    Happy New Year

    I posted this under the category of food and drink because that seems appropriate for New Year's Eve, don't you think?  And even though it is nearly 8 PM and I sitting at my computer writing a blog post, that does not mean I am lame and have no plans for New Year's Eve.  No, we have late dinner reservations, so there.

    Since it is the time of New Year's Resolutions, I am going to post mine for my blog here, in hopes that the threat of public humiliation will make me actually follow through on them:

    • Get back to a regular posting schedule.  The holidays and the need to spend what rare time I have off from social events on that minor little detail called real work have wreaked havoc with my blog posts.
    • Catch up on comments.  See above.
    • Re-design this blog.  My right and left columns are too narrow and they are banners and ads off, which bugs the you-know-what out of me.  I'm hiring my friend Suzanne, who designed the Wordstrumpet Banner to do it for me.
    • Do more networking on Blog Catalog and the new place I've found, Yuwie.  I'm lying--I didn't find it, Derek the Welshman told me about it.
    • Check all links and get them all live again.  For some inexplicable reason, all the author links now feed right back to this blog.  Weird. 
    • Post photographs.  Yes, I now own a digital camera!  All I have to do is figure out how to get the photos from the camera to the computer.  I know, I know, it isn't hard, I just haven't had time to download the software.
    • Finish the Make Money Writing Online book.  I am really, really, really going to do this.
    • Celebrate being a blogger.  It has opened up a whole new world to me, introduced me to wonderful new friends, and gotten my some great clients. 

    So, here's to a fabulous 2008.  Happy New Year, y'all!  (I'm going to Nashville in 11 days so I can say that.)
