Sometimes I make resolutions, sometimes not...
Chinese restaurant, chopsticks, yes.
Reading in bed, no.
We run off of rooftop antenna and use remote for the tv.
Last xray I had was early last year when I fell at work and hurt my shoulder. No visible damage but it hasnt been as strong or usable as before. Oh well.....
Happy New Year Day to all!
What’s your attitude towards New Year Resolutions?
I usually make them, and do fairly well at keeping them, for a time at least
I usually make them but rarely/never keep them
I sometimes make them
I gave up making them long ago
I’ve never made them XXX, they are a waste of time.
