New Years Resolution anyone?
« on: December 30, 2006, 01:23:40 »
So, does anyone have a particular favourite that is stated every year but never achieved?  Mine is usually "do more running" but never really gets done in any kind of useful continuity.

Or ones that have been stated last year and achieved?

Or other interesting ones?

This year I want to :
1   Improve my french (for when I live there and have a little farm with animals and lots of veg and a vineyard)
2   Learn guitar - (anyone got a spare one gathering dust anywhere that they would like to exchange for a cash gift?)
3   Re: above French resolution - Stop excessive dreaming

 ;D
Thank you to all who donated to the Moonlight Half Marathon Walk in aid of St Catherine's Hospice - my mum and I raised just over £300!!!    ............     Thanks!  :-)

I am going to stop telling porkies.

Well that did not last long did it ;D

I could give up jaffa cakes.  nah

Give up drinking   nah, I have cut down, I know when I have had enough when my wife starts looking attractive.

I shall just give up giving things up.

I have given up so much over the years, the time has come to start taking things up again.

I sort of decided to improve my socialibility, I'm pretty anti-social as it is and now have moved my studio to my home so could easily (and happily) end up being a hermit. So my resolution is to chat to, in a meaningful way, at least a couple people a week - maybe make actual acquaintances!

Other resolutions are a ton of work related ones and the allotment of course.

Sally - you could Freecycle (yahoo group) and Loot (loot.com online) for a guitar maybe?

To be more decisive... or was it less ambivalent...?
Lesson for life:
1. Breathe in     2. Breathe out     3. Repeat

Simply to enjoy doing what I CAN still do and not lose my bloody temper every bloody time I'm bloody-well defeated by yet another bloody thing that I bloody-well used to be able to bloody-well do and bloody-well can't bloody-well do any bloody more.

It's not going to be easy..........
