Resolution re-cap

So I was looking today at my list of 2009 resolutions. Just to refresh your memory, here's what they were:

1. get out of non-mortgage debt
2. exercise 4 days a week
3. give up French fries
4. give up carbonation

Hmm. How did I do? Well, we're not out of non-mortgage debt. We bought a minivan, and we financed it. But that's the only non-mortgage debt we have. We do have a credit card that we use mostly for gas, and we pay it off each month, so it doesn't accrue interest. I don't count the credit card.

I exercised four days one week.

I have cut way back on French fries, but I do still occasionally indulge. But once every couple of weeks is lots better than two or three times a week. I'd call that progress.

I still like to drink soda. But as with the French fries, I've done much better. And honestly, I choose Sprite or other non-caffeinated drinks more than I choose Coke, so that's improvement.

Okay, so I failed on all four. Obviously those weren't good resolutions. (Has nothing to do with my willpower.)

For 2010:
1. stay out of non-mortgage, non-vehicle debt
2. exercise four days a week, at least once a month
3. eat French fries no more than once every two weeks
4. drink soda no more than once a week

What was that about raising the bar?
