I thought some hearts might make you forget all those months I didn't post anything.. Did it?
A LOT has happened since the last time I managed to update this blog. I expect almost everyone stopped checking in after a while and that's understandable - I suck at keeping this one simple promise. But hey, better late than never, right?
So.. where to begin..
I won't write about everything, and the things I do write about won't be in any kind of order of importance because there's a lot of stuff I have already forgotten about and will remember at some later date - which will be the moment you hear about those things.
Anyway, what's happened since September? I worked a lot because the guy I used to work with was sick all the time and off work a lot, meaning it was only the three of us holding the fort. That's how it'll continue, since the guy doesn't work there anymore. I'm actually quite happy about that for a couple of reasons - he was not happy working there, happy with his life or with himself, making working with him unbearable and that made me miserable. As a result - I was unhappy and didn't perform as well as I should. But now he is gone, and I've never felt better at work - dominating and leaving the boys behind. They'll have to play catch up to me now :) This is fantastic for me personally, my well-being and more money for me! Too bad it had to end so badly for him, but there's nothing I could have done differently - he had to hit rock bottom to realize he needs help, but for some reason I think he'll still dig his way deeper..
Every now and then I started some sort of diet that worked for a little while but I always ended up giving up on it and didn't find anything I could stick with.. Well, I'm happy to report that I've finally found something I've stuck to! It's worked for me before and it's working now! I even got B to start this with me and it's been amazing to work on this together and it's made our relationship stronger than ever! We started 1st of January and we've lost quite a lot since then - and it's only the beginning! We'll stick to this one and Beach Body 2016 maybe. No bullshit diets - fasting or changing our eating habits radically - all about things we can actually stick to. And we've lost all this weight without doing exercise! That's my dream diet! Of course we're going to introduce exercise to our new life style but we don't have to do it now or do shit loads right now. We'll start soft and easy, then build up from that. Because, I love exercise.. not. I'm not going to bring up any kg or cm we've lost because I don't want to jinx it.
My two week holiday started today! We've got all kinds of things planned, but mostly I'm looking forward to spending time with my family and friends. Also some couch time will be much appreciated. You know, lounging all day doing nothing but watching movies or reading a good book.. Fifty Shades of Grey is just waiting there for me, and I really want to read them again before the movie comes out! I've been waiting for that since I read the first book back in 2011 or something! Thankfully it comes out soonish. Anyway, time with family and friends.. Today we went down to the countryside, tomorrow will be going out of town (just B and I - romantic getaway?) and next weekend we're headed to J-town to see I! That'll be super fun, because last time I went, it was just me and this time I get to bring S and B with me!! Awesome! We're going to party hard and eat out! (something we don't do very often nowadays). Also, J has grown a lot and speaks more now. Mostly just words, no full sentences but she's not stupid. She's very smart - especially when it comes to distracting one to get something or do something she's not supposed to have or do. A very strong-willed little kid that is.. Don't know where she gets it from.. Mom and Dad aren't at all stubborn.. ;) I can't even imagine what my child will be like.. All I can hope for is that she'll be as in love with Nan as J is.
The last holiday weekend is all about S and I. She'll be coming over to stay the weekend and we'll do all the super girly things they do in movies! Bitch about boys - while getting drunk. Watch movies - while getting drunk. Play board games and brush each others hair (wtf) - while getting drunk. Before all this super girly fun we're gonna have, we're gonna go get tattoos. S already knows what she wants to get, but at the moment I have no idea what I want.. Need to ask Mr Google. I know where I'd want something, but I can't decide what to get.. Thankfully there's still time to figure that out.
There's a few things I want to get done at some point during these two weeks - get a hair cut. I haven't got anything done to my hair for a couple of years. I don't really know what I want to do with it, so I'm counting on some professional person to tell me what would look good :) I also want to get my eye brows and eye lashes dyed. Haven't done that since.. ever. But I'm sure it'll look good.. hopefully. I want to go shopping. Yes! Me - shopping! I don't actually want to buy anything nor am I looking for something. I think I just want to go walk around all the shops for no reason. Let's not call that shopping, let's call it going-to-town-for-something-I-probably-will-never-wear-but-have-to-have-anyway :)
One more thing. Changing our diet wasn't enough, we wanted to change our lives a little in the process of losing weight. We've started going to bed earlier whenever we're in work the next day, and we wont stay up too late even if we're off the next day, unless there's a reason for it. Like now - I'd normally be in bed right now trying to fall asleep, but I'm off tomorrow and I'm writing this blog, so going to bed can wait a little longer.. We also decided to leave all our problems behind us and start fresh this year. New outlook on life, new healthier way of living, new goals and new perspective. So far it's worked great! We don't fight nearly as much as we did before, and that is probably because we've finally committed to doing something together - same ship and all. We decided this year will be great, but that's left to be seen. Knocking on wood. So many great things have happened and are happening right now - I'm worried something bad will happen. Some say I should turn that around and think, something bad has already happened so why can't the good things come now? I'm thinking - bad things have happened, good things have happened - good things have happened, bad things have happened. They always come in two's. Loads of good things - massive bad thing? CPO (Chronic Pessimistic Outlook) or don't want to spit in the face of the Universe?
Dreamland, here we come!
