Thank you for the good wishes Dave. I wish you well in 2007. I hope the Iowa ride goes right through Winterset and that it is at the time of year when Lilly could be there. Wish I could make it. Maybe 2008  Meg is a really sweetie Dave you can see her on the photo thread in the Off topic. Lilly thanks for the good wishes too and it is because of a native French speaker on the board that I want to learn the language.

You're anything but a simple woman.

My resolution last year was to finish another screenplay, it didn't happen but in turn I made a movie and wrote a few short screenplays, so I figured it was a decent trade off. This year I've made the choice to make myself emotionally, spiritually, and physically healthy. Not that I'm in like a dire position at the moment but I want to get better, still. In addition to that, which is more a goal over the next few years, I'm going to keep in touch with some friends that I've lost contact with over the last year. And, the huge one is to finish this movie "Greed" which my production crew and I have been trying to finish for the last 6 months. It's failed twice already (once cause we didn't have enough time and two because one actor walked off the set in a huff and another actor's dad died, so we needed to stop production). And so this third go around has to be the final one. So that's my resolution is to get this film done. Good luck to everyone with their resolutions.

Hi All and a Happy New Year. Good luck to all who have decided to undertake the dreaded New Years resolution, and for those who haven't Well, you're just being too damn good!  Kidding of course. I was going to say my old smoking addiction (once again)  But I wanted to get a jump on things this time around and actually smoked my last one nearly 4 months ago! Yes amazing as it sounds, I think the real thing that got to me was the guilt, a pure guilt and how much the people around me didn't like me smoking, everytime I lit up it felt like hell. Some 3 or 4 months ago I just really got fed up of smoking and I just decided to put a stop to it. Not very exciting to read I know, but just thought I would let Lilly, Lin and Satu know, as they especially expressed an interest last year, which I found extremely encouraging.

Well I guess it is the usual one for me..... get some weight off. This year I WILL DO IT. I am not very overwight but I need to shed a few pounds. It will be easier now I have a dog again.
Then I will try very hard to learn to speak French, well a little bit anyway.
Finally to get more organised.
Well I lost the pounds 50 in all. I was bigger than I thought. LOL Got myself more organised however I fell down on the French. Lazy I guess. It is hard to go to classes when I work such awkward hours. I wonder what I will come up with for 2008!!!

Fifty pounds! Congratulations, Lin ... that's wonderful. You certainly look great in those pictures that CvW posted for you a few days ago ... http://www.clinteastwood.org/forums/index.php?topic=5241.msg116610#msg116610  I didn't make a formal resolution, but at the beginning of 2007 I started doing my daily runs in the morning, before work, instead of the evening, afterwards. I didn't think I could keep it up because I am SO not a "morning person," but so far ... it's lasted, and it means I always have my evenings free. I've gotten to many more movies and other evening events and I've been able to do a lot more stuff "on the spur of the moment." (Before, if I wanted to go out on a weekday evening, I had to plan in advance to get up extra early and run in the morning, or else leave work early and run in the late afternoon.) I've enjoyed running in Central Park when it's actually light enough to appreciate all the beauty, too!
