So how did I go

FAIL

I got home and watched some 'glee', then went to see a friend, then D decided he wanted KFC, drove there, and then nearly fell asleep driving home. So went home, ate dinner then flaked it. This morning wasnt too bad. Got up at 5, went to Gym. Didnt wash my hair cos I gathered they would have some of the no wash spray (I only washed my hair yesterday), got out of the shower, and of course no spray. So today I am sporting a very sexy sleek oil slick....ick. But have had breakfast, about to brush my teeth and have started work. haha yeah I did well. Tonite is another crazy night. we are carving pumpkins. So off home at 3.30, drop in buy some pumpkins, pick up previously mentioned friend, then home for a salad for dinner, then mum and sis will be over. Then let the carving begin!!

Organising my daily routine

Ok, so like I said in my profile and original post, this blog was about me getting my shit together. So Im going to sort out a daily routine. I think I will have to change my hours at work or get up earlier. But it will mean a 5am start on non gym days and a 4.30 start on gym days. That or working from 8-4. eeek.



So Morning Routine:


Make Bed (except if hubby is still in there)
Shower and dressed
Gym
Makeup & hair
Wipe over sink
Breakfast - usually weetbix and fruit, or yoghurt & fruit

Check Diary

Clean dishes, wipe down surfaces used
Check that you have everything
Out the door

Night Routine:

Load of washing
Get dinner on
Clean up dishes
Tidy Up
Clothes ready for tomorrow
Shower and Moisturise

These are my basics for now. If I can stick to these, I am hoping to add bits and pieces.

Day 2 - Ok Im really not liking this one

Yep I give in for this one. I think its more a business type blog challenge. Im sure Ill be able to find better ones later.

So my first project...health. I am severely laking. I am uber tired at the moment and havent been taking my PCOS meds cos I havent been bothered going to the pharmacy, and have been suffering from allergies. I got rid of those issues a few years ago (the allergy ones) with a juice cleanse, so that is my plan for next week. I am also thinking about cutting down the TV next week. have a free weekend next weekend and only an hour in the evening, or no tv till after 7pm. The main issue is D having his op, he is still recovering. So maybe keep the TV Challenge for another week or so.

So plan for next week
Gym Monday, Wednesday Friday, Sauna on Tuesday.
Juice, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and maybe Wednesday

Body Brush Daily
Facemask Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday
Body Scrub Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday

2L water daily

30 min walk in the evenings

I definitely want this to be about health. .Afterwards focusing on more fruits, salads and vegies. Cut out the coffee, switch to herbal teas and go from there. We are looking at no red meat in our diets anyway, so stick to fish and chicken. It isnt too much differnt from what we have been trying to do for the last few weeks anyway.

New Blogger Challenge Starting tomorrow

http://www.problogger.net/31-days-to-building-a-better-blog/

Ok so here is my new challenge. 31days to a better blog. Lets go....well Ill start tomorrow. Tomorrow will also be the start of my superwoman blog. I will make sure I put up 30 posts on that one by the end of November.

Day 29 & 30 of 30 - I did it!!

Day 29- In this past month, what have you learned
Day 30- Your favorite song


Im going to mix these around, I dont want to end this on my favorite song.


Day 29 - My favorite song - It would have to be....... Lean on Me  When ever its quiet and Im all alone I sing this song. No its not about the words, its about the music. I love this song, and honestly I do love the lyrics too. I have stacks of other favorite songs, I love music, but this is the one I sing when I dont have anything else. My second favorite would be Sitting on the dock of the bay, classic Otis or anything by Norah Jones. I love the Blues, I love Jazz, I was born in the wrong country in the wrong era. 


Day 30 - What have I learnt? I have learnt that I focus on my weight too much, I am missing out of life. I have learnt that while I take stacks of photos, I dont take many of myself, or many of my friends. I have also learnt that I can stick to something. Now Im looking for my next challenge. 


Ive also learnt that I still fear people reading my blog..lol, but also  hope lots of people do. Im becoming more and more open about myself and my life, and Im ready to share it with the world.

Day 28- A picture of you last year and now, how have you changed since then



This pic is from this year. Heavier but happier. Below is the pic from last year. I still recognise my face in the pic last year, I seem to have lost it this year.

I was a lot healthier last year also. This year I have suffered pretty badly because of the PCOS. I have had a few cysts burst, and major issues with ears and face infections due to sinus and allergy issues. My health is slowly getting better, but it has definitely taken its toll on weight and even just the clarity of my skin. 

Emotionally, I am a lot happier this year though. Yesterday hubby and I celebrated 5 years together, and are the happiest we have ever been. Life is good. We dont have a lot of money, we dont spend a lot of time with other people, but we are content. Hopefully next year everything will merge and not only will we continue being happy, but hopefully I will be a lot healthier also.
