New Year, New Ideas

Every year, like many people, I make a New Years Resolution.  Most years I actually keep mine.  This year I have several.

1 - Avoid Wal-Mart at all costs.  I really hate that place and I get in a bad mood when I go there so I have decided to limit my trips there.  Sam's club doesn't count. 

2 - Attempt to learn Italian.  I know I probably won't ever be fluent but I would really like to be able to speak to my sister in laws family.  I would also like to be able to understand it if my niece says something to me in Italian.

3 - Read 12 books.  I don't read as much as I used to so I really need to get back into that habit.  Here is my list.

 - While Europe Slept by Bruce Brawer
 - The Host by Stephanie Meyer
 -  Atlas Shrugged - by Ann Rand
 - Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by JK Rowling
 - One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest by Ken Kesey
 - Room by Emma Donoghue
 - The New Road to Serfdom by Daniel Hannan
 - The Forgotten Man  by Amity Shlaes
 - Demonic by Ann Coulter
 - Screwed by Dick Morris
 - Fifty Shades of Grey by EL James
 - The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini

This list isn't set in stone but I have been wanting to read these books for a while now so I figured this is the year to do it.  If I like the first 50 Shades of Grey book I'll probably read the other two.
