OK, Kitt, I can forgive you for not making resolutions. I break mine anyway, but let me have my delusions.

MrsD, stomp on those shingles!

And me? This year I can have some bubbly...very little, hic.

In addition for 2010:

I am also going to see the less,

more,

Give credit where credit is due.

And general be an all around well adjusted person. Sort of.

OK, who else has New Years contributions? To resolve or not to resolve, that is the question.

As you can tell by my posts, I had some bubbly already. It does not take much.

Ah yes, MrsD, nothing like dreaming about dirt under our fingernails. I am making my seed list. Not much else to do out here in the winter, right? Did you know that Lake Superior contains enough water to cover North and South American with one foot of water?

I don't have much else to do these days but search for Great Lakes trivia.

Once my friend floated away on an ice floe. She was OK, but they had to rescue her. It was on one of the 'other' Great Lakes, not Superior.

OK fellow NEUROPATHITES..........

Whether you are IDIOPATHETIC, AUTOIMMUTANT, OR HEREDITORIUS....

Join the party....oh and you guys down under have awesome fireworks. It is too darn cold here to have fireworks. Minneapolis is at 2...we will have a warm spell with 8 degrees...not counting windchill.

So guys....any resolutions? or other nonsense?

I'm starting my seeds indoors this year. Getting the cold frame out (it is portable), and I have my seeds in hand. All I need is a few bags of starter.

I bought a heat mat on Ebay and some tiny cell, starters...128/flat. I have a portable table set up for my portable grow lights, and am raring to go. (haven't done so many in several years). This season I have 4 people lining up for babies!

That is awesome, growing your own plants. I tried to do that a few years ago, and, my heat lamp fell on the floor. And I burned a hole almost rite down to the basement. Stupid me....I had turned off the smoke detector. I thought I could pull the battery on the kitchen one, because it always goes off, and it affected ALL the smoke detectors in the WHOLE house! I woke up in time to save my house....and now I have a big hole in my kitchen floor, which I filled with floor leveling compound. I never repaired the vinyl. Next time I grow things, it is in the basement, with a concrete floor. duh It was a perfect circle hole, lol.

This year I resolve to be more careful.

You are pretty good at things. I am sure you will be successful. I just try hard and hope for the best, lol.

May we all take time to find those small things in life that can give us JOY!
From planting seeds, to being able to move around better and to all most importantly---LESS PAIN!
In ANY LEGAL WAY WE CAN GET IT! May we ALL get proper diagnoses and treatments and improve the quality of our lives!!!!!!!!
More 's to all! -j

It is cold in Minnesota right now......It will be a loooooooong winter. We've had a ton of snow and it is super cold.
I cracking the bank to take my wonderful wife to Cabos San Lucas in February....ahhhhh warmth!
Happy New Year everyone...and I wish all a pain free day!

Happy New Year to everyone.


Some of my new year resolutions are to lose weight and try and get as healthy as I can. I am planning to volunteer this year if possible at our local animal shelter and take an online course to become a vet assistant. I've wanted to do this for the longest time, but my health seemed to always put a damper on it. I don't want to let it stop me now. I've always loved animals, especially dogs, and it would make me so happy to accomplish this and help them.

MrsD, you sound like you have an awesome garden! Maybe you can post some pictures sometime? I'm really into house plants myself and I have them everywhere in my house. My family just laughs every time I buy another one and bring it home. My favorites are my African Violets. I have about 30 of them and they are all in bloom. They are so pretty!

As this year closes, I just want to say thank you to my fellow PN forum family. Thank you for being there during some of my roughest times during the year. Also for all of the help you've given when it comes to answering everyone's questions. Here's to a new and better year for everyone! God bless....
