Happy New Year! I’m not a big believer in resolutions so instead of all of those heavy life changing resolutions we are going to post something fun we want to accomplish this year.

Sherry: I am going to learn to kayak this year. I say it every year and I never get out there and give it a try.

Edith: I don’t know much about writing poetry, but I think it’s fun to try. I resolve to write a poem for each of my family member’s birthdays this year. And maybe for the Wickeds’ birthdays, too!

Liz: Oh, boy – like I need anything else to do! Actually, I’d been planning to try a new workout routine to keep the boredom away. I ordered P90X3 – so I’m going to complete the 90 days of the program. At some point…probably not in the first 90 days of the year!

Barb: Oy. I made the mistake of looking back at our resolutions from last year. We did great on the writing ones–books turned in, books launched, series renewed and sold. The personal stuff is more challenging. But here goes: I resolve to enjoy being in Maine more this summer. To take a trip to Monhegan and another to Bar Harbor and to spend some serious time at the Boothbay Harbor Historical Society (which will only partially be work).

Julie: Liz, I may join you in a fitness goal, but I don’t think of that as fun. :-) My goal is to keep up with a gratitude journal. Looking forward to my first book being published in the fall, and I’d love to stay focused, but enjoy the journey. Day one–I am so, so grateful for my Wicked Cozy friends.

Jessie: I want to learn some basics of Icelandic. I have been scouting out some online courses and am excited about giving it a try. I’ve wanted to visit Iceland for years and would love to go there with some language skills.

Readers: A new language? A new hobby or activity? What’s your fun goal for the year?
