I hope you enjoyed the Barry Manilow song of yesterday. That song perfectly expresses how I often feel about the turning of the year. Manilow has taken a lot of flack over the years about his maudlin songs, and I admit he does go over the top, but he has written and sang some great songs over the years. I remain a fan. In fact, the Manilow song below -- "All The Time" -- is one that I sang in a high school talent contest years ago and won first place.
I posted over on The Great Slim Down and made a few minor changes to the template. Several of us are going to continue to fight the weight war in 2007. Victory will be ours in 2007!
This is a good time to place my overall goals for 2007. Here they are in all their unfilled (yet) glory.
1. Be a better Christian, sibling and friend.I think that's enough. If I do half of those, I'll have a good 2007. What resolutions do you make? Or do you make any? Some people don't because they don't want to get depressed when they fail. I make them every year. Some of them I keep. Some I don't. But I always think it helps to have yearly goals rather than just living day to day. It gives me purpose.
2. Finish and edit Darkness, Oklahoma, and submit to publishers/agents.
3. Finish and edit Dragons Gather, and submit to publishers/agents.
4. Finish and edit Figments, and submit to publishers/agents.
5. Finish, edit and self-publish my humor book Floozy & Me. (Yes, the title changed.)
6. Edit Murder at the Witch's Cottage, and submit to publishers.
7. Lose weight by breaking my emotional addiction to food.
8. Sing a song a day. (No, really.)

10. Do one thing new a week.
11. Continue to publish this blog and enhance its content.

Gosh, I am sorry to read that you fell and hurt your ankle and wrist.
Have I missed something along the way...have you always had numbness in your right leg and foot? Hmm maybe I should look deeper into your archives.
Those are wonderful goals for 2007!I wish you the very best with them.
When I broke my back, Rain, nerves got pinched and I have some areas of numbness on my right leg and foot. They were almost completely numb, but now I have most of the feeling back, just areas where the feeling hasn't returned. God willing, though, I should regain all feeling over the next few months as I continue the various therapies.
