Check your resolution list

By Staff
With only a handful of hours left in 2007, many people start making lists of how they want to change their lives in 2008.
Atop of most everyone's list is to lose weight, stop smoking or find a better job.
Most notably missing from the top 10 most common New Year's resolutions is spending more time with family.
There's an old saying: "When the end is near, no one ever says, 'I wish I would have spent more time at work.'"
As you look over your list of things to accomplish, put your family on that list.
Maybe take more of an interest in one of your children's hobbies.
Maybe you need to go see your grandmother a little more often while you still can.
Maybe there's an opportunity to strengthen a bond between yourself and your spouse.
We're sure those chances are there and we encourage you to find them in 2008.
