I am not a fan of resolutions (which I never keep) but I am a big fan of lists. So instead of resolutions this year I created this lovely list of things I am going to do. When I told Aaron he told me I was ridiculous and should only do 14. So he will be doing 14 for 2014 instead. And then by 2025 he will be sorry he has to do more than me. Without further ado…
