New Year's Resolutions

Post by Lost »

So we're a week into the new year. New decade. Did anyone else give themselves a few, soon to be broken, resolutions? :D

Here's my little list...

Don't post anything here or elsewhere when drunk :cuss:

So far so good.

Don't drink

A dry week. 8)

Complete at least a page of writing a day

Failed already. 3 out of 7 days

Gym everyday

Outdone myself... have been twice some days.

When posting on social media... try to be nice

Failed. Was never gonna work. :neener:

Stop smoking

Failed already but cut down to 2-3 a day so far.

Put things in motion to change my career

All good in the hood. :wink:

So... any of you good folk try to tweek anything? How's it going so far?

:cheers:

Stop Drinking - Not going to happen.... Although is enforced through work at times.
Stop Smoking - Have not touched a cancer stick in 17 years after smoking 20+ a day for years.
Gym - F*ck that, getting too old and uninterested!
Career Change - Doing what I know and all what I've ever known, so not much change coming there.

The List: -

Try to invest in/purchase a property/B&B business - the LHG's wish-list and have to keep her happy!
Sort things out financially - still some years away from retirement, but want a decent time for myself and the LHG after the hours put in.
Put enough aside for the British Lions tour of SA!
Stop online shopping when pi$$ed!!
Invent USB Breathalyzer to ensure above!!

:cheers: :cheers:

I've never made a New Years resolution, seemed pointless. I was either going to do what I intended or I wasn't. Didn't need the extra pressure and self-recrimination.

I didn't really think of it as a New Years Resolution but while hungover on New Years Day, I rashly decided to join the people I know here who go dry for January. I didn't take it very seriously at the time but now I've managed a week and a half, it's looking a bit more doable so I'm going to persevere!

I thought it hilarious when Trump was asked if he'd made any NY resolutions. His reply: "I don't think you're supposed to say them out loud. It's unlucky"

Just another typical response from the 'Stable Genius'.

His job numbers are also a joke. In a short space of time he announced 400,000 new jobs, later changed to 600,000 then to over a million.
However, he's still one and a half million short of the jobs Obama created in his first 3 years.

Ssshhh! Don't tell him or he'll have a hissy fit and call out 'Fake News'.
