Resolutions

I’m always making them, resolutions that is. One that is ongoing is to have one cultural event per week. My week starts on Sunday so yesterday I went to the Holywell music room for a Schubert string quartet. Great. That’s me done and dusted for this week. Actually, I enjoyed it and didn’t agree with the Oxford white top in the queue behind me when he said, “I’m inclined to give Schubert a miss.” Pompous git.

Another resolution is to read. I’ve slipped into the habit of audio books. I listen on my ipod, tucked up in bed. I have two books to read for this month’s book clubs – Behind the Scenes at the Museum for BC2. I read this one years ago so may be able to get by with skimming. We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves for BC1 is a new one so will read diligently.

Exercise is a third resolution and I’ve gone back to the gym. I hate it but I know it is good for me. Ten minutes on the treadmill is about all I can take before I attack the machines. I miss Ben but will probably find another trainer so that I have to be there. I walk most days. Living close to town makes this easy and there are always the river walks which I love.
