Time to look back at my 2006 New Year’s Resolutions and see what I accomplished and where I failed.

2006 New Year’s Resolutions
1. Get a new job. Earn more money. Claw way to the top.

– ACHIEVEMENT!!! I finally got a new job! I am earning more money! I am in a much better place, career-wise.

2. Keep the house, specifically the kitchen, bedroom and bathroom, SPARKLING!

– TOUCH AND GO. Sometimes I am good, most of the time I fall into my old rut of slovenliness.

3. Get away from the computer. Go out. Have fun. Dance. Sing. De-stress.

– PARTIAL ACHIEVEMENT!! I am spending a lot less time online– I can’t say that I am out having fun, dancing and singing or destressing but at least I am away from the computer.

4. Buy a big girl bed (It’s true, I sleep on a twin). Fix the outside patio. Get hardwood flooring in dining room.

– 100% SUCCESS!!! I bought a queen bed and love it! SEMI-FAILURE ON OTHER TWO RESOLUTIONS. I did not fix the outside patio but I did buy patio furniture. The hardwood floor in the dining room will happen this year.

5. Take more walks. Do Go-Go Aerobics and Belly Dancing to Fitness DVDs more often. MOVE.

– TOUCH AND GO. Sometimes I am very active, sometimes not so much.

6. Continue to strive to Emma Peel Excellence.

– I AM STRIVING, BABY!
