new year's resolutions

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Sorry I'm posting these late... I started school last week and I have one humdinger of a schedule!! I also made a huge life changing decision that has made me have a really hard week! Anyway, here are my new year's resolutions for 2009! I usually set resolutions, but I haven't always been so good at keeping them! I'm doing a lot of praying and working on these, and I hope that I can see improvement over the year! I'll be posting a little about each resolution, why I decided on a particular resolution, and a little bit about what I'm learning, or seeing happening in myself.
