another year

Another year. As you get older life accelerates and you get slower. Even if science manages to crack the immortality thing people will get to the point where they are missing whole centuries by not paying attention.

On a more serious note I have decided that this year needs some life goals and I am going to be brave and state them here so everyone can point out I am crap if I don’t do them:

  1. Sort out the stressful ongoing crisis that is my financial situation.
  2. Loose weight – I have been threatening this for a while but it really does have to happen

There are others but they are more of the moment. These two really do have to happen. Feel free to point out that I am failing to achieve them.

In other aspects of my life things are going well – the company I work for appears to making some positive progress. Our survival should be assured and with luck this year will allow us to grow. There is a crazy amount of work to do however. Still that’s what makes it fun.

I have had a good Christmas away from most of my worries because of this and I have spent most of my time with Milo. It's been excellent to see him when I am not tired or stressed out.

I have deliberately not been working on any of my projects either. I have decided to let music take a back seat for a little while – its not like I am getting any opportunity to do it anyway at the moment. I am sure this will change at some point in the year though. Poetry and writing are moving to be my main focus then and I am hoping to get something published and perhaps even get paid for it. Either that or collect lot's of rejection letters.

You go Mark.... your 2 resolutions are probably the most universal resolutions around. You'll get there when you are ready! I wish you well.
