New Year’s Resolution
Heidi January 7th, 2008
I’m going to tell y’all something that I plan to do.
But it makes me nervous.
Even though it’s not that big of a deal–I’m still afraid of committing to it.
You see, I try really, really hard to take my commitments super seriously.
I only say I’m going to do something when I know for absolute, positive, sure-shootin’ that I’m going to do it.
And if there’s any question about me possibly not doing it, then I won’t commit to it.
Occasionally, this creates tension with Prince Charming…..

“Heidi, will you please do the dishes after dinner tonight?” he’ll kindly ask.
“Tonight? Well, I was going to scan some pictures, but….. I’ll try to do the dishes,” I vaguely respond, avoiding eye contact.
“You’ll try?” he repeats with confusion.
“Well, yeah, I don’t know if I will for sure, but I’ll try,” I explain with a pathetic grin.
Awkward pause.
“Heidi, either you will or you won’t….. So which one is it?” he probes gently.
He watches me patiently, waiting for a commitment.
A yes.
Or a no.
I squeeze my eyes shut and clench my teeth tight.
“Okay, fine,” I concede, “Yes, I will do the dishes after dinner tonight.”
Charming shakes his head and smiles, “Thanks, Love.”

So here’s my confession to y’all…..
[Deep breath!]
In an effort to be more consistent with my blog, here is my goal:
Post every day: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday
Don’t plan to post (unless Charming’s off with the Boy Scouts and the mood strikes just right): Saturday, Sunday

Okay, I said it.
I might regret it later, but I really, really hope not…..
Wish me luck!! :)
