What are three positive thoughts that makes you excited about 2011?

Asked by BoBo1946 (15325points) December 28th, 2010

I’m not referring to New Year’s resolutions… as we know, they are hard to keep, but things that give you an optimistic outlook for 2011.

Mine are: 1) I’m excited about being healthy again. 2) I’m excited about the economy getting better. 3) Lastly, I’m looking forward to playing golf again with my friends of 30 years.

Okay, what gets you excited about the coming year?

The number 11(chicken legs), is an extremely good luck number for me. my wife will be eligible for Medicare in 2011. i hope to have a healthier 2011, than 2010 has turned out to be.

And, i look forward to another wonderful year with my wife of 45 years.

ahhh….. good stuff! Btw, yesterday got some GREAT news… no knee replacement. All this time my problem was Iliotibial Band Syndrome! Cortisone shots did the trick. Also, will follow up with physical therapy! Walked yesterday with no pain and no limp. Wow… been a long hard trail.
