kittiwakeSo how did I do with my 2004 resolutions? Did I keep all of them, or none of them? Let's see . . .
1 - Don't buy any books.
There were at least three months (May, September and October) when I didn't buy any books, but then there were also months like July (6) and December (7), so overall I didn't do too well. All I can say in my defence is that I'm sure I bought fewer books than I would have if I hadn't made this resolution.
2 - Have a non-fiction book on the go at all times.
I was aiming to read one non-fiction book a month, but during the summer I decided to up my target to two per month and I have stuck to that ever since.
3 - Learn Spanish.
Umm . . .
4 - Meditate every day.
Unfortunately this fizzled out ages ago due to work stress.
5 - Gym & swim twice a week.
I'm actually back on track with the swimming part of this, as I have been swimming twice a week for the last 15 weeks! However in that time I have only been to the gym once.
I intend to post an update on how I'm doing with these resolutions once a month.
Well I posted an update at the end of January . . . and this post will make two.
