Gettin’ stuff done.
Well my holiday is coming to an end pretty soon, which means I was meant to have done a whole list of activities to start the year in a good way. Let’s see how I’ve done:
1. Get my car serviced / airconditioning fixed.
Took my car to the airconditioning guy this morning, who told me it would cost almost $700 to get it working again. I haven’t even come close to getting the car serviced.
2. Find out what happened with a guitar I tried to sell in 2008.
Went into the shop who were selling it for me, and they don’t have any record of it. They’re going to call me at some stage, so who knows. I know the guy who owns the business though, and he’s honest, just forgetful, so I should hear something eventually.
3. Teach Vanessa how to drive.
Not. One. Lesson. But it looks as though we may get access to a small automatic car soon, which belonged to her Nan. We’ll see.
4. Exercise every day.
Been for a few runs, done a few pushups. Nothing too spectacular. Been swimming once or twice, which was nice.
5. Read for fun.
Read a few books, which is good. Finally, I’ve achieved one of my goals…
6. Catch up on sleep.
Yep, at least I’ve done plenty of that.
7. See friends and be relaxed.
Ditto. (This is getting good, just ignore the first few).
8. Fix my computer.
Nope. Ok, I’m slowing down again.
9. Write some songs.
No, but I did play some guitar which sort of, kind of counts?
OK, that was my version of New Year’s Resolutions. How did you lot go?

I don’t make resolutions, then everything i do is amazing and beyond what I had expected.
I decided that I should sit down and make a couple of goals or resolutions or whatever you want to call them for the year.

I like the fresh start a new year seems to bring, although you could argue the same for a new day, week or month, but the new year feels different.
.
So here’s what I have so far:
1) Sit down and think about resolutions (so far I’ve failed here)
2) I already had this one though… Read something everyday. It doesn’t have to be much, but I want to read more. The rules are simple, it can be as short as I have time for, a page will do, but it has to be in paper form somehow, not the internets. (Strike rate for this is probably around 90%)
.
So that’s about it until I complete No. 1
