Resolutions Check

Here's a progress report re:  my New Year's resolutions. I realize that this may not interest you, but I blog for myself as much as I blog for others.

• Not to read any partisan diatribes re: the 2020 elections. It's getting harder, but I'm generally managing to avoid them.
• Lose 10 lbs. Only 15 lbs to go.
• Add to our list of National Park visits & cross something off our bucket list. I have to wait until September when we'll visit Teddy Roosevelt & Glacier National Parks. [We've already made all of our lodging reservations.]
• Treat Sammy with more patience. I'd give myself a C+/B-.
• Help put out all our Christmas decorations. I have to wait until November.
• Work out at least 3X per week. I've been averaging 1-2 times per week. [I include mowing the lawn as a workout.]
• Continue spending an hour or so in 'quiet time' each day. I'd give myself an A-.
• Write a devotion book for the 2019 Orphan Grain Train Convention. I've written 3 potential books but haven't shared them with my "editors" yet.
• Receive a DNA report from Ancestry.com. I submitted a DNA sample at the end of December 2018. I'm reconciled to the fact that my sample must have been lost or flawed.
