Happy New Year!
We’re in the second week of 2013 already, cripes!
I’m one of those people who doesn’t respond well to making New Year’s resolutions. I’ve always found them to be nasty little things that just end up beating me about the head and make me feel rubbish about everything when I don’t achieve them. Even talking about them makes my skin itch. And then I just get plain rebellious and open the wine. Listen, I live in England: January is cold, dark and most people are skint or have flu. Or norovirus. You get the picture? It’s enough to make anyone want to spread butter on chocolate brioche in the morning.
However, The Exec (who denies being a total control freak) decreed that anyone in our house who didn’t make a resolution would be given one. By him. Now I love him dearly, but sometimes he really does ask to be whipped with a wet tea towel. Nevertheless, the handsome beast does still pay all the bills so I complied: my New Year’s resolution is …
TO WATCH MORE TELLY.
Ha!!! I think it will improve my life enormously.
Anyone else have any rebellious resolutions out there? Or a vice they simply refuse to give up under any circumstances? Or am I just the baddest bad person ever?
Have a fabulous weekend everybody and be naughty if you want to!
You are a woman after my own sneaky heart, Rachel!
The main reason I don’t make new year resolutions is because I’m too lazy. I obviously need a tea-towel wielding Exec to motivate me! Imagining I did get off my chuff, I’d have something like….find more opportunities to eat whipped cream.
btw The-partner-in-parenting-crime is reading “Kidnapped by the Greek Billionaire” and is LOVING it. I’m reading it next week on hols. Can’t wait.
Ha! Good woman, Barbara! I’m thrilled The-partner-in-parenting-crime is getting stuck into The Greek and I hope you enjoy it too! Whipped cream, huh? You may have something there … :0)
Now THAT’S a resolution I’m sure I could keep! Excellent! Thanks for the laugh!
Delighted, Imelda! Thanks for stopping by! :0)
Oh, Rachel, thank you for my morning laugh!!! I think your New Years resolution is PERFECT! We didn’t make one this year-hubby and I were sharing swigs of cough medicine instead of champagne…so maybe I’ll just borrow your resolution if you don’t mind
I like your way of thinking. I don’t normally do a resolution, but I’m going to work on having a rebellious one all ready to go next year! lol Thanks for the laugh!
