Well folks, it's the end of January. Have you stuck with your New Year's resolution?
I actually do make New Year's resolutions, and I tend to make them specific rather than vague. This year...after running out of vitamins, or forgetting to take them, putting off getting new contact lenses, letting my hair grow two-inch roots, and stressing over things that never got better with stress...I decided to take better care of myself.
So far I've been doing it. I finally researched the Net all day one day, and found a place to buy my vitamins...a year's worth of my multi-vitamin, and a lot of my biotin supplement (not sure yet what a year's worth of that would be, since other people in my family take it as well)...at a substantial discount. By substantial I mean, a six-month supply of the multi-vitamin cost less than a three-month supply at my local b & m store. The biotin was about half the cost too.
And I have been remembering to take them.
I got new contact lenses. I did my hair. As far as stress...how to put it. It finally occurred to me that many, if not most, of my personal idols...Marilyn Monroe, John Lennon, Joe Strummer, Kurt Cobain, Michael Hutchence...died young. I don't want to die young.
I still need to get a haircut. That's about it for my current list of things to do re the New Year's resolution.
