Out with the old, in with the new.

I wasn’t sorry to say goodbye to 2009 – despite the highs, the lows of the year were pretty dire. I did pretty well with my new year resolution of last year which was to de-clutter, although you wouldn’t say that from looking at the room that I’m in. I emptied my cupboards of clothes I no longer wear which has left me with very little left which can be awkward. The garage got thoroughly cleaned out, the pipes in the house are getting de-gunked since I had the installation of a water softener and the piles of the Twat’s DVDs have been removed from the living room and are now in a box. In the garage.

So that’s an on-going resolution, I think.

Along with that, I also aim to get a job, but as the days go by I feel more and more incompetent and less sure of myself. I can still answer the phone, but all those other skills that I once had aren’t being used making me feel less sure of what I can apply for. I’ll find something – heck, I have 12 months ahead of me. Twelve, shiny, new months which also include the World Cup.

So things aren’t too bad.

Happy New Year everybody – I hope it’s a good one.
