Tonight as I was filling in my diary I caught sight of the three resolutions I wrote down at the beginning of it. Not usually a fan of resolutions but…

1. Lose some weight. I suppose 1 and a quarter pound since new year could be classed as that

2. Drink less red wine. Well I discovered 10% volume wine from the wine club so ordered a case. Mmmm maybe!

3. Less phone screen time. I discovered gransnet so that’s not happened.

Enough said. Don’t think I’ll bother next year lol.

Generally I keep my resolutions but not this year.
Mine are a distant memory ,its been an awful start to the year ...matching the awful end to the last one
.7 funerals since mid December , a house to clear of 40 years of belongings , aSIL who didn't want us to start until the summer so that was a struggle; My own sister needing emegency surgery and being witnesses at an arson case in court ( I've never been in a court so I was a tad nervous) and an ongoing gynae issue thats sore and draining my energy .
I might get back to what I need to do when I feel better ,for now its doing very little except read and listen to music.

I did keep my resolution. Did Dry January and SW. Lost one stone one more to go and keeping my drinking in better control i.e. Weekends only.

Since December 31/21 I’m no longer drinking, I have lost 2 stone, done an iron man challenge and learnt to speak Italian.
It’s the one about not telling lies I’m struggling with.

Well done BigBerthal on keeping to your resolutions. If it wasn’t for my birthday being in January I’d do dry January too.
paddyann54 what an awful time you are having. I also hope everything improves very soon. Feet up and enjoy listening to your music, have time for yourself.

Sago grin I didn't make resolutions. I don't bother now. Life is too short and miserable to deprive myself.

Hang on in there, paddyann. It never rains but it pours.

I didn’t make any resolutions this year.
