One of my resolutions last year was to walk more...we've enjoyed some lovely days out walking with friends and family; It's amazing how quickly you can cover a couple of miles, when you're chatting away! We had a fantastic time at Disney World and must have walked for miles each day in the 30C+ heat! Although this year's holiday will be a more relaxing one (in Greece), I hope to continue our weekend walks, and will certainly be getting our money's worth from our National Trust membership.
I think I've managed to cut down slightly on the amount of cheese I cook with, and have also veered away from using as many meat substitutes as I did, and swapped them for extra vegetables and pulses. I'll be using my new River Cottage Veg Every Day!
cookbook to continue on this quest this year.The girls have definitely improved in the amount of jobs they do around the house, and were a fantastic help just before Christmas when I was ill with a stinking cold. Let's hope they keep this up during 2012.
Mr O hasn't done too well on his DIY resolution, but he has promised that he'll be getting someone in to do the jobs that he doesn't have the time or inclination to complete!
My main resolution this year, is to do more gardening and improve on my fruit/vegetable/herb plot; I wonder how well I'll stick to that one? So what are your resolutions this year?

ReplyDeleteI've been trying to achieve some of the same resolutions for 30 years. I've linked up (no. 50). Thanks. And Happy New Year to You.
ReplyDeleteWell done - sounds like you achieved last years. I didn't write mine down last year, so not sure if I achieved them or not, but I certainly made lots of positive changes in my life and intend to consolidate on those this year. Thanks for providing the link up - I found you via Midlife Singlemum :)
