Thanks - and thanks! Thought it was about time I had a new avatar to see in the New Year.

Ok folks - have completed my list except for the last one ... which involves mulled wine, dinner and a roaring fire....

So I am off. Enjoy yourselves - whether out or at home, partying or having a quiet evening. Look forward to talking to you all in 2009!!
Even though so much seems to be going so wrong in the world right now, I am genuinely hopeful it will be a good year for us.

Happy New Year! :beer:

Hi all

Well had a lovely news years eve then spent all of yesterday in bed with a migraine - and no not overindulgence (had a glass and a half of wine!) but realised afterwards that it was european wine which does that too me. But seriously do not want to feel that awful again so resolution number one - no more red wine of any kind at all! Is a wrench but I can't risk that happening regularly!

Hope you've all had a more exciting start to the year! Will get back to debt busting soon but am still feeling fragile so think will get off computer for a bit.

Sorry you're not feeling well, but happy new year anyway x

Sorry to hear about the migraine - at least you know what caused it - I hope you are better now.

Thanks all. Feeling a bt better now - have managed to eat something and been up and about. You're right Dragon - at least I know what to avoid - shame it is my favourite "flavour" of wine! But hey - will be cheaper to drink water - even the fizzy stuff - so there is a plus side.

So onwards and upwards - what of 2009? Well - I have a few resolutions though I am determined to achieve all three:

• Get debt free once and for all - aiming for a debt free Christmas this year
• Develop a healthier lifestyle - more fresh food, more home cooked, more exercise, less junk - not going to make any predictions about weight loss etc - just that I am determined to be fitter and healthier when I have my work health check in September than I was last year
• Sort out the house - cupboard by cupboard. Am going to aim for two cupboards a week (including shelves, garage, attic....) - should get them all done by 2010!

Don't think those are unrealistic!
