For some reason I often start 'resolutions' for want of a word, in September or December. To my mind, January is no time to go on a diet, jog, or save, or any of those things that seem to make people feel worse.
I do believe in resets though and goals; so a few small things I've been doing is
1. unsubscribing to newsletters and offers that come to my inbox. When it comes to buying books I'm too easily tempted.
This leads to my savings resolution- we need to make a decision on whether to do some renovation work to the house, or sell. In the meantime, separate from usual savings,
2. I'm going to do an envelope challenge to help pay for it.
I have had more interest in my crafts, with a new shop offering to sell them.
3. I need to treat it like a job, and set aside some time in the evening to get things made. It will also encourage me to use up all the craft bits I've collected.
4. Each week make one recipe I've saved online - then either write it down to keep, or delete it. I have four notebooks for each child and I write their favourites into ti, so they have them when I'm gone.
Anyone else undertaking 'a not a resolution' list?
