New Years Resolutions kept or lost?

I am very proud of myself for keeping some of my New Years Resolutions
I kept over the past year.

val189...

That's funny -- I searched the web for last year's resolutions and admit I came
up a bit short.

I still yell to dh from the other room, tho not too often.

I never took up horseback riding.

I have been better about cleaning up the kitchen at night, and did get
to the gym 128 times.

Still didn't get the bathroom painted.

I finally started a exercise program back in April and been sticking
too it.

Using up all my beauty supplies before running out and buying more and
more. It was hard for me to resist the OPI polishes, going to Bath and
Body Works and avoiding Sephora and Ebay.

Finally having shiny hair all of the time.

Next year, I want to do the following.

Sending hand written thank you notes, birthday cards.

Stop the insanity I call my home with all of the junk. I need to throw
away, give away, and stop buying the same issue of a magazine twice in
one month.

I need to subscribe to the magazine I read.

Finish all my projects that have been in progress for months already.

I am sure they are many more to add to the list. This is what I could
think of now. What is on your list?

I laughed about the subscribing to the magazine you actually read. I
bought In Style at the grocery store for years before I realized I
should subscribe to it.
I basically maintained my weight all year, kept up my walking and really
got the yard in good condition with more plants and flowers. I have
always sent hand written notes and birthday cards and taught my
daughters to do the same. We are all stationery hoarders. I also like
to send hand written notes to people just because...not always needing a
special reason.

I have to take up that challenge of getting the house in order. I am
halfway there but now it is time to tackle it seriously.
read Organizing from the Inside Out by Julie Morgenstern. I also have
Let Go of the Clutter but it isn't reading but doing that counts.

I am rather anal about finishing projects. I am almost finished with a
sweater I am knitting (my second this year) and then I will start an
afghan. The only other unfinished projects are scarves but I like to
keep them to take on trips because they take up so little space.

I have already organized my lipsticks, large and small glosses in three
of the colorful mesh bags I bought from Nordstrom and it is now so easy
to find the products I want. I began to line my dresser drawers with
wall paper remnants. I had so many socks, nylons, etc. I couldn't find
matching pairs or I ended up wearing navy instead of black. I still
have a small pile of black socks in a corner of the bedroom. These are
all near perfect so the ones my girls don't want will go to the thrift
store for twenty-five cents a pair. I wash everything before I donate.
So the dresser project is not even halfway done but I just started it
yesterday.
