We all have first world problems and those threads are very funny. I am wondering what your first world New Year's resolutions are?
I am going to unsubscribe to junk email. I am overrun with stores and crap that is sending me 200 emails a day for things I just don't even care about.
My cheap ass will buy Kleenex. I've had sinus infection after sinus infection and I'm tired of blowing my nose on toilet paper.

I've had sinus infection after sinus infection and I'm tired of blowing my nose on toilet paper. Hello mom, is that you? One of my adult things is that there is a box of Kleenex or Puffs in nearly every room of the house. I spent my entire childhood blowing my nose on t.p. because mom was cheap and refused to buy Kleenex. |

Lose all the extra weight by joining a ritzy gym in town. Join weight watchers and buy all new clothes because we thin people have to look awesome. Oh wait, I’ll still be wearing my Costco sized yoga pants! 🤣

Get my Starbucks addiction down to once or twice a month. I work directly next to Starbucks....they know me by name....when they bump into me at the grocery store. Lol. It’s bad.

I need a new bathmat, my current one can't be washed anymore because the plastic backing always comes off in the wash. I've put this off for a long time because I don't like spending money on essentials. lol

To actually send snail mail made-by-me greeting cards. I have tons of supplies, some chosen for specific people and occasions, that are sitting unused. I love making cards, now I am holding myself to actually sending them off!

I resolve to keep my back counter clutter free.
I don't do real resolutions, because I don't like the harshness that comes w/it. However, I'm a huge believer in one word for the year.

Start putting stuff in it's own place.. instead of putting it where ever I want and then get mad because I have so much shit all over and if I would just put it back where I got it in the first place... that goes for my house and purse!

Can I get eyelash extensions? I can really bat my eyelashes at men then. Please? I think not. My hair is a want and my nails are a stupid need to get them back up to normal strength. Eyelashes are a waste on me.

I only make resolutions that I know I can keep. That way I feel good about myself. #1 for every single year is to be nice to old people. #2 Say no more often. I keep this one daily. #3 Give little kids compliments about clever they are.

My New Year's resolution is to declutter my house. I have too much clutter. It's embarrassing!
I also need to unsubscribe to junk email.

I’ve already gotten a head start on my New Year’s Resolutions. I figured, why wait? I joined Weight Watcher’s online. I will remain as an online subscriber until I relocate.
Finish putting the point stickers on everything in the pantry and a few items in the freezer. I am loving this newest version of WW! All of the foods that I normally eat are all O points! It is a pain to look things up when I’m hungry, so marking everything in the pantry and marking all new groceries will really help.
Give away any higher point foods. I am not dragging any fattening pantry items with me when I move. Other than sugar. I have two hummingbird feeders and will keep the sugar strictly to use for the hummingbirds.
And finally, make time to create something every day. With all the sorting, packing, cleaning, and organizing I have to do, I need to add something fun in there to overcome this depression.
Gather and give things to bff’s brother. He is broke and said he will happily take anything I’m not taking with me, from cleaning supplies to food to furniture. Awesome.
Absolutely pack a minimum of 7 boxes a day, no matter what.
Return to walking my route with the dog. I stopped quite a while ago. Exercising when you are in pain is sooo hard. I am going to force myself because exercise is helpful for fibromyalgia pain. If I can reduce the fibro pain, the chronic spinal pain will be easier to live with. It is just the getting out the door part that I need to do.

I hate traditional New Year's resolutions so instead I like to try something new. A couple of years ago I taught myself to crochet and now I have another hobby. This year I think it's going to be learn to use chopsticks.  |

It really does help with the urge to graze late at night. It takes the fun out of it when you see those points staring back at you! |

My mom is very cheap (and I’m generally the opposite), but she always comments on how I don’t have any Kleenex in my house. Lol. |

I need to stop buying things and continue to purge different areas of the house as I deep clean. Not buying things will help with finances, reducing clutter, and will leave more time for other things that I want to do. I need to make health more of a priority again and get back to healthy eating and exercise.
Mom also another that needs to de-clutter email.

I’m going to keep one from this year. Last year I wanted to do one thing a week for me, get my hair colored (I have tons of gray ) toes done, massage, eyebrows, or facial. I didn’t meet it but I tried because it was a resolution. In 2019 I’d like to take adult tap ( I used to tap) and join the local Woman’s Club. They seem to do quite a few things for the community. I think I’ll add tissue to the list. My poor kids grew up using toilet paper. A week ago my daughter had the flu so I went and bought supplies, such as Lysol, Tylenol, ginger ale, crackers and Gatorade. I grappled a box of Kleenex, and I kid you not, I felt like a Rockefeller. I never keep kleenex the house.

My first world resolution would be to stop eating out so much. It's bad for the wallet and the waistline.

Mine is to stop coloring my hair. I figure if it looks crappy I can always color it again but I’d prefer to stop putting chemicals on my head. My last color was 10-27 and I have a good inch of growth so I just need to resolve to keep going!
