Resolutions 2015

Starting to compile a list of resolutions for the coming year. Most are things I have been working toward but had preliminary steps before I could get there.

First of all as a general statement I am going to focus a lot more on esthetics this coming year. House, yard, car, clothes. 

Before I could focus on appearances, I had to focus on function. Wiring, insulation, health and general vehicle functioning, among other things. Truth is, esthetics are the easiest part. 

Going to start fairly small, sunless tanning lotion, getting the house in better order and cleaned up. Been working on those a little but will accelerate efforts. 

Also now that health is improving, going to work more on fitness. Joined the fitness center. Just waiting for it to open. They offer sunless tanning with membership but I'm not sure I'll use that with risk. Of skin cancer involved. Maybe technology has changed. Have to check further. 

Going to focus more on artistic endeavors this year. Once decorations are put away and holes patched up (maybe one room at a time) I'm going to paint murals on walls in all the rooms, as I've been planning for a very long time. Just wasn't too practical while I was working on wiring and different renovations. Some of those are still going on but not quite as much. 

I can finally get to building the water features in the front and back yards. 

If I have the money, going to start re-stuccoing the house. Starting with the front. Use a smooth finish colored stucco. Then maybe paint murals on the house as well. 

I like this neighborhood. Can't stand neighborhoods that look like the houses are cloned. No two houses in this neighborhood look anything alike. Think I may go with a greenish tint. There are now six houses on this street that are some shade of brown, one other house which is white and one which is a light blue. Brick red could also work. Lots of time to think about it.

And I am going to improve my social life. Getting back out to karaoke on occasion is a first step. I'll work on other ideas over time. I have more options since my transportation and finances are improved.  My views have not changed about the social environment here. However, I have seen a rising trend of people that actually agree with me on various levels. It's slow but it is happening.
