It only needs a nubbin - fresh ginger is strong...but I'm not telling you anything you don't already know.

Here is what I resolve for the coming year!

I will start speaking with the dead less often.

Heh -- I suspect I'd put more in than most people.

Cutting back on the instant coffee, are we?

Don't like ginger...

And btw, I can't add the fruitbowl to the mix! It will ruin the knives in my blender...

Damn. This isn't necessarily good for the rest of us.

Ah, but Madam Broshkina, they all have such interesting tales to tell I find.

My resolution is much more prosaic, it's to finish sorting out some goodies that I will give to the Animal Welfare OpShop, thereby making myself feel good, plus creating better 'feng shui'.

Hi! My name is still Terri.
Make that 1 month since my last soda/pop product!

Yes, Sweetpea, that would leave 11 months to go, not that I would stop at a year, but I guess that would make it a successful New Year's resolution. I've also lost ten pounds this month. My husband always told me that diet soda makes you fatter.

I made my new years resolution last month. Instead of ten books, I read sixteen

And here I was thinking you were planning to cut back!

Heh, I probably should.

I went to yoga class Friday... I may go again this week, too. And I'm looking into an Aikido club here on campus. And I've been doing a bit of biking, but still not much on the trainer in my office.

Congrats neko, glad you found one.. May I give you a suggestion though on Aikido, etc.? Leave that alone for now... Focus on the Yoga (Or Aikido) for a few months before getting into something else... One you don't want to overdo it physically which could set you back worse then when you started... And two you don't want to get swamped and find that you just give up on everything...

Starting something new always takes patience because in the beginning it doesn't feel like you are getting anywhere... That will change, but you just have to keep with it...

I mean, who would take care of your dragons if you pushed it and injured yourself?

Well, that last, especially, is sage advice.

I've done yoga before, so that's not really "new," but I'll give this some thought. I was leaning more toward the aikido, actually, but some grad student friends wanted to go to yoga last Friday, and it's free, so I went along.
