      I don't do resolutions any more....They are just set ups for disappointment and self recrimination.  I do
make plans that have contingencies. 
      I plan to watch the movie again on my anniversary date,  Jan 5th.  And try and reaffirm my ideas of doing
what makes me happy.  Not always think of everyone else first.  That has been a tenant of mine all my life.  Since seeing the movie, I have made a few changes like that...That was making all my trips possible.

Happy Anniversary Date Janice!!!

I like what you say about New Years resolutions as well. I don't tend to make any outright resolutions since I think that making positive steps in your life should be an everyday experience. It seems that we do have a common trait in that I too have to watch thinking about everyone else first. I have a tendency to that and I always have. Many times I do that and then I end up mad at myself or I end up hurt.

I always make them and then always feel badly about failing. I'm going to call them 'goals' instead:  (in no particular order)

-overcome my more frequent bouts of depression

-find satisfying work and get my mother out here with me

-nurture my existing friendships and make new friends

-be more active physically, theoretically improving mental and physical health and reducing weight

:sigh: and that's just the things I think might be do-able...

Do you have any BBM-related New Year's resolutions?

  Um, drink more Whiskey and find a cowboy of my own.     ;)

Best of luck in reaching your goals, Lynne. If anyone can do it -- you can! You're very brave.  :)

Hi all of you,
I can't say that I make New Years resolutions......BUT I'm utterly happy that I went and saw this movie that so got hold of me. I'm so happy for the Internet because my life and world has becomed so much larger and risher (sp?)  :laugh:. I'm saving for a trip to New York, maybe we can meet there some of us... ;).

I want to wish you all a very happy 2008!

That's a great idea, Janice. I'll do the same on my anniversary date - Sat 26 Jan.  :D

Happy Sat. 26th to you!

Thank you kindly, Artiste. The weekend of Jan 26 is a long weekend here in Australia, celebrating Australia Day, so I will have some extra time up my sleeve and might treat myself to watching the BbM documentaries, as well as the movie! A fine treat, indeed!  :D

Hello Friends! Gee its been a long time.  My idea of a BBM New Year resolution is for people across different aspects of society to respect, accept and admire wonderful glbt friends who are out and happy.  Happy New Year to all of my fellow Brokies (its been a whiles since ive been on Bettermost regular)  I think of you, and Jack and Ennis.  Heath too :'(
May you have a healthy, happy and prosperous 2012. Whatever you wish for too!  8)

Great idea, Truman.

In my experience, Jimmy is very generous when you ask permission to use his work.

I have his permission to use the BetterMost bean label he made, which is why I've been playing around with it.

I always tell him what I've done with the label, and I know he enjoys to hear about it.
