New Year's Resolutions for your Home

New Year's Resolutions For Your Home???
Recently, I did my 2009 New Year's blog. Of course, most personal New Year's resolutions revolve around issues like losing weight, better fitness, better financial management and so forth. I decided it was a good time to create a website for New Year's resolutions for your home! Implement some or all and you will have a happier, safer and more valuable home.

View my web page for all 9 tips with more detail, including important safety tips and reminders and coupons.


  1. Home Safety
  2. Pratice Home Fire Safety
  3. Check for Radon if Necessary
  4. Check Water Quality
  5. Change Light Bulbs
  6. Improve Energy Efficiency
  7. Update / Renovate / Redecorate
  8. Change HVAC filters
  9. Improve the Outside

Read the web page and you will learn: the leading cause of deaths in a home, when and how to check water quality, easy ways to save energy, the value of landscaping to your home's value, how to get a Lowe's discount coupon and much more.

Happy New Year!


Happy New Year - 2008! Get out your new calendars, remember to write 2008 for all dates AND be sure to make some new year's resolutions! Enjoy your black-eyed peas, hog jowls, hoppin' john and ham and collard greens on New Year's Day.

I've compiled Mel Coker's TOP 10 NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS based on my extensive research (not necessarily my personal resolutions):
  1. Lose weight
  2. Get in better physical shape
  3. Spend more quality time with family and friends
  4. Reduce or eliminate debt
  5. Set a budget and/or reduce expenses
  6. Quit smoking
  7. Learn something new / develop a new talent or skill
  8. Drink less alcohol / quit drinking
  9. Find a better job
  10. Get better organized
Tips for making (and completing) effective New Year's Resolutions: set only 1-3 realistic goals; write down your goals; take baby steps (break goals into tasks with deadlines); go public (tell others about your goals); track your progress; reward yourself; if you slip up, recommit!
