I should probably cut down on my book buying too. I didnt read nearly as much last year but because I was blogging I bought a bunch to giveaway.

Plus I think this is the first time I've ever seen a resolution about panties. I LOVE IT! You're so funny!

Oh my goodness, I buy underpants the same way. They are always too small. What is up with that? I had planned on buying new panties with my gift cards this year, but all I got was one to Lowes and one to the feed store. I'll do my best, but I'm not holding out hope that the underwear section at Lowes will work out.

Smiles,
Lisa

(And thanks for visiting my blog, so appreciated!)

I have good news. 60 is the new 40. So at 50, girlfriend, you're still a puppy.

Good luck with that new fiscal policy.

Happy New Year...

I've made a pact with a buddy to spend the first months of 2010 beefing up our emergency savings so I'll be doing a lot less shopping, too.

Even though a lot of things like detergent and diapers are cheaper in Target I will not set foot in one for at least the first couple of months, as all those little things that cost just one dollar are my downfall. It's like I'll buy a handful of those and BOOM! the spending dam is broken and it's open season to buy whatever strikes my fancy.

My New Year's Resolution is not to make any New Year's Resolutions! Can't fail on that one! ~ Eddie

I'm still determined with that 5 lb thing. And I actually have a slightly different issue with glasses and dishes. I have too many chipped or impractical ones. I need to bite the bullet and replace much of my glasses and dishes with "easier to stack" and "kid friendly" ones.

2009-12-29T22:31:22.942-08:00

Your panties resolution reminded me of the "Never Wear Panties to a Party" story in the book "The Sweet Potato Queens Book of Love". Maybe it's one of those books you brought but didn't read yet.

Do you have enough wine to fill all those glasses?
Happy New Year

2009-12-29T22:18:20.758-08:00

The pressure of a resolution is way too much for me so I try not to make them because I know myself well enough to know that I can't keep them.

My verbal skills also lie in the gutter and I think it's now becoming my trademark. A lady, I am not, in this category.

2009-12-29T19:29:05.931-08:00

do you have any idea how much you just made me smile and laugh and then laugh out loud and then almost wet myself....well you did and I love you for that !!!

2009-12-29T18:34:07.072-08:00

I don't usually make resolutions because I have absolutely no willpower. I'm thinking about joining up with a group of gals for a weight loss challenge. It seems futile.

I like your goals. They seem do-able.

I hope you have a very Happy New Year!

Wonderful!

I resolve to throw out all the underwear that is stretched out, doesn't fit, I never wear. I'm feeling ambitious, let's add socks, too.

Happy New Year, Beautiful!

With the shape of my dental work, I can floss with the rope that my boat anchor is tied to!

I never make resolutions. That is just the pessimist in me. If I achieve something, then it is a pleasant surprise, but if I choose to be an overeater on December 31st why should I kid myself and think that it will be any different on January first!?

Resolutions have never worked for me. It takes me all of five minutes to forget them. I am, however, trying to reverse my own bad money habits...

2009-12-29T11:20:34.445-08:00

I am pleased to say I have kept with my resolution made years ago to buy more comfortable underwear. I can't and won't do granny pants yet but cotton is a must. Good luck on your search for better panties, you will feel great when you find the right ones and won't even care about those five pounds. As for swearing, I like my very colorful vocabulary. Happy New Year!

I'm so tired of breaking my New Year's Resolutions on January 2 that I've stopped making them.

I'd really like to be more fit though. With a 3 1/2 year old to chase and try to keep up with, this old menopausal body ain't gonna cut it!

2009-12-29T08:09:34.447-08:00

I really enjoyed your post. I for one NEVER do the NY Res. thing. I don't want to take the time to think about it, full well knowing I wouldn't do it anyway.

2009-12-29T05:17:29.518-08:00

I don't wait until New Year's to resolve anything because my resolve could falter by then and I don't want to leave anything to chance.

Maybe you should start a support group...so when you feel weak, you can go to your resolution sponsor...

rock the resolutions!!! I know you can!!

As I have gotten older my resolutions have gotten smaller but perhaps have improved somewhat. This year my resolution is to try and be kind.

2009-12-28T22:25:07.584-08:00

Nice resolutions. I need to make some too. Off to the top of my head, being nicer to my husband should be on that list. But sometimes he aggrivates me so.

2009-12-28T22:16:46.247-08:00

PS: I forgot to tell you that I'm hopelessly addicted to collecting cookbooks. Where you have 300 wine glasses, I have 300 books. 300+ actually with more on the way. When I die, Larry can pay for my final disposition just by Craig's Listing those cookbooks. I see him eyeing them all the time and can hear his internal cash register cha-chinging away. Time for a Doberman guard dog I think.
