TERESA’S NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTIONS…FOR HER FELLOW SQUAWKERS


image In the spirit of celebrating the birth of the New Year with all of its glorious possibilities, I set out to follow Lisa’s example and make a list of New Year’s Resolutions.  But since I know I won’t be doing aerobics five days a week or giving up dark chocolate M&M’s for more than...oh...ten minutes, I decided it would be much easier if I came up with some New Year’s Resolutions for my fellow Squawkers.  Because after all, isn’t that what friends are for?

1) I resolve that Lisa shall never again wear her tiara while cleaning the commode and scooping the puppy poop out of the back yard. 
2) I resolve that Liz will be locked in a room with a black light and forced to listen to Metallica and Aerosmith records until she’s stops chanting, “Rock the Casbah!  Rock the Casbah!”
3) I resolve that Connie will get a cat.
4) I resolve that Christina will stop referring to herself as “LA DODD” in casual conversation. 
5) I resolve that Eloisa will stop insisting that we call her “Lady Eloisa” and making us kiss her wedding ring just because she’s married to an Italian knight. 

Now since turnabout is fair play and I um...actually stole this idea from Connie Brockway while she wasn’t looking, I’m going to make this blog a STICKY POST and let the other Squawkers come in BELOW with their own resolutions throughout the day.  I’m sure theirs for me will be something along the lines of..."I resolve that Teresa will stop being so thoughtful and generous toward her fellow man (and woman) and learn to pamper herself with pedicures, massages and overflowing bags of dark chocolate M&M’s.” I’ll be out of town all day today and will look forward to reading their noble and high-minded suggestions for me when I return. 

So how about YOU?  If YOU could make one New Year’s Resolution for a spouse, child, parental unit, or dear friend, what would it be???
