All over the world there will be people blogging about their New Year Resolutions, unless they aren't of course.
I have taken the odd moment to ponder what I should be aiming for in 2007 and couldn't really come up with anything specific. 2006 was a big year, we got engaged, we got married, we moved in together (so conventional I know), and actually this year I am just looking forward to us being together as husband and wife.
Yes, yes I probably should be muttering about things like fitness - ooh, get Dave to start playing badminton with me (that could take my weekly count up to 3 times) or perhaps squash - that is somthing that is bound to fail so if anyone needs a squash partner around here and doesn't mind that sometimes I just can't seem to be bothered to move, at other times can't stop myself from laughing a lot, and at others like to play quite seriously (playing well would have been a lie) then let me know.
Or I could mutter about improving myself - a few years ago I made a resolution to take singing lessons, and I did - for over 2 years, and while I would quite like to learn to play an instument I don't think now is the right time to try and learn so I won't make that a resolution.
I could make great statements about my job, but actually it's ok, I don't want a more important role, the school is fine and it's a good distance from home (not to far, not too near).
OK, there is something that has to be a resolution, a statement of will, a must. That is the *l***y second bedroom, which I am currently sitting in. It's a tip, it's meant to be a room we could use for guests and it also has my computer and books in it. It is shameful in it's messiness.
Even if I can't drag Dave onto the badminton court with me, the second bedroom is unavoidable.
Therefore, ladies and gentlemen, my Resolution of 2007 is...
Nope, I can't do it, I hate resoultions, they are bound in their very nature to fail.
