We often end the year feeling a short fall or feeling chuffed with how we did, we invariably feel hungover.

 I figured instead of making some new random wish I’d do a bit of an audit to determine any personal growth achieved and any outstanding. If i did well on the investment I’d play it forward -if not I’d have the bones of a new game plan. An investment strategy for 2010.

 Here we go..

• i paid off my debts (a plus)
• i finished the renovations (now what do I do?)
• i began to desire (sigh)
• i shut one door even though Icouldn’t see the nextone open (now what do i do?)
• i started and dropped local theatre membership (what was i thinking?)
• i started and finished psychological and career counselling sessions (and i’ve gotta tell you there are some nutters and some genius operators out there)
• i learnt 8 good truths about myself (now what do I do?)
• i began the year with my elder sister and finished it with my twin – separated by an ocean (a blissful plus)
• i celebrated the birth of two darling babies to two dear friends (a plus)
• i painted 8 paintings (still arguing over the merit)
• i tweeted countless times (still think tweeting is silly)
• i blogged somewhat less (and was richer for the silence)
• i failed to tell some people i loved them (unforgivable)
• i realised what a great mother figure my aunt was (a plus)
• i interviewed dozens of people for 10 minutes and set up a new blog (a plus)
• i  discovered Hafez (a necessity)
• i ceased the incessant chatter to bloke (he was richer for the silence)
• i cemented my personal style (oh sure)
• i drank too much wine (but then promptly drank some more so that bottom line is blotto)
• i started exercising and lost 2 dress sizes (left them hanging on someone elses’ coat-hanger)
• i changed my hair style (working up to going grey when i’m sixty)
• i celebrated my birthday alone (sigh)
• i failed to join a personal gym (noooooooo dissonance there)

So all in all – a reasonable return on investment

Wiser? Nup. Richer? Yep. Fatter? Nup. Happier? I think so.

Happy new year - I get it

And right back atya – if anyone is reading
