2013: 20 Funny New Year's Resolutions
When it comes to New Year's resolutions, our family members and friends can get quite creative and even funny with what they resolve to do in the New Year. Here a few good ones I have heard along the way...Oh, and a few of my own!
1. I resolve to stop procrastinating about procrastinating!
2. I will stop sending Facebook messages and emails to my loved ones when they are in the same room as I am!
3. I will use my treadmill for something other than a place to hang my jacket.
4. I will not sit at the kitchen table in my PJ's all day. Instead, I will move my computer to my bedroom.
5. I vow to never take a laxative and a sleeping pill on the same night!

I am just checking in and was wondering how everyone is doing since the surgery. I am doing well I am able to get my liquids in and most of the time I get the protein in also. I have not really run into any problems other than I am having pain in my legs but I am not sure if it is just the weather changing for if it has to do with my body adjusting to having less mass. Hope everyone is doing well.
