Since I am entirely lacking in creative ideas of my own, I am stealing this idea from Mel, who stole it from Jodi, who stole it from somebody else. In an effort to escape the inevitable guilt that comes from not accomplishing my new year's resolutions and to finally find success in accomplishing (or not accomplishing) something I hereby give you my backwards resolutions for 2009.
In 2009 I will not.....
1. lose 20 pounds
2. go on a safari to Africa
3. go sky diving
4. start drinking alcoholic beverages
5. start smoking
6. abstain from chocolate
7. stop going to the gym
8. hire a maid
9. catch up on the laundry (except for maybe a few blessed seconds on very rare occasions upon which I will jump and shout "Hallelujah". Moments later I will be thrust back into reality when I notice the dirty clothes on my kids bedroom floor)
10. accept a position working for President elect Obama
11. move to North Dakota
12. move to Hawaii, sorry Wendy
13. run for mayor, or for any other elected office for that matter
14. stop reading
15. stop sleeping in on weekends and holidays, and any other chance I get
16. utter the words, "I'm pregnant"
17. win the lottery
18. sing the national anthem at a sporting event
19. stop loving my husband and children
20. stop being grateful for the many blessings I have
So what do you plan on not doing this year?

12 people have something to say:
I have enjoyed this so much--
I will not do #3, 4, 5, 6, 14, 16, 17, 19, and 20.
I'm sure you will NOT do any of those things ; )
I love it! What a cool post.
LOL! This is great! Hmm...This year I will not constantly worry about my weight.
I won't grow a beard this year, or rob a bank.
That is so stinkin' cute! I like #16. Sorry you can't move to Hawaii. We'll be here just one more year - wanna come visit?
#10 just cracks me up.
I totally love and get #9-
I like your list. Every one of them.
LOL! "Utter the words I'm pregnant." Nope- that would be written in my suicide letter. )
This list was fun!!
I can relate to a lot of those. Skydiving is on my list of things I will NEVER do. I think I would rather crash in a plane than jump out of one, even though crashing would kill me.
"I'm pregnant" no way, no how.
I will not go to bed at 9 pm like I know I should.
That's a fun twist!
I will not...
Attend Relief Society.
I have a career in Primary;)
love this! might have to steal it too!! (if you don't mind, that is!)
