A local Betoota Heights man is finally starting to get back into the swing of things, it can be confirmed today.

Nearly two weeks after a making his new year's resolutions, Aaron Pritchard explained to The Advocate that he hasn't had the most productive start to the year.

"Ah look, I'm north of 30 now, and I never really bought into the hustle culture thing," laughed Pritchard.

"So it was very much an easing into the year for me."

"Which meant some relatively short days, and some nice little rewards for getting into my desk and opening my computer," he continued, referencing the cold alcoholic beverages that he used as carrots.

Aaron explained that he's gradually been trying to wean his brain off the dopamine hits that have come from tins, and his finally starting to see the results.

"Yeah, no more drinking on a Tuesday for no particular reason like I did at the back end of Silly Season, or in Gooch week after Christmas."

"And it's showing."

"The skin underneath my dominant fingernail is finally starting to heal, and doesn't hurt when I open a can of something."

Pritchard said that the likes of Mt Franks and the buch's that were on hand everywhere he looked at his parent's and inlaw's place also didn't help.

"Yeah a can of Kombucha with breakfast and two tins of bubbly water at lunch probably isn't something I should be getting used to," he confirmed.

"So it's good to be back on the straight and narrow."

More to come.
