Time for Those New Year's Resolutions

Welcome to 2012!

At midnight we toasted the new year as the calendar turned another page. It's not that our lives changed overnight, but rather our mindset.

When we look back years from now at our personal timeline, the calendar years will help us pinpoint our plans, achivements, milestones, relationships, setbacks and losses throughout our lives. As we thumb through the pages of this virtual photo album, we can only hope that the resolutions we made have become the captions that describe our photos. 

During the last week of 2011, Patch asked a few people who live and/or work in the area to share their New Year's resolutions. Check out what they had to say by clicking on the photos, and please share yours with us in the comments below.
