New Years Resolutions?
I have one.....giving up Dunkin Donuts! Yup! No More Dunkies! They can't get a cup of coffee right yet they start selling "personal pizzas"....flat bread sandwiches and, from what I hear...they will be selling lottery scratch tickets soon!!! Great....now I will get to stand behind some latte' ordering, breakfast sandwich ordering, gimme ummmmmm.......2 number.....no.....make it 3 of the ummmm......number 4's and 6 of the ahhhhhhh........no make it 5 number 2's!!!!!!! And all I want is a damn cup of coffee???
So......this will mostly be done because after I drink my 3 "Great Ones" each day minimum....(which really are not that great)  I realize that I am drinking about 20 ounces of heavy cream each day! So.....time to lose some weight and save some money!
Do you have any New Years resolutions??? 
Also want to shed 30 pounds so....can do without the donuts! |
Almost time to get our fish on!!!

Larry, that 20 oz. of cream is deadly to your heart. Thank God you're giving that up. I drink my coffee black, if it's good coffee then it doesn't need anything else. Mickey D's is very good coffee.
I'm gonna lose a coupla pounds this year and be in shape for the beginning of Striper season. Gonna try to be a lot less excitable and a little more concerned with things not personal. Maybe I'll try to be a little happier, too. We'll see...

I lost 40 pounds last year. Went from 267 to 227 - I'd like to lose twenty more - that would bring me to where I was in my early twenties. If you are thinking about it, I say go for it - everything in your life will improve.

I resolve to use the fitness equipment in the new "gym" room I just finished in my basement. That should be easier once I get the cable wired for the t.v. in the room. I can't do a treadmill without something to distract me. I am also going to get all my gear serviced and ready by March, so I'm not scrambling in April. I'd love the 50, but I'll be even happier if I can get out and fish more than last year and also get my son hooked on fishing. Good luck to everyone with their resolutions.

Whether you stick with a resoulution or not, at least you have not given up. Once you give up you begin the long (or short) spiral to the grave.
