    It's soon time to make those New Year's resolutions again. For 2007 my goals I vow to:

    - Learn to speak fluent Swedish
    - See the Stew pass 100000 posts

    Short but sweet :) I'm pretty much happy with every thing else.

    Any you care to divulge?

    I would like to become a better father and husband.
    I will try to be a better human being.
    I also resolve to keep boring my stew family with inane poetry. :scheming:

    One of the good things that came from my visit to the doctor yesterday was I learned that I lost 6 lbs since my last visitI am nowe 15 lbs. from my goal I set last year. Sharon is still ahead of me though.

    As ever, loose weight! Pah! To grow decent cauliflowers on the allotment - something I am yet to master. To teach number one son to swim - he is frightened of the water and we are all water babies, so it is a tough one.

    I think that is about it! :)

    To have a closer walk with God.
    To be a better parent.
    To be a better wife.
    To lose more weight.

    To get in my craft room and start finishing unfinished projects that have been back there for ages. From mobiles to woodcarving they need to get DONE. Really just so I have more room back there to make more stuff.
    Also grow more actual Vegetables in my garden and not just pretty flowers. :rolleyes:

    The only resolution I plan on making for next year is to actually read the books I have bought and will buy. Way too many of them sitting on my shelf waiting their turn to tell me their story.

    Frank, whenever you learn a foriegn language it's easiest if you start with the parts of the body.

    Yes it is amazing how many times you have to refer to body parts when speaking a new language. You take them for granted in your native language. Good tip Evil.
