    Happy New Year to you too Beanie:beer:

    Right ok aims for 2013:

    1. Over pay £1000 - we'll see how that goes...:p
    2. Declutter! Have too many clothes and shoes that are NEVER worn, even if they go to a charity shop at least they won't be here clutter the place up.
    3. Enjoy life, leave thoughts of ex in 2012 and MOVE ON!!!:o
    4. Do half marathon, and find a cheapish one to enter! Looked at Edinburgh rock n roll one but really early start and entrance fee quite high...
    5. Finish off decorating...this mainly means sort out kitchen really:D
    6. Spend more time with friends in RL and stop being so lazy and just texting them:o
    7. Pass college course.
    8. Keep food budget down but still eat healthy food (most of the time:p)

    I think that's plenty to be going on with, shall now return to slobbing on sofa:D
