Happy New Year!

rivkaNew Year's Eve has never been a big holiday for us; we spent this one sedately at home. We fed Alex early, and then had a special dinner for the two of us: beef tenderloin, steamed asparagus with lemon butter, asiago cheese bread, wine. Unfortunately, both Michael and I are feeling ill. He's coming down with some sort of cold, and I'm suffering from major fatigue and dizziness - I guess from the ear infection.
I do have New Year's resolutions this year, for the first time in a very great while.
1. Stop neglecting my health. Concretely: go to the dentist, get an annual GYN exam, and start paying more attention to getting vitamins into my diet. It would be an added bonus if I could possibly not walk around with a sinus infection for three weeks instead of getting medical attention promptly.
2. Don't sit down at the computer without either a planned list of things to do, or a time that I intend to get off. Because my surfing is getting out of hand - and it's not even good-quality social interaction, as those of you who have complained about my lack of LJ commenting can attest. It's just mindless compulsive reading that I often don't even enjoy.
3. Deal with one piece of household clutter every day.

The other week I was talking to my therapist & mentioned that my apartment often reflects my state of mind & realized that the reverse (converse?) is true. Organizing my space organizes me. So yesterday I finally set a bowl on the bookshelf by my door to dump my stuff (wallet, keys, whatever else is in my pockets) in. That way I'll spend less time running around from one pair of abandoned pants flung over the back of a chair to another.
