The rule I thought up just now is that I have until the end of January to start the new year.  Of course I realize that I can start a new year anytime.  It's just arbitrary.  But something about January gives me hope that this will be the year I lose weight, get in shape, get organized, and become a better person in general.  I refuse to give up the hope.  There's a good chance that I would weigh more, have fewer muscles, be more confused and be a cranky old woman if it weren't for new year's resolutions.  I'm grateful for the hope.  Luckily I also have a lot of help available to me.
