
    4. to learn two new skills during this year
    5. to have more fun
    6. to visit Canada and do some canoeing
    7. to give up stressing about things I cannot (or don't want to) change

    I started my year by having far too much fun by taking a principle part in our Panto (for those stateside look up Pantomime on Wikipedia). For incriminating photos see the Panto post on General Chit-Chat part of the forum.

    I am 50 this year. I am looking forward to having a fantastic time with friends and family. I have wrinkles, grey hair, saggy boobs, am overweight, drink too much, eat FAR too much, but look at myself in the mirror every morning and think "God, you are FABULOUS!". It works for me!

    Prism99,

    For years I could not eat chocolate because it triggered migraine headaches; took me years to find this out by trial and error. Good news is that after reaching my "second puberty" menopause that is, I could eat chocolate again! Still trying to make up for all those years!

    One Hershey Kiss would trigger my migraines.

    I can agree, I live with 2 and my boys are a riot. Get a pet you will get plenty of exercise.
