    I can't believe it is 2009!!!! Happy new year everybody!!!!!

    I am feeling particularly well intentioned today and ready to start with my new year resolutions. These are:
    • To pay off the credit card debt by July 2010
    • To lose 2 stone by the end of the year
    I would love to surpass these targets but I think trying to be realistic is probably a good idea.

    Oh yes, it is amazing what you end up reviewing when you get into it - I have also done things like "being a working mum" etc.......!

    I think that sounds like a nice gap, I don't think I will be ready to face another pregnancy for awhile yet as well!
