2010 - What Now?

I liked the old list and there's still work to do. Carried forward (with a little rewording):

- Eat better
- Keep Exercising
- Improve my guitar skill level further.
- Figure out my next career step.
- Make more of an effort to better understand important, but far away, happenings.
- Cook more varied meals.
- Isolate myself less at work at lunch time.
- Try harder to meet people.
- Try harder not to have that argumentative tone in friendly conversation.
- Visit more of the UK. None of it is that far away.
- Weigh less than eleven and a half stone.
- Put away less alcohol.
- Clean up more.
- Don't cave in to climate change propaganda beyond career supporting lip service.
- Keep walking. Do some really long walks.
- Code something outside of work. Looking like Android.
- Keep plants alive.

New:

- Make a decision regarding buying vs renting longer term.
- Get involved in some house refurb work and see if it's something i'd like to pursue further.

This is the least thought i've put into this since I started doing it 2-3 years back, partly because you need to be in a certain frame of mind for this which today i'm not,
and mostly because i've come to understand the aspect of doing this that I find beneficial and enjoyable. This post isn't anything like as important as the one that comes in 364 days.
That's also why what I posted yesterday was extremely long whilst this is fairly short.

What about the accountability cop out? I'll reconcile it in my own mind as i'm sure I already do. If the 2008 weekly review didn't force me to act on things, it's hard to see what will.

What an unsatisfying end to a new years resolution post.
