Happy New Year!

Last Year's Goals:
          -Repair laptop Check:)
          -Attend ONE (1) conference, be it RT NOLA, Lori's, or the one in Nashville, TN. :(
          -Lose 10 lbs or more Check:)  I've lost a total of 30 lbs since Sept 9, 2013:)
          -Reach the 'HO' titles in karaoke  Check:)  I'm up to 'How Do I Live' by Leanne Rimes:)
          -Publish at least two books this year, which means cleaning up NaNo 2013's wip and submitting it; finishing #8 or going onto #9.  Write one or two more (either pen name) 50/50 on this one.  Published one, wrote two:)
          -Read 200 books  Read half that many, due to having to 'share' my Kindle with spouse and youngling.

This Year I Resolve To:
         -Finish writing/write NiKo's Choice and untitled Salie's story and publish both
         -For NaNo, either write Renei's story or get back to work on AU #8 or 9
         -Lose 10 more pounds
         -Get out of this house
         -Attend ONE conference (see last year's goal)
         -Promote more
         -Step up the blogging
         -Reach the mid-to-end of the 'I' songs
