So I’ve already broken my first resolution. I wanted to blog every day this year. I knew it was a false hope. I knew I was setting myself up for failure. I knew and I put it on the list anyway. Sigh.

So I’m ignoring the other old resolutions. We already know where the weight thing is going. So I didn’t put it on this year’s list.
Exercise? Did someone mean that as a joke? Do they mean pushing away from the table? Hah.
What other things didn’t I list?
How about finishing two books this year? Oops. Let’s scramble my brain and go for three. What the heck. I can take some public embarrassment.
Seriously. I looked in the mirror on New Year’s Day. Did I like what I saw? Not really. I’m a year older, but not quite as heavy as last year. A few more wrinkles on my face that I like to think are from smiling too much. So I made a few promises to myself. I’ll keep up the changes I made in my eating habits and lose weight a bite at a time.
I’ll write everyday. This is the easiest to keep because it means so much to me. The big change will be going back to the old routine. I’ll write in the morning which is my prime time. The email and promo will need to wait until the afternoon when my brain drops out of creative mode.
I’m going to be serious about this. Life is too short to blow the opportunities.
Did you know I wrote two historical romances?
Check out my newly updated website and read the excerpts. Maybe you’ll buy one or two.
I’m at a bunch of places including:

Hi Jeanette,
Don’t give up. Remember, a donut is also shaped like a life saver.
