I just saw this on FB and thought it was a great idea. It seemed like the kind of thing that many of you ladies would like, too, so I thought I would share.

Re: Idea for the New Year
I think a weekly/monthly reminder is a great idea, Super. That would help you get in the habit and then eventually it'll just become automatic.
On the flip side, my friends and I had a tradition for a few years where we would get a pinata for New Year's Eve. Each person would write one thing from that year that they wanted to "smash" (e.g. I smashed "chicken sh!t guys" one year when I'd been jerked around a few too many times) to start the New Year fresh. At midnight we dropped it from an upstairs window or started breaking it the old fashioned way. It was cathartic (and I still maintain it was effective: DH and I started dating less than 6 weeks after I smashed the jerks from the previous year).
