It is very hard to come up with a new fresh list for this year, but I am worth it. 10 things that I promise myself to do in 2008.
* Give Yoga a try
* Start cranking the pasta machine
* Learn Italian
* Have a glass of wine in front of a Tuscan sunset
* Have a glass of wine in front of a Tuscan sunset
* Eat shrimp and grits in Savannah
* Increase my flavanoids in one hershey's kiss a day
* Ride in a Hot Air Ballon
* Get that new cookbook finished
* Always have a bag when the donation truck comes through the neighborhood.
* Turn 50 gracefully
It is an aggressive list; one that may require a little travel, some determination, and of course sacrifice. But I'm worth it!
Our hope for 2008 is that it will be a year full of promise, good health, and good friends.
Happy New Year y'all!

I absolutely adore your list! Happy New Year!!
Penny
Oh Sandi, come eat shrimp and grits at Myrtle Beach...much better! Good luck on that list...it seems like one that can be done!
xo
Sandi
I love your list! I'll take that Tuscan sunset...or Savannah! Either one!
And there is NO WAY you are turning 50!!! You look MAH-VE-LOUS!
Happy New Year, my friend!
Okay, I've already done 5 things on your list - amazing!:
I had a glass of wine while watching a Tuscan sunset; I KNOW I've eaten chocolate every day, maybe not just one Hershey's kiss though; I've turned 50, hopefully gracefully; I've taken many, many hot air balloon rides (the last one when we were in Australia); and I've tried yoga
I like your list. I need to try the others you've listed.
Happy New Year!
Hugs!

Well, I can cross that last thing off your list and tell you that turning 50 was more fun than I ever imagined it would be! The rest of your list looks like lots of fun and travel ahead.
I TURN 50 THIS MONTH! YIKES! I'm glad to have made it this far, but it feels very strange! I did buy a pair of glasses that have a 50 for the lenses. I figured humor would help.
Your list sounds fascinating! Sign me up!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
That is a fine list Sandi. We will conspire to ensure that there is nothing graceful at all about you turning 50!
Hi Sandi - I love your list! And we'll all get to do these things vicarously through your blog! (Altho, I think I may have to try and do a few of them for real!!)
Best wishes for the new year.
Great list!!! The hot air balloon ride will leave you breathless! Great experience! Turning 50 gracefully...piece of cake! : ) Learning Italian is one of my "things to do before I die" items! And you're right...you're worth it! Happy 2008!!

Lydia~ Piece of cake!

WHAT a fine list. I will join you on that Shrimp and Grits thing...something I have never tried (together) and have always wanted to!!! Especially in Savannah...when do we leave?
Keep us posted on how your list comes along! I want to see photos of that Tuscan sunset, I am sure it will be dreamy.......
Michelle
Alas the New Years resolution list. I haven't even had time to think about it. But you have a great one.
Wow! Great list, Sandi. Here's hoping you accomplish each and every one of those things. I don't do resolutions either, nor a list for that matter!! Maybe I should have a list but start on a much smaller scale than yours!! lol
Tell Bill we are finding out more on a daily basis how hard the RR can be. The "iffy" schedule is the worst part!! Can't plan anything!
Hugs,
Hope
A great list! You will love yoga!
Karla
You ARE worth it...go for it ! I'll bet you can do it all!
BTW...50 is FUN!
Shabby~ it is a Slow Travel GTG...everyone is invited!
Michelle~ that is a promise, does that make 11 promises?
Dee~ kinda-sorta
Hope~ that is exactly why he is not with the railroad any more!
Karly~ we'll see, I'm not sure I am stretchy enough for yoga
Tonja~ You make 50 look fun =D
Hey Sandi,
I'll meet you at the Lady and Sons for the shrimp and grits-it's the best you ever tasted. How about for your 50th? We'll all meet you there!
Holley
Great list- not too punishing- I like it and I hope you accomplish them all! Selfishly, especially the cook book!
Holley~ Lady and Son's it is (especially if the sons are there=D)
Greenie~ that cookbook has been in 'the works' for a while. I have just got to get r done.
Your list is great & you can do it all!
hugs, DebraK
I love your list and going to Savannah is always a good idea. I haven't had a glass of wine in Tuscany and only went a few feet up in a hot air balloon and chocolate is always a good idea. I think I need to make list like yours. Much better then being more organized, losing weight etc...
What a wonderful list! The hot air baloon ride sounds like fun.
Love the list! And would love to join you on a few! Let me know how you like yoga :o). I tried it once and threw out my hip.
