My new years resolution is not going so well

Blog ≫ 2026 ≫ My new years resolution is not going so well

Thu Jan 22

Not this year's new years resolution, of course, I didn't make any. Nor last year actually but I think two years ago I resolved to stop making noises when I get in or out of a chair. It's not going well, and it's getting worse, a big old "OOOOF!!" when I settle into a chair or get out of one. There's no need for it, it's a terrible habit.

Didn't go into London today. Didn't really go outside. I nearly did, but it was very windy and drizzly so I turned right back in again. I did drive T1 to school, and I did open the door to our bathroom fitter, who came back today to fix the falling down wall. I haven't been up to see yet, but he was here half a day. It's just the aquaboard that was coming away from the wall slightly. He had to take it down and reglue it all. Hope it's good now, but if not he'll be coming back again.

The wind and the rain made me run indoors on the treadmill too. Is that only nine days to go now? And two of those are parkruns so really only seven. When tomorrow's out of the way that's less than a week to go. Also that means only nine days left of my not drinking plan. Wife is keen to go to The Ship this weekend for an alcohol free drink and some games of cards but I'm not so keen really. I would like to go back to the pub next Sunday but I don't think I'll be able to because of the Suede gig on Saturday. I'll be back too late for it's 4pm closing, which means not going to the pub for more or less the first week of February too.

A productive day of work though I think, struggling a bit with things that were broken, but answering questions, fixing and improving things.

Drizzle and a fresh breeze, 6 - 9℃.
