Larry Cotrell Posted January 1, 2017 Report Posted January 1, 2017 Happy New Year MormonHub, What are some of your resolutions for 2017? Quote
pam Posted January 1, 2017 Report Posted January 1, 2017 To have 6 months financial reserve (income equivalent in savings) just in case and 3 months of food supply. I'm at 5 months and 1 1/2 months respectively. Sunday21 and Backroads 2 Quote

I'm at 5 months and 1 1/2 months respectively. That's quite impressive. Well done Pam! Sounds like you should be able to achieve these goals well before the end of 2017 Quote
askandanswer Posted January 1, 2017 Report Posted January 1, 2017 (edited) I think instead of making a set of New Year's resolutions, it might be better to make a set of one month resolutions every month some of which might be the same as the previous month, and some of which might be new, for the new month.

Backroads Posted January 1, 2017 Report Posted January 1, 2017 (edited) Invest 2 hours a week either in writing or my online store. Read the standard works (I have done this in a year before, so I know it's attainable) Redecorate my kitchen. Because... it gets insults from nice people. Build up a six month food and financial reserve. Edited January 1, 2017 by Backroads Quote
zil Posted January 1, 2017 Report Posted January 1, 2017 In order to make a resolution, don't you need to have a former solution where a significant portion of the solvent has evaporated, leaving the solute less dissolved than you'd like, thus requiring resolution? I'm afraid I have no formerly dissolved but currently insufficiently dissolved solutes wherewith to make resolutions. Alas. Backroads 1 Quote

And of course I had him read it and he thought it was hilarious. Quote

I'm afraid I have no formerly dissolved but currently insufficiently dissolved solutes wherewith to make resolutions. Alas. That's only one way to do it. A precipitate is actually a type of resolution. And if you have a constituent that has a higher vapor pressure than the solvent you could set up a still to receive said constituent. Then you could sell the resolution to the nearest Spec's. If a precipitate is desired, we could start with cloud seeding. Preferably, a virus in the cloud could hopefully cause anarchy on the internet, bringing this technological error to its knees. Quote

That sounds like way too much work for 2017. I've just resolved not to do that. Congratulate me on my new resolution. Quote

askandanswer Posted January 2, 2017 Report Posted January 2, 2017 I've made a whole bunch of resolutions. Now I just need to find someone to keep them for me. I'm tempted to keep them locked up in a drawer where no one will ever see them. Quote

Guest Posted January 2, 2017 Report Posted January 2, 2017 In seriousness, I'm going for at least 3 pages of scripture per day, and regular, scheduled temple attendance. I'm also going to continue last year's quest for finding joy in whatever circumstance, because I like the fruit that one has yielded. Quote
anatess2 Posted January 3, 2017 Report Posted January 3, 2017 My resolution is not to have a new resolution. I mean... I've never made one I kept in my entire life so maybe the idea is... don't make one. Quote
mirkwood Posted January 4, 2017 Report Posted January 4, 2017 (edited) @Vort should be given an infraction for posting a picture of Arsene Wenger. Seriously. As to goals. Shoot more. Train harder. Lose the weight I put back on in 2016. Oh and be nicer to @MormonGator, that one should survive about six minutes... Edited January 4, 2017 by mirkwood Quote
