The Beginning...

I have spent the last hour or so deleting over 4000 emails. Yes you read right 4000 emails and only 6 worth reading the rest were junk mail. After going through about a 1000 not really reading them but scrolling down and seeing who they were from I just started pressing delete. Never again. It's my own fault really I never read them because nobody ever emails me so I end up with junk mail.

I decided to start on my new years resolution.

Watched 7 Pounds starring Will Smith and Rosario Dawson. I think it's one of those movies you will either love or hate but I loved it.

Reading Meet me at cupcake cafรฉ. The first few pages didn't quite capture me but I decided to keep at it and now I am getting into it.

I have been looking at second hand bikes for some time now so I can start learning to ride but haven't had any luck. I am now thinking of getting myself a new one so went to the bike shop and tried a few and I am not sure if it's the right thing to do. Buy a new bike I mean.

First swimming lesson of the year is tomorrow and I don't think I will be able to make it due to other things happening but will see.

It's only been a few day into the new year and I feel as if I am already putting barriers in front of myself. Have to work on this.

Hope the first few day of the new year haven't been too bad.

Happy New Year...

2015 is upon us. Another 12 months to plan what we want to do. I never used to make new years resolutions until a couple of years ago. Like most people I can't even remember what they are come February but that is not going to stop me. I know some people refer to them as goals or challenges instead of resolutions. Whatever they are called I do enjoy thinking about them and setting them but hate that I never seem to accomplish any of them.

I have had a chance to think of mine and nearly all of them are similar if not exactly the same as last years. I have decided to share some of the fun ones here to track my progress.

Here is my list

Watch at least 52 movies this year
Read at least 12 novels 
Be organised
Look after myself better
Learn to ride a bike
Learn to swim
Take part in the scavenger hunt photo challenge to make me use my camera more.
Do some of the things in the 102 things to do this summer book. 
Cut down on my consumption of everything 
Blog more often and comment on the blogs I read

So this is my list. I do hope I stick to all of them. 

Hope the new year brings great things your way.
