L50-2: New Yearresolutions

I limited myselfto two modest ambitions: to do physical exercises every morning and to readmore of an evening. An all-night party on New Year's Eve provided me with agood excuse for not carrying out either of these new resolutions on the firstday of the year, but on the second, I applied myself assiduously to the task.The daily exercises lasted only 11 minutes and I proposed to do them early inthe morning before anyone had got up. The self-discipline required to dragmyself out of bed 11 minutes earlier than usual was considerable. Nevertheless,I managed to creep down into the living room for two days before anyone foundme out.After jumping about on the carpet and twisting the human frame intouncomfortable positions, I sat down at the breakfast table in an exhaustedcondition.It was this that betrayed me. The next morning the whole familytrooped in to watch the performance.
