I'm generally not a resolutions person, but I thought I would make an exception for this year.
1. Get in Better Shape
Yeah, yeah, this is your standard resolution. At my annual physical last month, I was up a few pounds heavier than the previous year and weigh more than I have in 20 years. Need to do better in 2025.
2. Drink More
This seems to go completely against item #1 and warnings from the surgeon general. I'm a social drinker and primarily have a beer when playing trivia or at a poker night. I may also have a glass of wine or cocktail at a restaurant. Basically, I need to get out more socially in 2025 and that means more alcohol.
3. Go On The Ya Jagoff! Podcast
In honor of my blog's 20th anniversary, I want to celebrate by appearing on their podcast. I was on this podcast early in COVID, but it would be fun to join the crew in person. Hi John and Rachael!
4. Read More Books
Pre-COVID, I used to take the bus and Metro to work every day. Now, I almost always drive to the office. The good news is that I listen to podcasts more, but it's at the expense of reading. I only finished 5 books in 2024. I really should take about 15-20 minutes a day before I go to sleep to read.
5. Donate Blood
I generally donate blood about once every two years when there is a blood drive in my community. Doing this once or twice this year should be realistic.
6. Exercise More
This goes along with #1 and is your standard resolution. I'm being really specific though. When I write exercise, this really means playing pickleball more and working more games as a soccer referee.
7. Finish the Winnipeg-North Dakota Blog Post
I wrote about eating in Winnipeg and attending a Jets-Penguins hockey game, but I still haven't shared my experiences crossing the border and exploring Winnipeg.
8. Win My Fantasy Baseball and Football Leagues
Not sure this counts as a resolution since I only have limited control over the results, but I'd like it to happen!
9. Watch a Pittsburgh Team Win a Title
Same as #8 except I have absolutely no control over this.
10. Buy a New Pair of Tennis Shoes
You got me. I wanted to have a list of 10 items and couldn't think of anything else. I mean, I could have written "volunteer more" or "spend more time with my family," but I already have get in better shape and exercise more above, and those are your standard resolutions. I really need a new pair of tennis shoes and this one seems attainable!
