Resolutions

I like to make a lot of resolutions.  Last year I think I made 8 and kept 2.  But that's better than not keeping any.  So:
1. Read 36 books.
2. Post at least 732 times to this blog.
3. Consume at least 2 servings of vegetables every day.
4. Weigh less than 140 pounds.
5. Go on at least one date per month with my wife.
6. Pray earnestly for at least one thing every day.
That's it for now.  JM

Resolutions Update

So I've actually achieved one of my New Year's Resolutions already. I wanted to be able to rep 135 pounds on the bench press, and today I did it. I'm trying to train for endurance so I only do 2 sets, but today I did a set of 10 reps and then a set of 7 reps.
My other resolutions are not doing as well.
I've only run 18 miles and I want to run 1,000 this year.
I've read 6 books and I want to read 18 this year.
I've come up with the main ideas for my book, but haven't started writing it yet.
I haven't learned any of the 4 U2 songs.
And I still need to learn InDesign and Premiere.
There's still tons of time, though. JM

30

I'm 30 now. Man, that's crazy old. I don't really feel old, but that is such a big number. I wonder when I'm going to be the weird old guy with earrings. I'm looking at this as my last chance to get in shape. I'm going to have to start running again. We'll see if I can pick up some mileage to hit my resolution goal of 1000 miles this year. JM
