I also do this in the spring when that first burst of warm air hits (and the barometric pressure changes I guess). I have recently added reflection to the list of what I should do at new years. I am a cyclical person, so it works well for me. Greg and I spend the evening without our children or any hubbub, rehash our plans, regrets, surprises, dreams. No numbers involved, not lists really...just a reknewed sense of self maybe. And then New Years Days hits, and we try to spend some time with the boys to reconnect with them.
