Resolution

This was on my home page, but I liked it enough to keep it:

2007 has arrived and so has the Carey household resolution - to live every day of 2007 taking advantage of the fact that we don't have children. Sleeping in, drinking myself into oblivion, staying up until whenever i feel like, and obsessing over things I don't need are current examples of this mentality. The countdown is on. 2008 is just around the corner. Before too long, Carey party of two will not prompt us to get up and head to the hostess stand. Carey party of two-and-a-half? You've got roughly 359 days plus 40 weeks to wait for that.

I've been doing well so far. I had a little too much to drink twice last week, I slept until almost one last weekend, and I've been working at my kitchen table for the last three hours. Wait. That's not any fun! What have I been doing?? Here it is two weeks into the new year and I'm already blowing my resolution!

I think I have a bottle of tequila in the freezer. I better go check into that...

Actually, the most important part of my resolution is healthy. I have no idea how often I'll be able to take care of me once a bouncing bundle of joy comes along, so I'm taking this opportunity to go to the gym as often as possible. Sure they have a little day care, but who wants to pick their brand new baby up from one day care and drop the poor little thing off at another? I've determined that Doug and I are going to have to get one of those jogging strollers. I'll take the dogs and he can push the baby. I'd push the baby, but Doug is smarter than me and won't run with both puppies. I wonder when I'll catch on to that...
