Edit. Write.  <\/p>\n<p>To wit, a minimum of 15 minutes per day on writing activities.  Minimum.  Whatever it takes.<\/p>\n<li>Keep the weight off, and <a href=\"http:\/\/fivehundred.diaryland.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">walk 1,000 miles to nowhere<\/a>.<\/ol>\n<p>If I can do all that, I&#8217;ll be a pretty happy camper for 2005.<\/p>\n<p>On which note, a very happy New Year&#8217;s Eve to you all!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So, a review of last year&#8217;s resolutions: 1.
