Happy New Year Everyone!

So, I started a new little thing on my main site that I think will be fun. It's a book club....with a rolling admission policy...I think the message board setting is a cool way to allow anyone to join the conversation of one of these clubs at any time after they have read the book. Anyway...just like watching a TV show or movie that others have watched, it feels good to be able to read a book with others and then rip it apart or praise it together! :-)

New Years resolutions begin today...and I have three that I am going to start as soon as I can get around to it....:-) While I was in Washington, D.C. I bought a book called a Resolution Tracker. It was actually a pretty cool concept: The book contains little contracts to yourself and certificates of achievement that you can give yourself if you maintain the resolution for a certain amount of time. The book is based upon a concept that you can make or break any habit in 21 days. Now, the booklet inside the packet clarifies that this holds true depending on the difficulty of the resolution....like an addiction to Heroin would be difficult...an addiction to licking the backs of toads would be easier to kick, unless you owned the toad...then I guess it would be in your best interest to get rid of him.

So i am going to start that today...not the toad licking habit...the book....but not to worry...it isn't going to be part of the book club. I am awaiting the title of a good book from my friend to start my next book. Happy Reading! And Happy New Year!
