So... it's not the first day of the year, and it's not even the first day of the week...but it's time for a first day for me. I'm determined to do better right now. I've given up on doing better this week, or even today...because one thing I've found is that I have absolutely no willpower and frankly, most days I don't seem to care as much as I should.
I've dropped another pant size, which is great...so I bought a pair of 'non fat girl' jeans, in my new size, without stretching fabric or a stretchy waist, in the MIDDLE OF THE HOLIDAYS. So yeah, they aren't a perfect fit. I can wear them, I can be comfortble in them, I just can't eat much while I'm wearing them if I want to breathe. I want to (what's the oppposite of outgrow??) undergrow them. :D
So....with prayer and plenty to do, I hope to move past this slump I'm in.
I scheduled my license exam. This means I also need to get back on the bandwagon of studying and refresh on some of the stuff I've forgotten. (which unfortunately, the more I read, the more I remember that I used to know but have now forgotten.)
Off to a good start so far anyway! On to the next project!

Too much coffee, or maybe not enough?
Good morning = Kitchen cleaned, finally found the table (maybe we can eat together again?) and swept the floors. Relatively healthy breakfast. Managed to avoid the toast that I desperately wanted. LOL
Bad night = Had a run in with a handful of starburst. Definitely not sugar free. I forgot that in order to stick with healthy choices, it helps to have been to the store and have healthy options on hand already. Ah well. Today is a new day.
Plenty of coffee. Mostly motivated. Should get started on the living room. Really don't want to. Really, in fact, would rather go crawl in the bed with my husband. It's a cold, drizzly day. But he only has about 90 minutes left to sleep though, and I'm pretty sure if I go in there now I'll wake him up for good, which sort of defeats the purpose of napping with him.
Got my son's Christmas shopping done. Yay. One person, finally done. Need to pick up a few other things for my daughter. And something for my husband. Very slim shopping this year. I miss having an unlimited budget. I've come to terms with the fact that we will probably never make the amount of money we used to, but I would like to at least not have to count every single penny we spend. I probably still will, just because that's how I am, but it will be nice to not stress over money all the time. :S
