Hello 2014!As is traditional, today is the day for making promises to yourself – resolutions that you will have cheated on by February and forgotten by March – and tomorrow is the day that you start to crack and have ‘just one last chocolate’.I have no idea what I said I would do at the…… Continue reading Let’s Be Sensible
On the 11th July 2011 I decided to take on the Day Zero challenge of completing 101 things in 1001 days. At the time, 1001 days was the kind of timescale that makes your brain go ‘that’s ages, no worries’ – but all of a sudden I have less than a year left to finish…… Continue reading 101 Things in 1001 Days ~ 239 Days Remaining
