2011. The Year of Getting On With It. Yes yes yes, my five faithful readers, it is So. On.
I have decided that this year I am no longer the person who buys stuff on ebay becuase she's stressed about an essay or worried about her Spousal Unit or Noddie. I am no longer the person who shares a bottle of wine with her Spousal Unit at the end of a rough day out of habit. I am no longer the person who cracks it when she (ahem) "can't fit in" a workout because she hasn't read the Spousal Unit's roster.
Now The Plan is This - 2011 Edition
- not buy ANY shoes or clothes until at least November. Exclusions: undies and running shoes. When you need them, you need them.
- maintain reasonable drinking habits including at least 4 alcohol-free days a week. Yeah yeah yeah, LBTEPA, you say, I've heard that before....and so you have. What can I say? It's time for another crack at it.
- plan my exercise schedule around my available time.
- put a notice on my pantry that says mindful? to remind myself that if I can't or don't want to notice myself eating something..... then I shouldn't be eating it.
In other news
- we're going camping this weekend. Eeeek. It's been nice knowing you.
- I'm having a grouse time organising our agency's teams for the local corporate triathlon in February. Here are the team lists
ALLSTARS
LBTEPA “PNF” C.
R*** “Chrissie” T.
E*** Javi M.
SUPERSTARS
C*** “Moffy” L.
S*** “Macca” H.
J*** “Crowie”O.
I think we'll do well.
It's been horribly hot and humid here this week, but we're not on fire or under water, for which blessings I could not be more grateful.
More anon, optimists!

Good luck on the shopping.
Before I left, I got all my yarn in one place. When I get back, I'm going to be getting it back to a civilised amount. (i.e. less than 100 litres of sock yarn.)

WHO ARE YOU WOMAN? AND WHAT DID YOU DO WITH LBTEPA? :-)
Splurge days are good. I'm down to one a week, or every other week, or maybe that's every other day. I've lost count...
Have fun camping- so jealous! You need to have a few wines whilst camping- it makes the ruggedness seem all the more rugged with a glass in your hand. Sara
i would totally fail on that shopping goal.
but i'm good with the alcohol free goal (now 9 full months since i've had any alcohol), although i think it is actually easier to cut it out completely than to scale back, but that may be just me.
