too many ambitions.

[mizkit]

I love the new year. It may be my favorite holiday, even if it's perfectly silly for it to fall ten days after the solstice instead of on it. But I love the whole fresh start idea and I love resolutions and ambitions and just all of it. The only problem is I have too many ambitions (a statement which probably doesn't come as a surprise to anybody

France is not the only place they speak French, you know...

when I'm not brain dead and regain the ability to peel myself off the couch for anything besides bed, food, bathroom, I will look up the titles of some of my french dictionaries/verb books that might be handy to have available while you're over there....

If I recall correctly you took photos and made calendars. I think you can check off made art that's not writing. Or even the Gryphon Beavh storytelling - though that's closer to werk.

Getting Fit

Taking your child for a walk everyday helps both of you get fit.

On that whole French thing, here's something another of my friends posted:

Back at the end of the summer, a sweet, dear friend of mine gave me a 3-month membership to LiveMocha.com so that I could brush up on my French. I majored in French at university, and while I've managed to keep a decent bit, I've forgotten quite a bit, as well. I was in dire need of distraction at the time, so a gift of a quarter of online French lessons was most especially welcome.

This morning, I got an e-mail from LiveMocha, offering a year's subscription for $9.95 - as opposed to $9.95/month or $99.95/year. A New Year's special, good till 3 January at midnight. Yes, I jumped all over it.

Yay! So I'm adding "brushing up on my French" to my list of 2012 resolutions. I was fluent once upon a time, and I have hopes of getting there again. Perhaps in 2012.

Thought you might be interested.
