Finish getting out of debt. It has been a challenge due to struggling with PTSD and overspending being one of my bad coping mechanisms. It as been an on going battle let me tell you! I am working on it and getting closer. Hopefully this year will do it, if I can control the PTSD.

If I could magically stick to my New Year's resolution, this year, I would want to stick with getting and staying healthier. I am about 75 lbs overweight, still. I have lost 40 lbs since June 2021 and only have that far to hit my goal.
I want to be healthier because I don't want my children to lose their mother at a young age, as I did mine. My mother was 43 when I lost her. I was 22. It was HARD!
I was 8 ½ months pregnant with my second child and she had a sudden pulmonary embolism from a blood clot that broke loose from a shear break on her ankle that happened two weeks prior. She just keeled over and was gone in a moment.
I have too much to live for and experience with my family, my kids in particular. I know that being overweight and lackadaisical in my exercise habits will catch up to me at some point. I'd rather it be later than sooner. I'll be 40 in February and I don't want to go like that.
That's why I would choose this particular resolution to magically stick to.

Not really a resolution, but I pray every night for myself and loved ones to be Safe, Healthy, and Happy. Along those lines, since I'm "too old to run, and to tired to fight" (unless I'm cornered), I'm going to try and get out to shoot about once per month - an activity that I enjoy a lot.

If I could magically see a resolution through it would be to quit all tobacco products. I didn’t not set this as a resolution but I am trying to quit right now. I am 72 hours in and not planning on giving in.

My New Year resolution is to become a better role model for my children. Teaching them to be patient and slow to anger and improving our overall health by exercising. Also by keeping God at the certain of our lives.

I have had the same resolution for quite some time. It just gets renewed interest every January. I did good and I lost some weight last year. So, if I could continue what I started last year, I think I could lose more weight, albeit, it was a slow process.

This is the year I will master praying for my enemies.
If I could magically see a resolution through to completion it would be to be more kind to myself and others. Being kind to ourselves and others can create positive mental change which our society could benefit from, including myself.

Fix the house and land by the way it the one grandpa Keller bought the land awhile after coming home from WW1 and moving his new wife to a an bright and growing community. (NOT! in my opinion) The house I live in is different then grandpa because it's over 100 year's old which is good and bad. I am disable so living on my VA pension and trying to keep up the old girl is hard since my parents let it maintenance slip for the same reason. It all minor stuff now but too much for me physically and in the pock book too. I am not take out NO loan because that a slippery slope I don't want to go down at all, so one project at a time when there money Lord willing and the body don't hurt too much.

I'd love to be able to stick to not drinking more then 3 times a week, in proper portion sizes. The military is not to blame for my drinking, but it did make it more fun! Memories of partying before early morning PT sessions always bring a smile to my face, and we were in such good shape it didn't even matter we were running on no sleep and 100 proof captain!
