I don’t do New Year’s resolutions. I don’t really see the point of them. This year, however, inspired by an online person who I know in real life, I’ve decided to write myself a list of 21 things I’d like to accomplish in 2021.
- Read 50 books this year.
- Write someone a letter once a month.
- Do at least 20 minutes of exercise each day.
- Have an at-home date night with my husband every second Friday (no children allowed!).
- Have dinner out with a friend at least six times this year (no children or husbands allowed!).
- Have a night away for our 20th wedding anniversary (COVID meant that didn’t happen last year).
- Family movie night once a month.
- Teach my girls to cook two meals each.
- Alcohol-free January.
- Complete a senior first aid course.
- Write one personal and one work blog post per fortnight.
- Plan and take a family holiday.
- Get three paid writing jobs.
- Write at least six chapters of the novel that’s been in my head for the last two years.
- Take each of my kids out to do something fun (just me and that kid) once per month.
- Talk to my mum at least once a week.
- Start having Sunday brunch all together.
- Wait thirty days before buying anything new to make sure I really need it.
- Join a book club.
- Volunteer in my son’s Prep class each week.
- Start a story journal with each of my daughters.
So far, I’m doing pretty well with this. Let’s see how I’m going by the middle of the year.
