How I did it: Erik gave me a card, inside there were some lyrics from a favourite song of ours, then it said 'turn on the radio', which I did, and the song was playing. Then, Erik gave me a box, and said I couldn't open it unless I answered yes to a question, hehe, and of course, I did say yes, and in the box was a gold and pink locket with our pictures inside :) Read how I did it…
How I did it: Read ebooks, borrowed library books, and finished a few books I had kicking around at home. I wanted to read a lot more than I did last year (which wasn't too bad a number of books, really), and I have a lot of lists of books to read, so the choice was always great. And I love my local library, it is a very up-to-date and enjoyable system, not like back in the UK. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I'd had a basic step counter before, and it didn't really do the job, the smallest movement would register as a step. So I decided to buy a better one, and I am hoping to use it for a week in every day activity (as it stores your steps for a week), see the average number I am getting and try and increase that number by 100 each week, until I get to 10,000. But I can thoroughly recommend the one I bought, it is an Omron 'Walking Style II',… Read how I did it…

I need to be going to bed much earlier, also. I am getting up reasonable early some days, then crazy late on others. It’s very annoying.
