New Year's Resolutions

[webcowgirl]

I'm not to0 interested in the "improve me" meme, as I don't want people to suddenly release a bunch of pent-up bile toward me (and I'm feeling like I'm handling the overly complex relation situation here poorly - I'm friends with too many people who know each other and I think I screw up the my position between them). But I'm finding New Year's is approaching and I don't have any resolutions for this year. What should I do? What should I stop doing?

I've made comments anonymous (at least I tried to, LJ's suggestions for how to do so were very difficult to find) and all screened, so your suggestions will be your secret. If I find any that sound doable, I'll post them and share. Be advised if I find any of them ridiculous, I may also post them for the humor value. Under both circumstances, I'll keep the suggestors anonymous.

Some time tomorrow I'll write about the "Paintings of Modern Life" exhibit at the Hayward, which I thought was really worth seeing, and the Matthew Bourne "Nutcracker," which was a hoot and a holler, but for tonight I'm much more in a "drink mulled wine and space out" kind of mood. Tomorrow is "don't do much day," which I think will be pleasant.

Okay, it's lame, but I'll say it anyway: Try to get enough sleep in 2008.

I'm finally starting to realize what a difference it makes in being able to deal with stress, plus it's supposed to slow aging, encourage weight loss and improve the quality of your skin. What's not to like?

(On this, I need to follow my own advice.)

Sounds like you read the article on beauty tips in the New York Times!

I've actually tended to get a fair bit of sleep but I should really be going to sleep half an hour earlier than I do during the week.

I didn't see the NYT story, but I probably should look at it.

Glad to hear you've been managing well (you're a better napper than I am). I tend to skimp on sleep far more than I should and it usually shows more than I realize at the time. I just don't have the emotional resilience that I do when I'm rested.

The article is here (http://www.nytimes.com/2007/12/27/fashion/27SKIN.html). It's been in the top ten for several days now.
