Haiku Friday: New Year’s Resolutions

Haiku Friday
My resolutions?
Eat better, exercise? Not
specific enough.

Spend more time with my
family, maybe even
be more domestic.

Look for the good, even
in a bad situation,
and be more helpful.

Prepare a facelift
for this blog – a new look for
a new year, new me.

I also will share
more stories with you – a look
deeper in my head.

Find time for lost loves:
knitting and the hum of an
old sewing machine

I want the new year
to be my best year yet – a
year of renewal.

Are you making resolutions for the new year? If so, what are they?

To play along for Haiku Friday, follow these steps:

1. Write your own haiku on your blog. You can do one or many, all following a theme or just random. What’s a haiku, you ask? Click here.

2. Sign the Mister Linky below with your name and the link to your haiku post (the specific post URL, not your main blog URL). DON’T sign unless you have a haiku this week. If you need help with this, please let me know.

3. Pick up a Haiku Friday button to display on the post or in your sidebar by clicking the button at the top.

REMEMBER: Do not post your link unless you have a haiku this week! I will delete any links without haiku!

  1. Those are really inspiring goals. I share quite a few of those with you.

  2. Happy New Year! I love new starts.

  3. Wonderful, lofty goals. I hope you are able to do them all. Me — I hope to do all the things I said I would do in 2008 but didn’t get done. 🙂

  4. I have some similar resolutions–happy new year!

  5. Ok, you got me. Haiku can make me do anything… maybe my resolution should be to participate in every Haiku Friday in 2009!

  6. I’m impressed with your goals and guess I need to devote some thoughts to mine. At the moment, I’ve not yet taken the time … but I did post Haiku earlier at Small Reflections and Happily Retired Gal. I’m hoping to publish Haiku at Sacred Ruminations before the day ends … but thus far inspiration hasn’t struck, so perhaps it will be a belated ‘ku?
    Happy New Year everyone!
    Hugs and blessings,

  7. I love that your lost loves are knitting and sewing! I gave my sewing machine to my in-law’s because it sat in a closet for so many years that I started to feel guilty that it wasn’t being used.

  8. I’ve decided to call my resolutions “intentions”….then maybe I won’t be inclined to fail…

    Good goals, Christina!

    Happy New Year!

  9. Great goals spelled out in ‘ku form. I like it a lot. I especially like the thought of “renewal.”
