The new year

A new year a new you! How many times has that been said? I'm sure more than we want to admit. A new year comes along and we all want to make improvements to our lives, bodies, homes, finances and such. But after a few weeks we all give up and go back to what we were doing before. What were your new years resolutions? I made a few they are rather general because I want to try to keep them
1) Be kinder
2) Be a better me, mind, body and soul.
3) Better my financial situation
4) Add to our savings
5) Taking time for myself
6) Finally get the braces situation handled
All of these resolutions or goals are to help improve my life as a whole. Not being superficial accept for maybe the braces thing but that is for my health mainly. My teeth hurt because of how they sit so when they are fixed my mouth will stop hurting which is all I'm asking for. I've needed braces for 25+ years but never had the finances to do it. Now we do so I'm going to fix that before we don't any longer.
