- Get more organised. It is unacceptable to put all mail in a big box of chaos, which is then moved to a bigger cupboard of greater chaos, and left to fester.
- Send more things through the post. I put off the sending of the letter because it is not long, interesting or thoughtful enough, whilst knowing that it is better to receive a short missive than no missive at all.
- Cultivate my inner calm.
- Avoid saying things in arguments that I will later regret.
- I am sometimes accused of being self-righteous, which is hurtful. I dislike self-righteousness and seek to avoid it.
- Walk the dog every single day and forgive her for smelling so appalling.
- Stand up straighter and try not to frown so much.
- Pay more attention to the sky and what is happening in it (helps with number 3).
- Take more interest in and responsibility for the garden and what grows there.
- See the good in people.

4 it hurts even to remember them
6 some dog kindness though I know i won't walk him everyday but i did start taking him along when we go to the forest
7 I do too but wonder at you saying so as I've never noticed.
9 however small mine is.
and i have lots of 10s and 50s and 100s but one has to be realistic and stick to a few resolutions. How have you been doing so far?
