Wow!! We had the same resolution at almost the same time! Mine for January 1, 1989 was to never make any more New Years Resolutions. Luckily, I have been able to stick to that one. Funny thing I remember it because that was about 4 years into a 15 year drinking spree for me~

I stopped drinking 2-22-1999 and have been without a drink every since. Staying sober one day at a time has been my daily resolution ever since, and my life gets better every year because of it. It wasn't the New Year that got me to do it [obviously] but an intense desire to get out of the horrible pit of existence I had let myself descend into. It was a humiliating arrest and a lot of soul searching followed by resolve and hard work to follow through to a better life.

The best time to improve life is not always when we turn the page on the calendar. Sometimes the time for a life changing resolution is right now~
