Sadly I don't need that kind of reassurance to know I've overdone it this christmas
Kes Posted - 01 Jan 2012 : 6:54:00 PM
Pheebs, I'm waiting to see if Kes *groans* when I next get on, I'm guessing if he does I've overdone things

I think I'm going to have to hop on to the weight loss band wagon
phoenixbruka Posted - 30 Dec 2011 : 6:57:41 PM
I need to stop eating so much crap so I lose weight naturally (yeah right!)

I HAVE to be organised about the show schedule for next year and not last minute (finances allowing)

I REALLY want to get Boysie out doing more dressage and get his jumping going again so Angel can work towards jumping him

Get Angel BSJA registered and get her and shadow to the junior shows so she can get she double clears and qualify for scope

Unfortunately most of its finance dependedent

Try to cook hubbie a meal... at least once a month

Try to make an effort not to look- and smell-like a walking muck heap ALL the time!

and win the lottery

Im going to find a job! I filled out an app form last night to sign on for the first time in my life...very depressing! It wont be for long tho!! Im also gong to get superfit again with the aid of my new fancy sports watch and heart rate monitor (thank you santa). Im going to back storm and save enough money to go snowboarding next new year. I never been skiing or snowboarding and its on my bucket list!
delly-b Posted - 30 Dec 2011 : 6:23:47 PM
Well without risking disappointing myself, I wont make too many, but I would like to give myself a little get up and go!! I have a new "business" plan that I want to see through and just hope Ill have the stamina to carry on with it...

Other than that, I would love the normal, get healthy, wealthy and wise.... mmmmmm some chance!!! ha ha ha
Kes Posted - 30 Dec 2011 : 2:53:46 PM
There seems to be a 'weight loss' thing for a few of us but really by the time we all get to the end of Winter I bet most of our mince pie and cream weight has dropped off anyway! Slogging through mud with a laden wheelbarrow must burn a fair few off
I'm also going for saving a few pennies although probably not a hope in hell for that as I have planned to get a new saddle in the Spring
Delyth Posted - 30 Dec 2011 : 2:28:59 PM
Continue with weight loss and manage money better !!!! Leaner times ahead and I spend too much !!!!!

..... not be so picky about new homes ....

Bet that's a no-hoper too!!!

Mrs Vlacq Posted - 30 Dec 2011 : 2:03:47 PM
Another one for the 'loose two stone' (lack of willpower when doughnuts around). Halve the number of neddies (some hope), so we are not heamoraging dosh. Do more with the 'stunners' languishing in the fields and stables, not be so picky about new homes, (difficult as they are members of the family you are parting with). Plus get OH mended, he's had a grim 3 months. 2012 will be strange the first for over 35 years no Vlacq foals.
Mrs V the ancient.

To really get Lily going in 2012 (thwarted by splint last year, and to be honest leaving her to mature didn't hurt her - she's not 7 til next June, and my giantess is finally starting to fill out and develop a bottom ). Was full of the best intentions this morning and arrived at her stable in thick winter jodhs and plenty of reflective clothing, only then did I take into account the howling wind, and - by the time the neds had finished their breakfasts - the freezing rain/hail that started bucketing down. So I contented myself (and irritated her) with removing some of the mud, wrapping her up in her combo rug and turning her out. She proved this was a wise decision by flying off down the field with her heels frequently in the air and lots of head twirling , so probably just as well I didn't take her off for her first hack for a week on her own down our fairly busy lanes Will put all the clobber on again tomorrow and try again (but must admit haven't checked the forecast yet ).

I want to save some money every month even if its only £10! hate being skint all the time! I need to lose 2 stones. I must ride my horse some time soon. Get a new awning for my caravan. buy some more hens....are you yawning yet?
Honeyb060674 Posted - 29 Dec 2011 : 7:41:31 PM
Wow Carol..that's some serious resolving to be had!! (No mention of sprouts I notice!! ) Look at it this way, maybe all the other mums think you're one of the really posh horsey set....hurraaahh Henry fnah fnah!!
Hmmmmmm Ride more (when it's not like Kansas out there!) Get to a couple of pleasure rides, first timers...need to be brave! BE BRAVER!! And I'm far too comfy in my jods & scruffs, so I guess to make more effort (brush hair, dig out some warpaint occasionally..etc etc!!) Keep my house as clean & tidy as my stable?!?
dinkidoo Posted - 29 Dec 2011 : 7:32:01 PM
No thats all off the top of my head!!!
After just waiting in town to pick my husband up from work and seeing all the girls on their nights out i think i had better add that i want to be more glamorous in the new year too!! Rolling up to pick Isobel from school with wellies, filthy coat and haylage poking out from under my hat is not a good look!!
Pashon2001 Posted - 29 Dec 2011 : 7:17:19 PM
My resolution may seem a little sad to some, but after an awful year of losing too many beasties the one little thing I have to do is to finally take Hakkas picture off my phone as the wallpaper, 2012 is going to be a better year and pictures of the departed have to go. They will always be in my memory and photos are on my pc or my walls for the mourning over. Roll on a happier year.
Pheebs Posted - 29 Dec 2011 : 7:11:35 PM
Oh dear Kes we've been put to shame better get thinking!
Kes Posted - 29 Dec 2011 : 7:09:50 PM
Wow Dinkidoo, you've put some serious thought into this already :)
dinkidoo Posted - 29 Dec 2011 : 7:02:35 PM
Lose 2 stone
Get both lead rein ponies going well and both jockeys doing their up downs!
Have a 4 x 4 by March
Be more organised
Go to Malvern even if its only to watch but even better to compete
Actually finish decorating and renovating the house!
Ride more
Be on time
Be a good mummy, wife and daughter
Kes Posted - 29 Dec 2011 : 7:01:19 PM
Ah, it's not just me then?? I can't think of anything life-altering as such, just lame things like 'I won't dump wet rugs in the corner to 'deal with' later'
Pheebs Posted - 29 Dec 2011 : 6:56:31 PM
Hmmm I'll have to get back to you on this one
