2010 Resolutions

Well I want to make 2009 count... Melissa said it best in her facebook when she said her's was LOVE, LIVE and LAUGH!
What better goal is that! I would like to copy that and say the same thing and that would be it.
BUT you all know me mine would have to be much longer and well IT'S Scott.
I am going to LIVE this year. 2010 I am going to LIVE it, to the fullness.
LAUGH, I am finding myself not laughing enough so YES I am going to LAUGH. I had many things to laugh at in 2009.
LOVE.. I would like to be able to LOVE more... LOVE more people and make sure they know I LOVE them.
As Lucy and I were at dinner the other night saying what are we going to do... WELL I never keep any reolutions that I make....
Lucy said SERVICE... So I might add that into the filter... I have no problem giving of my time, its the time I need to give.
And then we have Ben that tell me my goal for 2010 is to SAVE money to BUY a house!!! LOL good goal for him. since he has the degree and a wife and family and is buying a house... but its IOWA...
SO I would say yes, a goal for me is to save a few dollars... WE will see.
I paid off all my credit cards so THAT is a plus for me...
so if I had to come right down and give a list I could not.
but here are a few things I would like to see happen to me this year.
1. Save some Money
2. CLEAN out the OLD stuff
3. Organization of my Life
4. Scrapbook the rest of my life
5. Grow a better garden
