I normally hate January! It is usually cold and wet and nobody has any money so you just sit at home eating all the leftover chocolate from Christmas that you promised yourself you wouldn't touch once January 1st rolled around. This year however I am quite enjoying it so far, it is only the 9th, I'm not sure if its because the weather has been lovely or because I am still on a high from a week in New York.
The best thing about January is that it is a great excuse for a new start, an empty ready to fill with wonderful memories and really make the most of. So here are my 2017 goals both personally and for this blog that I would like to achieve this year:
1. Blog once a week. I want to be able to look back on the 1st January 2018 and see at least 52 posts which document our life this year. Obviously more would be great but lets not make promises I'm not sure I can keep.
2. Take more pictures. I think this blog is the perfect excuse to take my camera everywhere I go this year. I love photography and really want to understand my camera better to get the best out of it.
3. Always take my make-up off before I go to bed. I am awful at this! I would say at least 3 nights a week I go to bed with my make-up on and my skin hates me for it. It takes seconds to take off and makes such a big difference so I am going to make sure I stick to this one.
4. Drink more water. Another one which really shouldn't be difficult to do, during the week at work I drink almost 2 litres every day but at the weekend I have hardly anything. We have just brought a water filter jug so I am hoping that might encourage me a little bit.
5. Move more. I am the laziest person you could possibly meet and it is catching up with me. Before the wedding last year I worked out quite a bit and was exercising more regularly but since then I have done nothing and my trousers are a little tight so I am going to aim for at least 30 minutes of exercise 3 times a week. Maybe.
2016 was an amazing year full of life changing moments so I am looking forward to seeing how 2017 compares.
Do you have any new years resolutions? Or have you already broken them?
