I was embarrassed?<br /><br />Sometimes resolutions are pointless...They are things that we proclaim and in a day...or a week...or a month or so, we're back to our old habits and have forgotten what we resolved to do.<br /><br />I myself don't use exclamation points too much. However, if you talked to my other writing friends, they would hem and haw and whisper... They might say, "There ARE indeed things Sioux needs to work on. She's far from perfect..."<br /><br />But exclamation points? For me, they are...well, they're not really worth shouting and exclaiming about, I guess...Sioux Roslawskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17924021828536277618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7795370529696691543.post-43509104384326103552012-01-01T17:14:09.149-06:002012-01-01T17:14:09.149-06:00I prefer not to call them resolutions.

I see myself do it. And I. Can't. Stop!!!! There ought to be an Over-Exclaimer's Anonymous Club. Except we aren't so anonymous now as we've both admitted to the habit on the internet. *sigh*Lisa Ricard Clarohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05048410207952052295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7795370529696691543.post-85463558491799000912012-01-01T14:17:27.801-06:002012-01-01T14:17:27.801-06:00oops, that should have said "not going to pro...oops, that should have said "not going to promise myself I'll finish my book "An Unfittie's Guide..." etc.<br />Not that I need to explain my typos.<br />KKay L.

Why can't I just put the poem on my blog and leave it there, unexplained and also...unillustrated? I have a fear of naked poetry. If it doesn't have a photo, or a piece of free clip-art, it isn't finished, it isn't done.<br />I'm not setting myself unrealistic goals. I'm not going to promise myself I'll finish my "An Unfittie's Guide to Adventurous Travel" this year. But I think I might tackle the overexclaiming, overexplaining, and compulsive illustrating.<br />Thanks for the help. I needed that. Not that I'm compulsive, but in two short evenings of TV, I ate all but one of a tin of Danish Butter Cookies. My husband ate one, but he never got a second.<br />I think I might be more addictive than compulsive. LOL<br />KKay L.

What this means, for me, is setting goals that I'm going to do anyway - like waking up before noon on workdays.Tom Jorgensonhttp://www.tomjorgensonconsulting.com/noreply@blogger.com
