One more thing

My 6th day of Christmas Present, a little singing Santa.
Thanks mom and dad, I adore Ho Ho Ho!

Work is working again, and so am I.

We haven't even celebrated the Epiphany yet.

It is only the first Monday.

And I find that I already miss my own time, my home time.

I will be online less, you see. And have to work harder to make more time for me.


So it goes.


I am committed to organizing and moving my life forward.

I am committed to documenting my future as I see it.

I am committed to being a better me.


With that determination, I also leave you this. Another poem by the inimitable Wesley McNair -

What Became

What became of the dear
strands of hair pressed
against the perspiration
of your lover's brow
after lovemaking as you gazed
into the world of those eyes,
now only yours?

What became of any afternoon
that was so vivid you forgot
the present was up to its old
trick of pretending
it would be there
always?

What became of the one
who believed so deeply
in this moment he memorized
everything in it and left
it for you?

Resolutions - 2010

ok, let's see how we do with this. I think if I measure against these at the first of every month, I might make some progress. So, in 2010 I resolve to - well, truly, I just resolve to be better. I have one resolution. To be a better person, to be a better member of society, to be a more informed, kinder, stronger, sweeter, better person. One thing. Just one thing.

This, I will work on all year. This is it, folks. Me, better, in 2010.

Now with that said, there are a few things that I will think about, along the way. And if any of these get accomplished - if any of these progress in anyway - that will be delightful.

Enriching my Spirit
1) Seek clarity
2) Create weekly
3) Be Civil, Peaceful, Honest, True, and sweet to Mr. Bryant!
4) Listen to more good music and take more pictures
5) Deepen my spiritual meditation and relationship

Developing my Intellect
5) Learn something from history every week
6) Read at least 24 books of various genres, including history and science
7) Edit, revise, and finish my book
8) Submit the book to a publisher
9) Write a book in November
10) Learn basic Spanish

Enhancing my Personal Wealth
11) Start a 529 account for Asa and Jaya
12) Organize my finances more effectively
13) Save money for Christmas 2010 :):)
14) Get the multiple income streams really rolling

Improving my Health
15) Make healthy food choices, except on holiday and feast days
16) Take my vitamins daily
17) Schedule a complete physical
18) Sleep more

Becoming more Fit
19) Drop 20 pounds
20) Walk every day, rain or shine



Whatever progress I make here, it is progress for me. I am already delighted to have begun. Again. Like Finnegan.
