New Year's Resolutions
Topic: The States
I used to always have a New Year's resolution, because I thought it was fun to have one and that anyone who didn't was a humbug. This year I didn't make a resolution. Out of all the resolutions I've made in my life, I can only remember one. I'm pretty sure that if I can't even remember what most of them were, I for darned sure didn't keep any of them.
My questions to all of you are these:
Did you make a resolution this year?
If so, care to share?
Do you remember any past resolutions?
Did you ever actually keep any? (If yes, past January?)
Just curious.
Our visit in Indio is going well. This morning I was thinking how much I was enjoying being in a place I could wear Birkenstocks in January. Unfortunately, the weather has taken a bit of a turn. As I write this, there's a severe thunderstorm warning for Orange, Riverside, and San Bernardino counties. We're not leaving for Palmdale until tomorrow, so we should be fine for driving back. However, today we were going to take a tram to a mountaintop to enjoy the view of the desert, but with the weather the way it is, that's probably not going to happen.
Last night we did a fun thing. We went to the Living Desert. It's a wildlife park. They had sections of it decorated with lights for Christmas. It was really neat. (The photo to the right, "Happy Zoo Year," was taken there.)
Yesterday we did Ryan's third Christmas. (Photos to follow eventually.) Of course Ryan had more fun with the boxes than anything else. Ryan's aunt gave him some adorable glow-in-the-dark jammies. I'd never see those before!
We've had to mail a lot of our things to England. It will be like Christmas all over again when we get everything there!
