My New Year's Resolution

Okay, last years resolution to become a high maintenance woman didn't quite work out. Namely because I have no clue what it takes to be a high maintenance individual. I was born poor, to poor parents, and it looks like I will also die poor.

This year my resolution is to finish my book and get it professionally edited so I don't look like an idiot when it gets critiqued. Getting it published is a bit too far fetched at this point. I all most have 500 pages and four more chapters to go.

I just want to say, for the record, that I don't feel getting my book published will make me rich but at least I can cross number 123 off my life list. I have a list of about 200 things I want to do before I die and I haven't crossed anything off. When I made the list in 2007 I thought I would have at least 3 crossed off by now. Who knew it would take so much money just to get to England then twice that to stay? Yes, going to England is number one on my list and I don't see getting tere in 2010 either.

Getting a professional job should be my resolution this year but is not something within my control. A resolution should always be something you can control or you waste your time and efforts trying.
