Happy
New Year!
Here are a few of my favorite New Year’s resolutions written
by famous people. Following these inspiring resolutions are my wishes for both you
and me for the new year of 2024. (written before midnight on 123123.)
“New Year`s is
a harmless annual institution, of no particular use to anybody save as a
scapegoat for promiscuous drunks, friendly calls, and humbug resolutions” –
Mark Twain
“Last
Year’s resolution was to lose 20 pounds – Only 30 pounds to go.”-Anonymous
“If
you want an interesting party, combine cocktails and a fresh box of crayons for
everybody.” -Robert Fulghum
“Come
gentlemen, I hope we shall drink down all unkindness.” William Shakespeare
“Every
New Year’s I have the same question, ` How did I get home?” - Melanie White
“This
New Year`s I was going to make a resolution never to be late again, but I
didn’t wake up until Jan. 2” -Melanie White
“Out
with the old, in with the new” is a fitting expression for a holiday that is
based on vomiting.” – Andy Borowitz
“I
was going to quit all my bad habits, but then I remembered that nobody likes a
quitter.” –Anonymous
Now, here are my personal resolutions:
To my Silver Sneaker Friends – “I promise not to let you do stupid stuff all by yourselves.”
I
think New Year’s resolutions often fail because people aim too high. Here is a
suggestion for an achievable resolution –“I promise not to eat the entire
‘family sized pizza` myself.”
“This
year I resolve to remember where I sat my coffee cup and my pickleball bag.”
“My
wish for 2024 is that we have a year filled with happiness, laughter and love.”
