Why?
Why
did I resolve to write this piece whilst sitting at the St Kilda beach watching
all the skinny girls run past with their matching Boxing Day Sale Lorna Jane outfits?

Ah
well; despite my normal annual resolutions NOT to make resolutions, here goes
nothing….
well; despite my normal annual resolutions NOT to make resolutions, here goes
nothing….
2016 is the year I
will :
will :
- Have
no more excuses – shift the baby weight, because…well…I have no more
babies. With a blink of a cupcake, they have now both been replaced by busy,
little people.
- Sit
down to eat breakfast…and have more toast with my butter…and whilst I’m at
it, appreciate I can just have eggs on toast (bacon does not always have to be
part of a cooked breakfast).
- Choose
the PLAYground before PLAYschool.
- Learn
how to apply fake eyelashes – anything to take the attention from below.
- Volunteer
at kinder with a smile ; need to remember that everyone’s time is precious.
- Try
not to be huddled beside the front door, white knuckling a glass of weeknight,
cheap wine, waiting for Husband to get home from work.
- Exercise.
And I’m not going to lie and say to get ‘fit’, dammit; I want to be ‘skinny’. Healthy
should always be a given.
- Learn
to garden; not just hack the crap back on everything when I’m venting.
- Actually
consider the salad section on a restaurant menu.
- Snuggle
and dance with my angels at every opportunity.
- Drink
less; enjoy it more.
- Take
up ironing…ha! Just checking if you’re still with me…As if! (That was a
ridiculous suggestion, Husband!)
- Blog
my buttocks off! Give this world a red, hot crack.
And
so LOOK OUT, 2016……bring it!

#NB : Just as an FYI, no one should ever start any resolutions on January 1st
when you’re tired, (hungry) and emotional….so, if you do happen to see me
chowing down on hot fries with lashings of aioli on the 1st or
possibly even the 2nd, please….just look away…..
