Hi Everyone,

Happy New Year, Everyone! May 2010 be a happy year for you and your loved ones!... :star:

So now that the new year is coming up...

What are your "resolutions"? What do you want to "resolve"? What are your hopes and dreams for the upcoming year?

What are your thoughts for the previous year 2009? What are your thoughts about the next year 2010?

Another "weight loss Canada thread" in 2010, perhaps? Something else?

Lol..I'm still thinking my answers to those questions, as 2009 ends soon....hmmm.......

(I'll post later...as my internet server will cut me off in 1 minute....will dial back up again tomorrow...)

But feel free to discuss your answer here first......

Happy New Year, Everyone!.... :dance:

(my last post on vj for 2009....)

Hi Everyone,

Thanks for all your replies so far! Keep those 2009/2010 thoughts and resolutions coming! :thumbs:

On that note, it's only a few hours to go until 2010... :blink:

Here are some of my (Ant's) quick resolutions for 2010.....

-Pay of the immigration debt that I have collected in 2008/2009 for the I-751 and N-400....$1200+....

(Oh boy....How long would it take to pay that off?.....USCIS.... :angry: )

-Spend more time with family

-Lose the 'baby weight'

Well that's a start at least...lol...Any other resolutions and other thoughts....I'll write more about that in 2010....

Until then...3...2....1...Happy New Year, 2010 Everyone! :dance:

Wishing you and your loved ones all the best for 2010! May it be a happy year for everyone, indeed! :)

See you all in 2010 ! (lol...I'm going to bed early this year...by the time I wake up and post again..it will be next year already...lol...time warp....)

I'd like to lose 30 pounds. I say that every year but this year I really mean it! :lol:

Get a job that doesn't involve working with my husband and my inlaws and actually use my uni degree in one way or another.

Hi Everyone,

Hope you all had a Happy New Year/New Year's Eve!...

Thanks for all your replies so far! Keep those 2009/2010 thoughts and resolutions coming! :thumbs:

As for my New Years/New Years Eve 2009/2010......Not a good start for me here..lol...

This is how I 'celebrated'....

Went to sleep at 10pm (was too tired to stay up to watch ####### Clark, the ball drop, or whatever else was on tv....)....

And then slept and woke up at 12am, 2am, 4am, 6am, 8am, 10am...(every 2 hours to feed and change the baby...)

Then my son bit me...(he's growing teeth now)......Ouch!

I predict another year of sleepless nights and days for me......

Oh the joys of parenthood!

Another resolution for me:

-Clean up the house, especially the paperwork.....

Goodbye USCIS-related junk, now that I'm done with them? lol..... :unsure:
