It makes sense to think about our life and what we can do to make it better. The concept of a fresh start in a brand new year is the perfect opportunity to ponder what we want to change. Many people have already made their list.
Of course, typical resolutions are getting in shape (we'll be bombarded with diet and fitness ads), getting organized (sales of plastic containers will go through the roof), and lining up finances (books on money management and tax programs abound). If the new year doesn't do anything else, it certainly helps the economy.
When I look at my list of resolutions from last year, I must admit I fell a little short. Okay, I didn't stick with any of them. But not to worry. Instead of beating myself up over 2010, I intend to resurrect my resolutions. I'll keep on trying in 2011. And isn't that what setting goals is all about?
Meanwhile, Indy and Bogey had no difficulty setting up their priorities.
Indy plans to:
1. Look for opportunities to eat more.
2. Spend daily time in Mom's lap.
3. Bark louder at squirrels and all other intruders.
4. Take more naps.
Bogey plans to:
1. Find better hiding places.
2. Find new ways to sneak outside.
3. Stand in the middle of everyone else's business at all times.
4. Take more naps.
Somehow, I think they'll both be pretty successful.
Happy New Year to all our Critter Alley readers! May 2011 bring happiness and blessings beyond belief!
