It's the start of a New Year. 

I would like to blog more.  I want to learn new things, try new recipes, read more books.

My husband's goals for the year are to be more kind and have more patience. 

My goal might be to have more patience when I'm driving, and not get so uptight over jerky drivers.  It's Utah - what should I expect?

I'm feeling sort of bad.  One of my daughter set a goal to not drink pop last year.  Both her and her husband accomplished this goal.  A couple of the guys at work started making dirty diet cokes, and I got really into it.  I would tell my daughter about it - and it didn't help with her goal.

I promised my daughter that I would buy her the first dirty drink of the year - as she had a pop again.  She got this tiny little thing - put some coconut and peach flavorings into a Pepsi along with a bit of half & half.  She said that she didn't miss the pop that much, but the dirty Pepsi - well, just maybe I had gotten her off to a year full of pop!

I'm going to try and be a better influence in my kids lives!
