It’s March already and boy have we been busy these first two and a half months of the year!
I thought it might be a good idea to revisit our New Year’s Resolutions and see what’s happened.
- Lose another two stone (slow and steady is my melody) = Two more inches off the tape measure and I have bought my first two pairs of non-stretch trousers since 1986! It’s true, I’ve not had a proper pair of trousers for 23 years. And the best part of it all was having to ask for a smaller size. Twice!
- Keep exercising at least three days a week (seven is better but not always possible) = Doing well on this one! Getting a lot of walking in and have started a water aerobics class on Tuesdays. John has bought me two new excercise bikes, one normal and one where you move the handles as well to exercise your arms at the same time.
- Buy a new orthopedic bed (a good night’s sleep makes the day so much better) = Check! We bought a new mattress in January and it is amazing what difference it does to sleep in a bed where your body gets proper support. It is a costly investment, but one well worth saving up for. We want a new bed as well, but for now the old one feels brand new so we can save that investment for later.
- Get a driving license (I’m tired of London Transport!) = Nothing’s happened on this front yet, but I am determined to have a driving license before the end of the year.
- Register our second company = We celebrated our first anniversary as business partners by registering our second company, Atkins Associates. A website with an e-shop is under construction and you can pop in for a sneak peak at www.atkinsltd.co.uk if you’re the knowsy kind like me. =)
- Go on holiday (we desperately need one!) = Not yet…
- Open our ……………………… (can’t tell you about that either!) In process!
- Get our ………………………… (see above) In process!
- Launch our ……………………. (ditto) In process!
- Start a ……………………. (yeah, I’m afraid it’s the same again) = This one is almost a check, so I’ll soon be blogging about it!
Two completed and six in progress is not a bad result, is it? I actually think it is pretty darn good and a good reason to celebrate! I’m off to get some bubbles out – will be back later… =)
