Today’s Resolution: Sharpen Your Blades
Give yourself an edge by sharpening the blades in your home. Sometimes a good sharp edge is hard to find when you need one. Scissors and knives, as many other things, need to be rejuvenated. The obvious method would be with a blade sharpener, but if you do not have that, there are some other home tricks. Try using a pair of scissors on some aluminum foil; make several cuts to sharpen the blades. For a dull blade (avoid serrated edges here), try running it over the bottom of a ceramic cup or bowl that is not glazed, or on a terra cotta pot. See what other methods you can come up with.

Today’s Resolution: Take to the Skies
Do you prefer short pointed wings or sleek narrow ones? This is not chicken wing related. Find yourself an 8.5” X 11” sheet of paper and create a paper airplane that can take to the skies. Revise and perfect your design for the purpose of achieving distance or speed. One never knows when a challenge will be encountered for a paper airplane making competition. At least you will be ready!

Today’s Resolution: Shred for Safety
Because identity theft can be a real threat, shredding important old documents that contain account numbers and other critical information should occur regularly. If you don’t have a shredder, there are sometimes “community shreds” organized where you can deposit old forms and documents at a public location. Start gathering such items designated for a “shred,” and try to do this periodically. Even if you toss single items in the trash from time to time, make sure you have taken scissors to them.
