WhackyWill Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 This is the time to think about New Year Resolutions and what you will give up or attempt to give up in 2014 and how long do you think they will last. ??. :surrender: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilp Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 I'm not going to give anything up. Today a very close friends father passed away at a young age. This has made me think more about how important everyday is with family. My resolution is to spend more time and thought for my family and do everything I can with my time here to show them how important they are to me. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jp606 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Drink only at the weekends and learn to stop after a couple and eat healthier then spend the money not spent on alcohol and food on the Z! It's a win win 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sipar69 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Save some money instead of spending it all (unlikely to keep to it if I stay on this forum) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeilMH Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Sorry to hear about your news NeilP and Graham. I don't normally believe in New Year Resolutions because why wait? However....my wife already had a recurrence of the issues with her spine (housebound since September). She had just had a steroid epidural and was about to restart physio when......she got a severe infection which then made it into her kidneys and bloodstream. She was taken into hospital on Christmas Day and has been there since on intravenous antibiotics. Anyway... she now appears to be on the mend. My New Years Resolution is somehow to help her get back to where she was in the summer, which is the best she had been in 20 years. She will always be restricted but she had got to about 50% of a normal life - which was plenty good enough for both of us. One thing she could do then, with little restriction, was swimming. So when she gets back to the 210 lengths a week she was doing in August my resolution will be have been achieved. Will - bet you are glad you asked! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
