So today I finally got around to fulfilling one of the new year resolutions. twenty three days late but hey, could have been later.
So I went for a chat with the young, male gym bunny, had a nosey at the facilities and fifteen minutes later handed over my credit card.
The boy couldn't abandon me with the dim female receptionist fast enough once he'd got his sale, leaving me with someone so disinterested she couldn't even remember my name.
I am now awaiting a phone call from a personal trainer to set up an induction so I know how to use the facilities safely and to the best benefit to me. Whilst waiting I am eating an endless amount of chocolate and cake...
I love being on my own!
Don't get me wrong, I'm not anti-social or anything. Far from it. I love spending time with people who pay attention to what I say and don't ignore my opinion.
Sadly, not many of those exist which is why I tend to prefer spending time on my own. At least when I'm on my own talking to myself is acceptable. I'm not going to dismiss my own opinion and I can cope with a disinterested glance from the beast whilst he sits chomping his lettuce.
No really, let it. Because snow makes the world so much more beautiful and nice.
Ok so it means the country grinds to a halt with people being trapped in their homes and public transport systems being unable to function. Roads become inaccessible and people fail to make it into their places of work.
And that it is why it's so great.
So many plans and ideas for this year. So many resolutions to begin 2013 with. So many things that are so not happening!
First off was a plan to create a photography blog that I would add to every day. Six days in and this is my third post. Only one of which has an actual photo attached to it.
Secondly was sell a camera to buy a camera. Moving on...
Then I was supposed to be eating healthily and doing more exercise. I'm currently spread across the couch finishing half a chocolate orange and a cupcake.
The only task I do seem to have been successful with is wedding planning. But that could be down to the fact the fiance has done everything on my list.
So, four in ten people will have broken their New Year resolutions within two weeks of making them. No real surprises there then when the resolutions include giving up chocolate, booze, joining a gym and seeing your family more.
Many of us need to be under the influence of chocolate and booze in order to face our families.
2013 feels like the year that is meant to be.
This is the year in which I should probably finally get my head down and my arse in gear to achieve my hopes and dreams.
However, this hasn't got off to the greatest start!
So many plans and tasks for the day have gone out of the window but hey, there's still another 364 days to get things done!
