Lunchtime Poll: Promises Kept?



Welcome to another wonderful day here at Persephone, friends. I hope everyone had a chance to check in with us yesterday and tell us about your fantastic adventures while we were on break.

This new year is still wet behind the ears, so I find myself still thinking about resolutions. Promises, really. I’m curious to know what new year resolutions you were able to keep. They don’t have to be from last year — just a general tally of how the gung-ho, fresh new things attitude lasts you over the course of a calender year.

Tell me all about it in the comments.

    I was good about resolutions to learn more about economics and to read more. Most of my other ones tend to pitter out.

    My general, be a great mom and try a new skill, lasts me through the year. But anything specific….lose weight or some such stuff….doesn’t work.

    I’ve been really good about my resolution from 2-3 years ago about recycling more. None of my others ever tend to work out very well, but I think this year I’m going to try to procrastinate less and make more physical to-do lists so that I don’t slack off on things. Of course, it’s the 3rd and I haven’t started yet, so the procrastination is currently winning. I have gotten a couple chores done that I’ve been putting off!

    More veggies, more running (if this stupid heel gives up), more reading. And finally get around to my unicorn tattoo.

      Every year I say ‘this is the year I take up running’ and every year I give up. This year I gave up on saying it. :)
