Hello To all,

Merry Christmas!

It wont be long before we are out with the old and in with the new.

I have so many resolutions I'd like too try, but I'm sure It will be impossible too stick to them all.

What resolutions might you be thinking about, maybe you will help me decide on a few of my own....lol

Less time wasting and more sleep's on top of my list so far

Good luck with your resolutions

Claris :santa1:

I think the exercise is a good idea! Sitting at the computer all year working on my book may have led to the fact that I've put on about 2 stone this year, although my shoulders have broadened out by about 4 inches so it's not too bad and I still only weigh 12 stone, so nothing too bad.

I think I'm also going to make a resolution to manage my time better, since I feel that I could have done so much more over the last few months (even though I got the book ready etc) and I want to start sending off stories and scripts and the rest to try and start making money from my writing, which as yet, I haven't done.

Your so right, my dog looks at me when I'm tapping away on the keys hoping Ill look up and feel sorry (he got big brown eyes) I could do with the exercise, so I think I'll add walking the dog to my list. saying that I made that one last year...

My one resolution every year is never to make New Year resolutions.

I always acheive that.

I tend to the view that if someone waits until January 1st in order to do something that they have avoided all year - all their lives? - then a New Year resolution is just the wrapping paper around all the other reasons for avoidance.

..........so if you are resolved to do something don't prevaricate until the New Year.

Even Dr Spock would get cross eyed at that kind of logic!

By not making any resolutions, you have fulfilled your resolution (of not making any resolutions,) thus making a resolution! Your resolution is made and unmade at the same time (Schrödinger anyone!)

My head hurts!

Happy Christmas!
