How are my resolutions going, you ask? You didn't, did you? Well balls to you for your distinct lack of interest. Ha!

Here i will go through each one and excuse my way through why i have yet to reach my goal of becoming an international ice-skating star, or whatever the fuck i was on about at the start of the year.

1. Lose weight. This one comes up regularly, but I would like to go on holiday this summer and I want to generally improve my figure, so by the end of the year I would like to have lost and kept off two stones.
Oooh, look, i'm doing that one. I've lost half a stone, or thereabouts. I had fruit for breakfast this morning and i'm going for a run after work. Check. Me. OUT. mia 1 – 0 Resolutionfail.

2. Be positive. I am generally a happy-go-lucky sort and probably in that annoying 'why is she so happy?' kind of way. I do however suffer from waves of negativity now and again, usually only directed at my housemate, who has no blame in my negativity, he just suffers, bless him.
Yes! I am being a very happy bunny. Even my periods seem to have given me a bit of time off from the miserable life i lead for 4 days a month. Bonza! mia 2-0 Resolutionfail.

3. Not buy beef, lamb or rice to do my bit for the environment. Check out my earlier blog if you're interested in doing this too. I've already started this one whilst buying some cat food earlier today and bought the lovely Badger some fishy flavours instead.
Hmmm… Well, i've not bought any for the cat and i've not bought any lamb for myself, but i keep forgetting that minced beef is, well, beef. I'm reducing it, but i keep forgetting what is beef and what isn't. I'm making excuses, aren't i? Boo. mia 2 – 1 Resolutionfail.

4. Travel to see my family more. My poor grandma has a broken pelvis and is generally quite poorly, bless her cottons. I don't know if we'll see another year with her, so this year has got to count.
I'm not being too good on this one either, though in my defense, it is rather hard to quantify. I'm texting my mum quite a bit and have been to visit twice since new years. I'm gonna have this one as a draw. mia 3 – 2 Resolutionfail.

5. Let bygones be bygones. I can't change the past, but I can choose not to let it be a part of my present. Adiós bygones!
Definitely. In fact, as soon as the original post was, erm 'posted' (there must be a better way of saying that) i suddenly felt lighter. My past is my past and is a part of my past, but it's not a part of my future, nor is it a part of my present. Facebook 'friends', who are in fact not that at all, have been deleted and the spring clean of my head is well under way. (Which is not a dig at the IC lovely people who have gone - it's a dig at horrid people none of you know!) Wazoo! mia 4 – 2 Resolutionfail.

6. Learn German. This is a fun one. I love languages. Languages are hot.
Ich nein have learnt Deustch yet. Or something. Ohhh… You know what's coming: mia 4 – 3 Resolutionfail. Pah!

That's not bad going really. It is only February, afterall. Go me.

Three wins, two loses, one draw - sounds like you are doing bloody well considering most of us (me included) don't make it past the first ermmmm day....

I saw a lovely thing once about how a resolution should be something you aim to achieve throughout the year, not something that changes on day one and has to stay changed for ever after. More about small lifestyle changes that actually make a difference - sounds like your winning all around on that basis!

XxX

PS - When you are finished with that abundance of will power, can you send some over here please? Mine seems to have gone missing this week....

No, it wasn't. Although i've practically stopped when i'm in Manchester. I'm also giving up completely for Lent.

How's your quitting going?
