A new year's resolution
« on: December 31, 2012, 06:01:39 PM »
Humm, a new year, what should my goals be :thinking: I think I need to get the DTC running, the R&B would be nice to get running and then there is a little (ok :embarassed: its bigger than the DTC) Corliss cross compound that is extremely sexy :Love: sitting in my library just wanting some attention from me.

Or I could set myself something a little more normal/less interesting... maybe to try to get into that midnight blue velvet ballgown that I last fitted in...  :o a number of years ago.

Why not all of them ;D.

So guys what new year resolutions are you promising yourselves 8).

.. or kill two birds with the one stone and just put your inate gravity in the water?

I should really get and finish a couple of the part-built engines I have sitting around.

I have 365.25 days to finish one of the three builds I have going.  It shouldn't be too hard if I get my lazy bottom moving.  The way I look at,  I just have to keep chipping away at the stone even if it's only for one half of an hour a day.  Soon the stone will be gone!

Just for a laugh, I know it is not model engines but this is the gown I keep promising myself I must get back into.



As you can see I could once get into it, but the colour seems to have faded, either that or.. no I am sure they did colour film back then.

Sorry I do not intend on sharing it with anything or anyone ;)

Well, depend on it, I'm not going to resolve to get into my ball gown.  Might be something for Zee, but not me.  :)

Two years ago I made a resolution to not make any more damn resolutions.  Last year was the first year I stuck to my resolution.

Jo, may I say you look very charming in that gown?

Nice picture Jo - Zee is going to have to pull all the stops out to match that!

Does Zee have prior form for this sort of thing btw?

Goals? Resolutions? Hope? Mean to? Maybe? Should have? Never mind.

I do have a list.

Leave the car home and walk to the shop, at least once.

Clean the shop, at least once.

Have only 1 beer before dinner, at least once.

Go to bed before midnight, at least once.

I could add to the list but if I can get all this done, that should be enough.

A happy and prosperous New Year :Jester: to all.

Jerry
