I'd like you to share your New Year's resolutions.

#1

I have several related to objectives/goals, but the most important one is to be kinder to myself. I treat me like c**p, and I've given myself a stern lecture: if I don't stop saying bad things about me, I'm going to put myself in time out.

Call a friend or family member once per week (a different person each week) just to talk and catch up and see how they are.

For 3 years, I have tried to join and open a FacesofMankind.org in New York City. Never got a response. My new year’s resolution is to go out on my own visiting the homeless individuals and encampments in the East Village asking to be part of MY OWN “Faces of the East Village”.
To my surprise and delight, every one I interviewed agreed to let me photograph and paint their portraits. These people will be the recepients of the proceeds from the sales of the paintings.
It will take awhile, as I am alone in this…and have to beome a legal Not-For-Profit.
However, I am undaunted, and have begun my first painting…Eduardo.
It has been quite humbling to hear people’s stories about how they got where they are.
I hope you will check out Faces of Mankind…it is quite remarkable.

I was just diagnosed with ADHD. At age 68. Hopefully next year I'll be able to understand myself better and not feel like a loser. And maybe gain some tools to help with my brain.

I want to explore art. My art was discouraged and criticized when I was young so I gave it up. I'm going to embrace my art even if no one likes it but me.

I resolve to bat more things under the sofa. Audi resolves to pounce everything that needs it.

To focus more on getting myself healthy. Not just losing weight. I want to be around for awhile.
And to read one book a month. :)

I need to quit dating men who use me for money.

For no particular reason, I've decided to learn ASL (American Sign Language). Shortly after making this decision, I watched Barbie on Netflix and they had an ASL translator - very cool. Then I was scrolling FB one day, and my favorite band had posted a video at a concert of a girl signing the words to the song to her friend. I feel like there was a third "sign" I've forgotten... and so that's my goal.

To drink more water, I usually have 4 or 5 cans of pepsi max and no water each day but 2024 is the year of starting to drink more water and less fizzy drink. A secondary one is to eat more healthily as I need a hernia repair operation and the surgeon won't do it until I've lost about 40 kilos. Taking it 1 kilo at a time.

I will not make any New Years resolutions. I shall remain horrible. I may even get worse.

I don't ever make New Year's Resolutions. I find it odd to tie change to a calendar. I try to be self-aware, whether January 1st or mid-November. Happy New Year!

Get a job that pays slightly better and doesn't have such toxic managers/coworkers. (More like a pipe dream. There's no full-time jobs in this area that I can physically do. But since every day I have to remind myself that if I walk out, my family ends up homeless, I'm gritting my teeth and biting tongue.)

More quality time with the dog.
It's not that we hadn't had quality time last year. He was just quite a challenging puppy and walking him was a lot of work at first. Additionally I broke my ankle last year and recovery took more than half a year.
Now I want to enjoy the fruits of our hard work and have more of those relaxing, long, free walks with doggo. Maybe we can even start running in a few months.
