I haven't been making New Year Resolutions over recent years but this time I've decided to make a proper effort not to waste so much food - mainly green vegetables, as I don't seem to have a problem with fruit, which I always eat.
Since I already have everything I need, I don't spend much money, but will make an effort not to be wasteful here, either. We've all been too generous with the kids and there was a noticeable reining back this Christmas from all concerned. In the five years of Emma's life I've bought her so many books, she rolls her eyes when she looks in the new book cupboard and slams the door shut as though she simply can't stand to see another book! She can read already and doesn't start school till the end of January.
Frank and Michael, it's good to know I'm not alone in being addicted to some things, though I do carry it to extremes. Yesterday I think I did about 20 jigsaws! I'm quite blown away by the cleverness of the programmers in making them up - you can choose from thousands of pictures, number of pieces, and type of cut. I haven't left the house - except to go in the swimming pool - for days!!!! I must make an effort to do some shopping today and maybe see a movie.
