2011 Resolutions

Before I begin with my resolutions, I wanted to put a plug in for an album I recently bought and am enthused about. It's called "Sigh No More" by Mumford and Sons who is an English band that some categorize as folk. I don't care what it's called because I just think that it's brilliant music. Lyrics with substance and insight mixed with musicians who play instruments. Rather than expounding too much on the album, I'll just say that to me this album ranks up there with, "Eric Clapton: Unplugged" as pure genius and mastery. If you are interested in hearing more, check out their website:http://www.mumfordandsons.com

Now with that said, here are my 2011 resolutions:
Spend 250 hours in the gym (roughly 5 hours per week)
-Drop 20 pounds and get below 200 L-B-S.
-Build/Finish 2 (at least) morris chairs
-Finish The Morris Chair
-Finish the hardwood floors on the first floor and re-install the molding
-Learn these 3 songs (at least) for guitar:
1. Life without you (SRV)
2. Running on Faith (Clapton -Unplugged version)
3. Don't Think Twice (It's alright)

That's pretty much it, I surely can add more to the list but if by 12/31/2011 I have completed what is on there now I will be very pleased. I'll post progress to Facebook from time to time, but I encourage my friends and family to ask about my progress from time to time as it will keep me focused on my goals. Keeping focused and working toward the goal is the critical part of the journey.

Until we meet again in 2011!
