Newyears Resolutions

Michelle Page · 01-01-2001, 03:46 PM

Has anyone made any newyears resolutions yet?
I was thinking about making some this year. Whether I will actually succeed in keeping them, probably not! But anyway, here they are:

1. Actually finish one of the many projects I've started.

2. Try not to abuse the credit cards so much.

3. Find a better job.

4. don't let resolution #1 get in the way of res. #2.

5. Sell some of the junk in the yard.

Anyone else have any?

1) Try not to get discouraged on my 66 resto.

2) Try to build up my 96 the right way... first (cheaper)

3) Try to figure out what the h*ll the right way is for #2.

4) Learn all that I can about my cars so I can be more self sufficient.

5) Get the courage to have a (safe) little street race or to just to see how I fare.

6) Drink more Guinness.

1. Start reading instructions
2. Stop yelling at the guy at the parts store on base even though he is a jacka$$ and thinks he knows everything and won't let me order a rear for my car becuase "it wasn't originally equiped with 4.10's was it".
3. Move parts in garage away from growing lake on floor or seal roof (ugh)
4. Stop to wash hands before eating while working on car. ("Damn sandwich tastes like brake fluid!!")

I think I'll have to make a few myself just to see if I can stick with them...

1. Build a deck, patio, and a shed.

2. Try not to spend so much money on my Stang so I can afford to do #1

3. Repeat #2 (it's going to be tough to do, so I have to include this one twice)

4. Port my stock heads and get my GT-40 intake installed.

5. Work a bunch more overtime so I can buy my TB, MAS, and Injectors. (I told you #2 was going to be hard to do).
