I think I have 2 things for 2010 that resemble resolutions…

1. Do something either physical or social (or both) every day.
   It doesn’t have to be something big. As simple as going for a walk in the other building at work or some exercises on Wii Fit for the physical side. Or meeting someone for dinner or coffee or something on the social side.
   
   
2. Do a mini-project a week.
   I’ve started a list of mini-projects to do. Stuff around the house, to the car(s), whatever. Just little stuff that can easily be done in a short amount of time. So far I don’t have a lot on the list, but I’m slowly adding.
   

That seems like a good start. At first I thought I might try to do a mini-resolution a month or something, but I think I like this better. The project list kind of has that feel to it. And I think both are fairly achievable, they aren’t what one would call stretch goals in the corporate parlance.

I would also like to travel a bit more this year, but that is contingent on so many things, that I don’t think I’ll make that an actual resolution. The same goes on blogging more, actually.

So, I was using some of that pre-foamed soap from the new dispensers they just installed @ work today and realized something. That stuff may actually make you do a worse job of washing your hands. Previously, I would get my hands wet, and soap, rub them together until I had a good hearty lather, then rinse. With the new stuff I start out with foam, so I find myself rinsing my hands way sooner than I would otherwise. I realize that the foam dispensers probably use less soap & stuff, & I kind of like the foam, but I think the law of unintended consequences is definitely at play.

(And for those from facebook, this isn’t the post I wanted to research first. )

It’s been 195 days since I used Wii Fit. Shame on me. The balance board forgot my name. But for the good news, my Wii Fit age was 30. Yippee!

I seem to be wel balanced today. I just set a new record on Warrior Pose as well. Tree wasn’t as good, but then it never is. I did set records on the Palm Tree (by 8pts), Chair, Triangle, Down Dog (by 17pts) & Dance (from 36 to 51 - didn’t take much) though to make up for it. I also did enough time to unlock the last 2 Yoga poses & another Strength exercise. The Shoulder Stand wasn’t as hard as I thought it would be.

I think 36 minutes is enough for the night.

I was bad, I haven’t used it in about 2 weeks. But I fired it up last night before bed just to do the body test. I got a 33. I decided to do it again this evening & am going to do some exercises too. Tonight I got a 25. WooHoo! I’m getting younger everyday. I guess I do pretty well on the one foot balance test. I also had my walking balance & initial COB almost spot on (50.3% Left / 49.7% Right). Oh, my BMI tonight was 21.34.

Last night I did it again, it gave me the original test & a new one & my “Age” went up to 44. But tonight when I just did it, it gave me 2 totally different tests & I got a 29.

Well, it’s better than my Wii Fitness age when I first got the Wii. My starting age is 39. My BMI is 21.49 & my balance is 49.4% Left & 50.6% Right. I tend to wonder if that extra .6% wasn’t partially the Wiimote since it was in my right hand.

Well, UPS says the Wii Fit has been delivered!
