New Years Resolution

Post by MarkCDodd »

Mine is to lose a bit of weight.

Earn a living doing something I enjoy.

Save up for a trip to England and Ireland.

Just don't come down in Summer NL.

Looks like 40 degrees for New Years Day and six or seven days in the mid 30's for the start of 2012.

Friends of ours are in Melbourne at the moment, they're bewailing the wet weather. When we Skyped over Christmas the rain rattling on the conservatory roof meant they had to retreat indoors to hear themselves speak.

I feel if something is worth doing, I don't need New Year to make me do it. If it's something I don't really want to do then all the resolutions in the world wont help :wink:

Drop a dress size by my birthday this year.
I was given a lovely Diary, I never manage to keep one going past January. So try to keep that going all year, so that I don't get in such a muddle about what I'm supposed to be doing.
Finish de-cluttering the house. I've already made a good start and even, after 20 years, managed to store my car away in the garage for the Winter. A car, in a garage? Whatever next!!!
