[haflingerfriends] Horsey Resolutions

I wonder if anyone is making horse related resolutions. I'm making some resolutions to help meet my GOAL of finally riding my beautiful horse.
1) continue lessons with the trainer until he tells me I'm ready
2) penny pinching wherever I can to afford more training for Charlie
3) yoga or water aerobics to help myself be more limber and flexible
4) less time at work, more time at the barn (that one may be a stretch, but it won't affect my penny pinching, as I'm on salary at a job that drains way too much out of me)
5) delegating more home chores to the family to give me more time at the barn (I tend to want to do everything myself so it's done to my standards then I resent having to do it.......)
6) exposing Charlie to as many new situations/people/items as possible to help him meet his resolution (LOL) of being less spooky!

DH and I bought tickets to see Clinton Anderson in Redmond Oregon come April. DH signed Charlie up as a candidate under "spooky on the ground" to have Clinton use him during the exhibition. They only choose 4 horses, so I know it's a long shot, but you never know!
