New Years Resolutions

It's the new year!! May 2007 never come again.,
Anyway, in the time honored tradion of setting resolutions and then forgetting about them by March, here I go.
this year I will...keep in touch better. My goal is to call Grandma Adams at least once a month and my dad, sister, and in-laws at least once a week.
This year I will...always have my home clean enough to feel comfortable having people over. Regardless of how late I work, even if it means not being as critical and judging cleanliness so strictly.
This year I will...finish reading the Book Of Mormon with Dan. We've been reading since before we got married and at the rate we're going, Our yet unborn sons will be leaving or even coming home from their missions before we're done.
This year I will...Read the Sunday school lesson before it's taught. At least once a month.
This year I will...buy less for myself. I know I don't always need the new dress or shoes or shirt, etc. Even if it is super cute and even if it is on sale.
This year I will...continue to tell my husband every day how great he is and show him how much I love him.
This year I will not...be late to Sacrament Meeting. I will be there to sing the opening hymn...not just catch the end in the foyer. (or miss it altogether)
This year I will not...make jokes at my husband's expense, or repeat anything he wouldn't want said. I didn't even really realize I was doing this until he told me actually. But I want to stop NOW because I want Dan to know that I love and respect him and want him to be comfortable knowing that I'm not embarassing him.
This year I will not...be envious of other parnets and their families. Even when I see in the news or in magazines that parents are acting in an unfit manner.

I think that's about it. Wish me luck, and have a great new year!
