1. Over pay £2000 - we'll see how that goes, if I keep working it's doable but not sure what will happen jobwise...
2. Sort out garden so there is some sort of paved/decked area as a sitooterie:D
3. Continue to enjoy life and do new things.
4. Do half marathon, and find a cheapish one to enter! (Shall probably be Glasgow in Sep/Oct)
5. Finish off decorating...kitchen and hall!
6. Spend more time with friends in RL and stop being so lazy and just texting them, continuing this in 2014 and also encourage them to go places other than pub! One of my friends hardly drinks yet we always meet in pubs - often at her suggestion...
7. Pass year at uni.
8. Keep food budget down but still eat healthy food (most of the time:p). Also cut wine consumption!
9. oops forgot to add raise £2000 towards kitchen as I don't want to deplete savings too much:o only £2000....
I think that's enough to be going on with for now:D
