Buying a house a few months back has proven a massive shock to the finances. I don't get paid a huge amount so the main target for this year is to cut back on spending where I can, so that I actually have something going into savings. Exciting times ahead

Get myself on the job ladder properly. That's my main objective. Travelling a bit would be nice too, I've literally not gotten further than Cornwall in the past year. Got itchy shoes, if you know what I mean.

I take it that Shaw rosso will be starting the official New year thread at midnight?

1. Resign from current job and start new job by end February Achieved ahead of schedule 2. (related to 1) Sell house and move closer to new job location by end July (as need to get son started in primary school for September) On hold 3. Reduce chlolesterol level to <5.0 without using medication (i.e. by changing diet, lifestyle and exercise) Need to arrange another test to see how well this one has gone..... 4. Sell (currently unused) car and purchase new mountain bike by end Jan (anybody want a 02 plate Astra?). Then commit to use it a minimum of 3 days per week. Sold car eventually, bought MTB, but certainly haven't used it enough or as much as I wanted to 5. Significantly reduce (ideally eliminate) my credit card debts by the end of the year. Epic fail..... 6. Raise £1000 for Charity. Epic fail 2......
I've not put much thought into this year's, as yet.

1. Try and lose 1.5 stone. 2. Try and sort employment situation so not commuting 3 hours each day. 3. Try to spend more time with wife and young baby (linked to no.2 above) 4. Try to get out on bike more possibly aim for 3k miles over year. (linked to no.2 above) 5. See town win something. 6. Completely off the wall and probably complete non-starter but have a hankering to do LEJOG.

To go for it, 2013 was one of my worst years. Bring it on!

I think I may undergo a mid-life crisis inspired health and fitness drive in the not too distant future. Until that happens, however, I think I'll resolve to continue to eat and drink in excess.

Finish PGCE, get a job, move house, pay off credit card. Simple...
