That’s followed by becoming organized, saving more money, enjoying life more and becoming more fit and healthy. Area residents are among those making 2013 resolutions. “I am a goal-setting queen machine,” said Nancy Ockrin, Crown Point Chamber of Commerce co-chair. “Trust me, you do not want to hear all my various categories of New Year ’s resolutions,
