It's 2014

Wow! I hear you all exclaim.   It's 2014 mother fuckers!!!  Yeeah.  Along with this new year comes new years resolutions.

Jokes such as "today is the hottest day of the year so far" and other such nonsense.  I like new years and welcoming in the next stage of my life and wishing people well whoen I wouldn't normally have anything to say to them, but I don't think that the beginning of the year should be a time to decide one needs to change their lifestyle.

Life is ever changing as are we the people living it. We constantly change what we do depending on who we are on that day.

I was proud of myself in 2013 for making it to September before the exercising stopped. I shouldn't be proud of that being an achievement.  I love exercising when it's in the form of swimming. .. why on earth did I stop? Why should it being January mean I need to start again?  I need to start exercising again so that when I have to do that breakneck speed running to catch the bus in the morning so I'm not late for work, I don't jump onto the bus panting and sweating after the expelling of energy for 10 metres For wwhich I'd normally stroll.

I think everyone's new year's resolutions should be to keep doing what it is you've been doing the last few years as long as that's what makes you happy and keeps you healthy.

And in the words of my mate: my new year's resolution this year is the same as last years, to not die, so far so good.

If 2014 is even half as fun as 2013... I'm in for a great year.  X
