"New Year's Resolutions - 2007 Edition"
We all make resolutions that we really know we have no chance of keeping. My main one for this year was to spend less time sitting here idling my life away and to get to bed at a reasonable hour each night.
Right! That worked just fine on the very first day as I stagger up the stairs at 12:30am? So I spose that one is outta the window til next year. It's all someone else's fault though, never mine! Is it my fault I have such a magnetic, yet self deprecating personality? Being pernickety doesn't help either; there is always something that needs tidying up., my typing, grammar and spelling usually.

RESOLUTION #1
2001: I will read at least 20 good books a year.
2002: I will read at least 10 books a year.
2003: I will read 5 books a year.
2004: I will finish The Runners Guide to Joggers Nipple 2nd Ed
2005: I will read some articles in the newspaper this year.
2006: I will read at least one article this year.
2007: I will try and finish the comics section this year.

RESOLUTION #2
2001: I will get my weight down below 18 stone.
2002: I will watch my calories until I get below 19 stone.
2003: I will follow my new diet religiously until I get below 20 stone
2004: I will try to develop a realistic attitude about my weight.
2005: I will work out 5 days a week.
2006: I will work out 3 days a week.
2007: I will try not to phone my daughter in the sitting room and walk across the room at least once a week to ask her for a cup of tea.

RESOLUTION #5
2001: I will not spend my money frivolously.
2002: I will pay off my bank loan promptly.
2003: I will pay off my bank loans promptly.
2004: I will begin making a strong effort to be out of debt by 2005.
2005: I will be totally out of debt by 2006.
2006: I will try to pay off the debt interest by 2007.
2007: I will try to be out of the country by 2008.
So there you have it. A dismal failure is what I am! Never mind eh! Just keep trudging ever onwards towards perfection is what I say.
