Coming up with resolutions can be tricky, so I ran a search through my FB and blog for old ones and came across this little nugget from 2016:
I will bahhh like a sheep every time someone says my name. Clint's [hubby's] resolution: To sing Darth Vader's Imperial March every time he enters a room. (On a somewhat related note, never let your kids create your resolutions).
I don't think I can top that, but here's one more set of family resolutions (with commentary) I came across from 2014:
Elijah [son's]: "My resolution is to convince Dad to download Minecraft mods onto my computer."
(He's ten. His life is pretty simple. And I have no idea what "mods" are.)
Clinton: "My resolution is to restore my Nova, and to go to the gym 3 times a week."
(It's possible that Clint's resolutions may have been completely fabricated by me due to his lack of playing-alongness. To my credit, I kept 50% of his resolutions practical and relevant to his interests, when what I wanted to say was "My resolution is to treat my wife like a princess and make her chocolate chip pancakes and rub her feet on a daily basis").
Mine: "My resolution is to finish my manuscript and to get a literary agent."
It's worth mentioning that I did end up finishing that manuscript (for Chasing Echoes) and publishing the book by the skin of my teeth in December 2014!
