I suck at New Year's Resolutions. I don't think I have ever kept a single one. So this year, instead of saying "I will"give up smoking , "I will"lose weight healthily or "I will"start saving money towards Noah and my Book Shop, instead I will compile a list of things I will consider doing over the next 12 months and see how we go from there. No pressure. No feeling of failure because I made some broad statement that was destined for failure after too many glasses of Merlot.
Firstly, I might consider turning my back room into a gym. It already holds my exercise bike and rowing machine (although at the moment both peices of equipment are acting as clothes hangers for my work jackets) I could even throw the spare tv in the room and watch dvds while I exercise.
If I really wanted to.
Next, it could be possible for me to start putting a bit of money aside. It wouldn't hurt me to go past a shoe shop every now and then instead of having to "browse". Also the fact that the JB HiFi guys are starting to recognise me probably should be taken as a sign that maybe I am one of the reasons that during the global financial crisis they still ran at a profit. Maybe Noah and I could set up a joint bank account to start saving some money each week?
Just a thought.
It is possible that I could look at adding more green stuff to my diet and drinking more water. I could try and make chocolate a sometimes food instead of a necessity.
I suppose I could do that.
Maybe I could stop being so fussy and start dating every guy that asks me out. I mean is it so bad that a guy (a) has only been separated from his wife for a month or (b) lists his hobbies as drinking beer and watching car racing or (c) is an active member of a white supremacy group or (d) is looking for a bit on the side or (e) has spent the last six months in rehab or a mental health facility or (f) all of the above? Perhaps, I can look past these flaws and see something good in them.
Nah, not going to happen!
Have a great New Year everyone xox
