Well there is so much that I can't change but one thing I can do is try to be nice to people and remember to smile at least once in a while - well maybe I can try once a day! Remain off the smokes too.

Hmmmm well on a purely selfish note, I plan on attending at least 2 Letterhead meets. And I plan on remodeling the kitchen, and getting the yard more beautiful. Then for the kids.......I want to take them to Kona Hawaii!!!! They are great traveling companions. I love them so much. Happiest New Year to you all!

For the first time.... my number one check for the ensuing year will have the correct year on it! An....Im gonna crash that party at YOUR house!

This year I hope to fall more in love with my dear wife Janis (26 years and lovin it!)
I hope to finally stablize our income and perhaps even sort of retire to become our own client full-time. Just think of the stuff I could build without the client always putting on the brakes!
Maybe we can start building the ultimate studio/house at last.
And then there is the hard stuff...
like becoming a better person. and being more productive. and helping around the house more. and the toughest...being neater.
Here goes!!!

No..Im not there yet... You must be in grand shape if you had to ask...????/ Besides ..you said Jan 2nd...sounded like a sign person/procastinator party but I didnt get around to asking...I got paint on my hands......doncha know? Happy New Year GMHA.
I think after everything that has happened in my life, especially over the last year...
all the things I look back on that I did or didn't do that I should have...
all the times I passed on an opportunity because of insecurities...
all the times I opened my mouth, only to shove my foot so far in my toes stuck out my ears...
all the times I took for granted the people and things in my life...
Man... shoot me if I didn't learn from all that. I have the opportunity laying in front of me to better my life and darn it if I'm not gonna take it and run. The road may be rocky or smooth, straight or winding, but it won't be easy. Nothing worth having is...
I believe everything happens for a reason, although it might not be apparent til farther down the road.
A great big THANK YOU to all my 'family' here at this site. You will never know what a huge impact you have had on me in my life.
Hug your family members and friends and tell them how much they mean to you... and also that person that looks back at you in the mirror...

Prof: Get more orginized( especially paperwork), increase customer base, move into a new shop, Go to at least 2 meets this year, and get the 2002 meet more planned out.
Personally: Remember who Dana is at the 2 meets , Spend more time with my family, maybe loose wieght or quit smoking( one or the other,not both this year), And most importantly....STAY OUT OF THE HOSPITAL!!

(1) Get a hold on my business and run it instead of it running me. (2) Learn to say 'NO' more often.
You know the old card that says "failure to plan ahead on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part", well, that's the way I feel about business right now, I don't plan to go into 2002 being 2 months behind.

Last year I quit smoking for New Years... I did quit, so this year I'm opening another "Creation Studio". I might focus on buying another house too. This one is seeming smaller.

Wow Jill, talk about bring up a dead thread!
I can't even follow a resolution to not make any more resolutions!
2006 I plan on getting more grip over the business and how I deal with customers and attract more of them. Actually, I've already started but seems nobody around here is at their own businesses this week so I'll have to wait til after the 1st.

I'm a brief man myself but I like 'em in vibrant colors, not your usual tidy whities.
If yer gonna wear boxers you may as well just go commando in regular shorts... or do like I do, wear swimtrunks every day. You get the support but the mesh lets ya breathe..
hahahahaaha

Mine is to make more money by charging more, and giving folks good service and nice-looking signs. Drum up more business with monthly cold calls. Also do get out of debt. Maybe walk more with Justis. Get rid of clutter. Go to Stewart's meet in May. Love....Jill

As silly as this will sound, when revisited in a couple of years...
I resolve to enjoy a vacation that Shirley and I have worked for, for many months.
We will enjoy and will get back to "reality" on April 1, 2006.
This thread is gonna be interesting to read in another couple of years!!
Happy New Year to everyone!!!

Looking back 5 years does one good once in a while.
This year's resolutions are somewhat the same, although we made a few of the past ones come true.
I still want to fall MORE in love with Janis. That one is pretty easy.
Stablizing our income is now largely a matter of paying off our long term debt... and in the five years since the last post we have made over half of it go away. I'm hoping to have it gone in four more or less.
The ultimate studio is now finished... the dream house still a couple years off.
The hard stuff... becoming a better person, being more productive, helping around the house more... these things are still very much a work in progress.
As far as being neater.... well.... we are what we are.
Happy new year ALL!
