I will start this year with a few resolutions, as it is traditionally done.
Everything is tied to my One Little Word of choice: PLAN. As is the verb to plan, not the noun.
One Little Word is a idea which I believe was started by Ali Edwards, where you choose a word on which to focus for the year. She runs a workshop every year, but I am not using it do to anything creative with it, just to remind me to plan.
I am a huge procrastinator and can be sidetracked easily, so I have to PLAN every day, setting myself small, achievable goals.
Some of my resolutions are to eat better, exercise and educate my children.
I am also doing Project 365 again. A photo a day for the whole year. I hope to do better than I did last time, but I won't consider it a failure if I miss a day or two every now and them. I am more focused in learning and practising in every shot than having a perfect record.
Inspired by the theme suggested in the ILP forum - Myths, Legends and Make Believe - I took my first couple of photos.
I only started officially today (01/01/13), because it's neat that way, but I took a practise shot yesterday. I taped a Christmas decoration on the window and placed a pot of tulips in front of it.
And today's is called Amazed. The "fairy" is something my son got with his Happy Meal in McDonalds, I was going to put it in the bin, I am glad now that he didn't let me.

Good luck with executing all your plans. I have found there's nothing like having another proscratinator around to make me mend my ways! C is bad enough, my dad is absolutely terrible, so although I could be too, I react against that.
Lovely photos - the flowers look so cheerful with a touch of whimsy from the decoration, and the soft-focus look in the second one is lovely. No better weather today, either, sigh...
Some time we'll have to meet up again - I'd love to see your photo book from last year's project!!
