Not another New Year Blog!!! (Afraid so....)

Well, here I am - making my first (and perhaps last) foray into the blogosphere! On researching various blogs I have noticed that there seem to be a vast array of them about the New Year - mostly the resolutions made, broken and kept at this time of year. So, why not? Ever the one to play it safe and boring, I'll give you my own thoughts on this tradition. Well, whether there is any point in making resolutions is certainly debatable, but I would like a written record of the things I would like to change in the coming year to see if I stick to any of them!

1) NEVER DRINK AGAIN!!! (EVER!) as you may have guessed I made this resolution on a balmy New year's day, with thudding temples and very few memories of the night before!

2) Try not to get annoyed at the slopping noise my little sister makes when she eats (but, seriously - how can you slurp a bloomin' quiche???) - I am putting that to bed now...

3) Try to do more things that you are afraid of (beginning with joining a street dance class - Oh yeah, watch me go!!)

4) Try to get more satisfaction from my job and remain calm in the face of adversity (which is often being told to "shut my face" by 13 year old girls!)

Ah, I have realised the first folly in my resolutions - all but one of them begins with TRY - which means I'm already questioning my ability to fulfill my promises! Uh-Oh - this does not bode well...
