New Years Resolutions

 Today is January 11, 2012, and the thought of how many people are sticking to the almighty New Years Resolution crossed my mind. I personally don't make one simply for the fact that I wouldn't stick with it... maybe I have the wrong attitude - already accepting defeat, but I really don't remember ever making one because I truly don't see the point. I try each day to become a better person then I was the day before. Anyway, I decided to google the top 10 - each site that I visited pretty much had the same, just in a different order. Getting healthy, enjoying life, spending less and saving more to mention a few. http://www.2011resolutions.org/top-10-new-years-resolutions-for-2011/
For all of you that have made this a yearly tradition or decided to take a swing at it for the first time; I am hoping the best for you ... cheers! As for me, this quote sums it up. “I made no resolutions for the New Year. The habit of making plans, of criticizing, sanctioning and molding my life, is too much of a daily event for me. ”

Make today the best that you can possibly make it for you may not see tomorrow.  - Carolyn Murray

How's Your Sleep

OMG Facts tweeted yesterday that you can survive days without eating but will live 11 days from not sleeping.  http://www.omg-facts.com/  I'm teetering on being sleep deprived at the moment. My 2 year old granddaughter has been staying the night and she won't sleep in her room.  She is a 2 year old that is the height of most 4 year olds, and she sleeps horizontally. It's not bad the nights that I get her head in my chest, but when its a night of the feet and getting kicked... forget about it. No sleep! I did some research and of course there has always been pros and cons about children sleeping in the same bed. Dr. Phil is opposed to it  - one of his reasons is it can cause regressive behavior.  http://drphil.com/articles/article/114  Personally I disagree - I loved having my kids by me and saw no side effects from it. They knew that they were always welcome in my bed, so naturally the same rule goes for the grandkids. It's just this is the first time h...
I left early this morning to get some shopping done, and I have to be honest - not ready to be sold on Christmas  I know it's the way retail works - I put many years into that industry, but I truly hate how overly commercialized Christmas is. They brainwash people and kids into thinking they have to have the newest and best of everything, and most people buy into the lie.  But what about the kids that their parents can't fall into the trap because financially they just can't do it. Are they made fun of or shunned by their peers because they don't have the newest clothes, gadgets, or toys?  Do they feel inferior or not worthy enough to receive - according to the advertisers you have to have it. It's not fair or right and I hate it!                                                               I think we all need to ...
