Click-a-Pic Challenge #26 "I Resolve to..."

[shutterspeed]

With the beginning of each new year there is a promise and a hope that it'll be better than the year before it. People make promises to themselves to start the year off “right”. They make resolutions or goals to achieve throughout the coming year.

For this week's challenge I thought it might be interesting to photograph our resolutions or goals for the new year.

Gonna start a new diet? What does that entail?
Gonna start a new exercise program? What does it look like?
Do you want to travel more, read more, spend more time with your children/significant other/pets/grandchildren?
Do you want to try some exotic cooking, start a new hobby or pursue an old one?

Any of these things are excellent ideas and goals to have. Now go out an photograph what you resolve to do in 2010!!

If you have any questions please feel free to post them or email me. I'm here to help.*

for instance, instead of mashed potatoes with our meatloaf...i made garlic & herb roasted potatoes! :)

I really need to get more active, we live in a part of the world that allows us to do so much- I need to take advantage of this.
Happy New Year to all- hope it is filled with Love and Laughter:heartu:
