My New Year’s Resolutions 2011

Hi Kirsty Stanley here now.

I hope you enjoyed the brief interludes from Jane and Gabrielle, two of the characters from my 2010 NaNoWriMo novel Training Time.

1)      My main resolution this year is about adding to the 50,000 words I got written in November and editing what I end up with.

2)      My next resolution is to crack on with my PhD.

3)      To get back to Body Combat – it is a good stress reliever that I feel in need of and will hopefully help with:

4)      Losing more weight so that I have more energy and so that I can buy some more clothes (still in a bit of an inbetween sizes stage).

5)      Noticing things and being a bit more mindful – see earlier post about January’s ‘a river of stones’ challenge.

6)      Make work more enjoyable and chill about it a little more (getting a bit more organised might help with this).

7)      Major house and bedroom declutter.

8)      Being a good bridesmaid for one of my besties – which includes organising a fantabulous Hen Do.

9)      Getting a little bit of culture (including hopefully a trip to the ballet)

10)   I think that is quite enough to be getting one with. I hope you’ve noticed that apart from the Jan Challenge I’ve put no specifics or timescales on these – that’s so I can’t be too hard on myself – after all I’ve got the whole year to get there.

Happy New Year 2011 to one and all – may it bring you what you need.

Kirsty
