I have decided that my first New Year's Resolution for 2013 should be to take the entire month of January off and play absolutely no poker whatsoever. Why, you may ask?
I have found that when I take some time off it really seems to help my game. Lately, I don't feel like I've been playing all that well, with many "flawed decisions" at untimely moments. Also, I'm not having as much fun as I used to have. I'm not sure why that is, but I'm bound and determined to figure it out.
Taking the month of January off will give me 31 days to redirect my energies elsewhere. I have still done very little with my new house, such as putting up pictures and decorating it a bit, and maybe moving furniture around. It could use a super cleaning too. Ick. I am going to make a concerted effort to resist poker all month - no playing, no watching on TV and no reading about it - except on Dr. Phil's blog.
Plus, all of the money I'm going to save will go into my "off to Las Vegas someday" super secret bank account - LOL. I will play on New Year's Eve and will probably play into January 1, but I'm not really counting that as January, even though I know it is. So, come play some live poker with me on December 31 if you are available and, if not . . . see you in February!!

Sometimes a long break is "just what the doctor ordered"! If you have a home computer consider playing on card player site or something like it. Free, but keeps your mind in the game.
