Very bad start to the year...

Promises, promises.

Yep, I fucked up.  Good thing is, I have actually learned some lessons over the last wee while.  

I shan't go over all of the woes I've had during the last month or so.  Instead, I am going to move onwards and upwards.  No promises.  One day at a time for me.  It's just the way it has to be.

Tonight I watched the premiere of a show called, "Being Erica" on CBC.  It was amazing to me how poignant the topic of the show was for me.  I really need to value my own opinion.  I've spent so much of my life more concerned with what other people think of me, than I have thinking about how valuable my own opinion is.  Yep, it will take some serious brain re-training, but it's my brain, I should be able to do it.

Today was a huge moment in our lives; our wee man started school!  He is moving onwards and upwards and it is my duty to myself and my family to do the same for myself.  For those of you who didn't know this about me, I socially smoke.  Well, I did.  It's not a NY resolution to stop, just a smart decision that was made upon reflection of my life.  I can't bear the idea that one day our wee man might have to visit me in the hospital, wondering why I chose cigarettes over him.  I choose good health.  I choose my family.  And for all my smoker friends, I will never get all preachy with you about it.

After I drop Callum off at school tomorrow I am going to go to my gym, workout on the elliptical, and then do the weight circuit.  A true suburban Mum, but I'll wear that title like a badge.

Grim moment of the NY:
Realizing that Dr. Phil had caramel sauce all over his head.  Yep, I rested a caramel cake on my weight loss book - yikes!  Time for a change, eh?
