Resolutions for 2024

[old man emu]

Here we go again. A new calendar to put up and a pocketful of good intentions. 

 

My first resolution for 2024:

There are times when I am doing a mundane task and my thoughts are free to wander randomly over a wide range of topics. Unfortunately, new thoughts tend to erase the earlier ones and when I try to recall them, they fail to answer the call. I've often thought of some cracking Quickies while pushing the mower, or sanding a window frame, but by the time I get back inside, they are forgotten

 

So from now on, I am going to follow Santa's lead: make a list and check it twice. When I think of something worthy sharing, I'm going to drop everything and rush to my desk to write it down. The same is going to apply when those thoughts relate to things I need to get at Bunnings or the supermarkets.

 

My second resolution for 2024:

Remember to check that I have the list of things I need to get at Bunnings or the supermarkets in my wallet, with my plastic, before I leave the house.

I forget that I brought a list.

The thing you don't want a list for is a cruise boat.    Nev

My resolutions:

• Finish this house redecoration ASAP.. It is now three months later than I wanted.. Hopefully will be done by March
• Fly more
• Spend a little less time on the forums... Only because I find them en easy distraction from achieveing  former two

My resolution for 2024 is to forget about NY resolutions that are easily forgotten, anyway.

 

But I do need to sharpen my focus, especially when I end up in a certain spot, and then try to remember what it was I went there for .....

 

An older persons life in a piechart .....

I didn't make any. I always leave everything till the last minute. . That's not very resolute. It can be about Pixels too.  Nev

The flying we'd really like to see you doing is England to Australia.

 

I bought a nice bottle of red to share with you for Xmas. But I had to drink it myself because you didn't turn up.

By that definition,  I'm definitely a dog.

I have the same resolution every year - to tidy up the shed. Also every year it doesn't get done. You need a packed lunch, a GPS and possibly even an EPIRB to even think of venturing in there.

My New Years Resolution is to procrastinate less. This is the same as last year and the year before.  Maybe this year I will do it but if not perhaps 2025 or 2026.

That sounds more like uncertainty, not procrastination.... maybe.

[willedoo]

I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not sure.

[red750]

To write 2024, not 2023.

[facthunter]

To not leave everything till the last minute.   Nev
