I love Nora Roberts' Gallaghers of Ardmore Trilogy and Born In Trilogy. I love the family interactions and characters in both series and the Irish settings.
I try to use my son's morning nap time as my alone/quiet time. I've found that if I don't take that, I don't really get any time for myself otherwise with a young son running around and trying to take care of him, my hubby, and the house.
I haven't been in the habit of making resolutions. I do have goals for the year, though: be wiser with money, pay off a loan, and make healthier choices (exercise more, eat better, etc.).
