Resolutions

I am one of those who believes that the new year is a good time to make some resolutions. As good a time as any, at least, and a time when I seem to be naturally more introspective.

Lately, though, I find myself hesitating to commit to any resolutions. With another baby and an imminent return to work, I'm afraid I'm setting myself up for failure. You know what they say about planning for failure, though.

So I'm torn -- aim high and possibly disappoint myself, or keep on a mediocre path and succeed at it? I'm not usually this pessimistic about goal-setting. Hopefully I'll get past it.
