January can be a depressingly long month. You’re cold, skint and since Christmas have beaten yourself silly over all those promises made a year ago you never kept. It’s hard to keep a positive spin when all the wintry cards are stacked against you so I thought I’d take a few minutes to revisit my 2024 resolutions.
Looks like I made not one but three resolutions. Question is, how many of these did I actually achieve? Well let’s see:
1) Getting lounge plastered – Big tick here.
Lounge not only plastered but painted and furnished with a home-made
office, library bookcase and TV unit.
Pat on the back, job’s a good ‘un.
2) Fit carpets to upstairs bedrooms – Big fat cross.
No sign of any floor coverings only cat hair and dust bunnies but my thinking is if you let these build up in sufficient quantities you may not need carpets.
3) Build a home office unit – Yay! Another tick! On a roll now…
Could I be cheeky and sneak in a few more ticks by including the loft insulation or new fence? Oh well, it was worth a try.
Two ticks. Not bad but don’t get all smug about it as there’s a million more things to do this year so as the best things are said to come in threes then here’s my 3 resolutions for 2025:
1) Carpets – there’s got to be a January flooring sale somewhere…
2) Downstairs Loo – to create a poopy palace fit for a king
3) Insulation – to add further insulation to loft and crawl spaces
Coupled with numerous rants on my favourite topics – the Government, NHS, energy, wokiness, pensions, taxes, etc etc there’s bound to be enough stuff on my New Year’s Honours list to keep this blog going for another 12 months at least.
