Resolutions Once More

It's that time of year again when you think about what you have and haven't achieved in the last year and about what lies ahead in the coming year. Last night I thought back to this time last year and my what a year it's been. Last year I was with 'The Lawyer' preparing for 2011 and then of course that relationship disipated, I started my jewellery business which has been growing and growing, I met someone special ('The Englander'), we started seeing each other, moved in together and that fell apart, my little Milo is developing into a chatty, super sweet loveable rogue and I am looking towards 2012 as a once again single mum with a big plan.

2011 has of course been a mixed year for me. Plenty of ups and many downs but I am feeling positive and I have learnt some important lessons. 2012 is going to be a different year. Here's my plan for 2012, I look forward to looking back this time next year and seeing how much of my list I actually achieved...

• Build a 'Workingberlinmum' website
• Build a 'Miss Bea wants' website and re-start the blog
• Get my jewellery selling in a small selection of Berlin-based boutiques
• Speak to the Job Center about any possible support available for opening a bricks & mortar shop and if there is, develop the idea and write a business plan
• Double this years online sales of my jewellery on Dawanda and Etsy
• Secure paid writing work
• Work on my bilingual children's book ideas
• Cut down on Diet Coke to drinking it just sporadically
• Regularly exercise
• Work on my apartment further
• Get my tattoo on my arm finished
• Sell my jewellery at markets around Berlin

What are your plans for the coming year? I'd love to hear about what you want to achieve in 2012

Have a great New Years Eve EVERYONE 

and 

looking forward to 'seeing' you in the new year!
