New Year's Resolutions

I'm not a fan of New Year's resolutions. At. All. I think it is just something that is meant to be broken. Many people will set goals to get healthier, whether that be to lose weight, start exercising, eat more veggies and fruits, or quit smoking, to name a few. Within a few months they will have failed miserably. Case in point,  the YMCA will become a mad house beginning January. All those people that set New Year's resolutions will have joined the gym. By March, the gym will be back to the usual crowd because the New Year's resolutions will be a distant memory.
Sure I could always use improvement in my life but I don't think a new year provides any more incentive to do so. I'm a person that likes to set goals. For example, I set goals and achieved training for and completing a 1/2 marathon (five to be exact) and then a full marathon. Other goals I hope to accomplish are to have our house paid off by the time I'm 40 (okay, that was strongly influenced by who I married), snow ski before I'm too old, complete a triatholon, etc. But these were/are not New Year's resolutions, more like a bucket list, I suppose.  My point is, I'm in complete support of people that want to improve their lives and set goals to do so, but don't bother setting a New Year's resolution if you don't intend to follow through, it's annoying to us year round goal setters.
Now stepping down from my soap box.
