Resolution Revolution

The other day, I was thinking a bit about resolutions. Lots of people make resolutions at the beginning of each year. I personally don’t make New Years Resolutions. I have made them before, but they never really pan out. It seems like I forget all about it before long.

So I was thinking … maybe I could make a resolution for just one week. But really a resolution is pretty much just a commitment to yourself. So … why not just make a commitment instead of a sure-to-fail resolution?

Commitment – January 24-30, 2009
I commit to using my Wii Fit at least five days this week.

I’m sure you noticed that my week started Saturday … and that’s because I used my Wii Fit Saturday and Sunday so I’ve already got two of the five days. May as well help myself out a bit this first week. Ha!

And I’m sure that some of you also noticed that I didn’t commit to using the Wii Fit 30 minutes a day or anything. Just that I will use it. It could be five minutes, but it will count! Gotta start somewhere, right?

Not Me! Monday

Yesterday at Toby Keith’s restaurant, Emily and I went to the restroom before we left because we had one stop to make on the way home. So we’re in the stall … Emily goes first and then it’s my turn. I lean forward to help Emily get her pants straightened … and the automatic toilet flushes (!!!) causing quite a bit of … uhhh … spray! Ahhhhhh!! So. Not. Fun.

And to get that uncomfortable scene out of your mind …

Nanny sent Mike these pictures of Emily riding around in Madison’s pink princess Jeep. I was very pleased to see that she followed all the safty precautions with the helmet … and the pads … and the seat belt! *proud mommy moment*
