Does anyone here keep their New Years' Resolution passed January 1st or the next day?
First all, and I mean all, have a great new year, good health, prosperity, and joy to you and your families. Salt to give it flavor. God bless!
I used to take New Year's Eve very seriously. A time for contemplation, soul-searching, gratitude, confession, grieving, rejoicing, and getting bombed out of one's mind. (The last is optional.)
Back when I was in my twenty and thirties, I would have, on average, six resolutions. Things I thought I had something of a chance in keeping, like not peeing in the shower or having greens with every meal. Tough ones to keep, I know, and kudos to you that could. Yet was it up to me to make resolutions? My will be done? Would that interfere with what God would have me do?
There are only two resolutions I now have: no resolutions or surrender to spirit and grace in all my affairs. Yes, I favor the first choice, yet I pray for the second.

I haven't made a New Years' resolution in decades. Does that answer your question?

I do, since it involves not wearing metal underwear in a lightning storm.

The last one I made, I have kept for many years. I resolved to stop making resolutions.
My resolution is to live out the year.

I've been told I'll see my 90th birthday.
Problem... nobody to push the wheelchair.
I'm screwed!

When I'm 90 I hope I be screwed too.
