2016

So. 2016. It's here and it's taken me by surprise as I was just getting into the swing of 2015. I am however excited to begin a new year with the same gusto I ended last year with. So inspired by the latest blog by Clemmie at Mother Of All Lists (you can check that one out here:http://motherofalllists.com/2015/12/29/my-new-years-resolutions/ ) here are my achievable and I hope realistic resolutions for this year.

Adventure more. I love our family outings to cities and museums, they are always a pleasure and they always make us happy.
Keep up to date with accounts. Boring but necessary.
Colouring books. I have more plans for these, and I'm excited.
Take more pictures of the boys and make photo books. I'm terrified that Facebook will self destruct one day and I will lose every memory I've ever had.
Learn more. I want to attend more workshops and learn a new skill to help me help my clients.

Be a better girlfriend. At the moment I'm a bit grumpy, a bit boring and a bit 'yeah I'll watch a film with you'....*scrolls through Instagram*

Get divorced.

Spend more time on myself. I know the benefits of self care, I bang on about it all the time, I just find I have no time to do it myself. This year is all about me. (After I've finished looking after everyone else)

Enrol on more courses at Whitespace. Sound baths, mindfulness, meditation...yoga retreat in Goa....yeah right!

Turn 30. Fuck.

Drink more water. I don't drink enough, and I should.

Eat less meat.

Continue to develop my business and to pour every ounce of love I have into it.

To amend my contracts so I'm not losing out.

To visit and stay with friends more. York, London...Milwaukee maybe?

Be less frustrated if plans change. Plans change, I need to get over it.

To be less 'phoney' during the day. It's really hard to run a business on your own, a lot of stuff can wait until I'm free in the evenings. Firm boundaries.

Host more dinner parties for friends. Themed ones.

Start saving for a Sphynx cat.

Eat cleaner. Boring resolution but I feel I should write it down.

Be less passive aggressive with Brad, he doesn't get hints. Honesty is the best policy.

Swim more.

Stop swearing. Scrap that, that's a shit idea.

Stop swearing when the kids are around.

Love more. Everyone, everywhere and everything. You can't have too much love.
