New Year resolutions. What, if any, are yours? Please tell...

[GeraldineMumsnet]

Are your thoughts turning to 2012 yet? What sort of New Year resolutions will you be making? To be healthier, glammier, thriftier, greener, nicer, wiser? None of the above?

Thank you in advance for any posts.

bit previous, innit?

i might get myself some capital letters for MN

yes I do and it is.........to have more time for me. just me. no work, no DC, no animals, no DH. just me.

tis never going to happen

My New Years resolution is to win a 6 berth caravan via a Mumsnet trial

My resolution is to have a baby by January 24th. Since I am booked in for an elcs on 23rd, I feel I have a high chance of actually acheiving it this time.

I want to learn how to make bread and become more fluent at french.

I'm going to stop looking up any health symptoms I may have on websites. Turns me into a flippin hypochondriac!

Oh the blardy usual, quit smoking, drink less, lose 3 stone.

You know, the same as last year.

To actually achieve last year's one!

I feel this may be recurring....

Mine is to lose more weight...I did say this last year and have managed to lose a stone and a half this year so although I want to lose more I feel that I am getting closer and closer to my goal.

In a similar vein I am going to resolve to stop putting off things till I lose weight, stop putting off buying nice clothes, having hair/nails done and going out as actually I have realised I am making myself quite depressed doing that and before I know it my 20's will be gone and I will have done nothing as I'm waiting for that majical moment I feel 'right'.

So all in all be kinder to myself I think

Oh............and win a MN comp every month

magical

After a rocky start (illness, redundancy) which seems to have been resolved, I am going to count my blessings and enjoy my maternity leave with DD and give her all the hugs, kisses and attention she has been missing out on whilst I have been too ill and/or anxious to enjoy her. But not to leave out DS (3) too.

1)buy trainers
2)go to at least one zumba class
3)payg gym attendance at least once a week.
4)to go awesome gig of a lifetime hopefully foo fighters or muse to celebrate turning 40.
5)make one real friend who properly likes me for being me.
6)goal for the year: try and jog the whole way to work without dying and leave the bicycle at home
7) look for either book group or knitting class in town and join it

stick with my running and try and do a 5/10km.

To not make resolutions. Oh look, I did it! Or did I...

to get fit again. I have spent the last year doing nada as I broke my toe and then got out of the habit of doing so!

I am planning to lose weight with a friends help (they have to lose weight as have an operation on their brain in august and have had a heart attack), BUT I DO NOT START UNTIL 2ND january, new years day i can still eat, and not feel guilty, also have some slimming tablets to help me as well. Want to lose 2 stone 12, and go back to being 7stone 2 which is where i should be for my weight and height according to the boots machine (that is the lowest safe healthy weight) but hey, i want to be slim again!

Stupid ones really, eat veggie once a week, eat fish once a week and continue with our drive towards self sufficiency.

1 -Eat less carbs
2 - Try my hardest to live in the present, not the past or the future......in essence try and live a bhuddist way of life

To find a babysitter and go out with my husband regularly.

to lose weight, to get my money under control, to shag at least 4 times a week (should help with losing weight)

I have stuck to all of mine thus far

This years was not to to colour my hair and I am proud to say I have not been near a chemist or hairdresser.

2012 for me will be the year of the declutter, this time next year I intend to have emptied and ebayed 50% of my household contents.

I like your second one DG girl; that's what I need to do.

Mine are:

1. Stop wasting so much time stressing about work
2. Move house and then live in present! Hopefully learn to feel settled
3. Prioritise friends
4. Get back to being fit - go to gym or class twice a week
5. Learn to be confident about cooking for people
6. Make time to see dh more to do fun stuff, cinema, gigs etc
7. Make an effort to find things we can do/go to as a family (teenagers )

1. Start driving lessons.
2. Pass driving test

to not think about new year's resolutions until christmas is past.

and to ignore any loon that tries to get me to.

oops.

To get a new job - one I enjoy
