Happy New Year!
My Christmas was wonderful, busy, crazy and full of germ spreading children who managed to pass on the mother of all colds/flu. At least it hit me on the 26th and only ruined my New Year's Eve plans. I'm still not totally over it but at least I'm back among the living.
So being bed ridden gave me a lot of time to think. Reflect. Evaluate. Plan. I came to the conclusion that more than one area of my life is out of control and that it is up to me to take control. There is no magic pill and no fairy godmother to make everything all better. The only one who can stop the madness and turn things around is me. No excuses. No whining. Just me doing what I need to do to get my shit together.
2006 has to be the Year of Me. I can no longer put off dealing with my issues by making everyone and everything else more important than me. Easier said than done. I may have to make some of this up as I go along but at least I know what changes I have to make even if I'm not entirely sure how to make them.
Today is my first day back at work since December 16th and so I decided to also restart WW today. I've got my little blue notebook out and I'm writing down every bite that passes my lips. I'm debating whether to hit the treadmill tonight or if that will just send me into an uncontrollable coughing spasm. I suppose I could try and if it's too much, stop.
And while I was sick I picked up a new addiction: Fox's show 24. I'm frantically trying to get through the first 4 seasons before season 5 begins on the 15th. I know I don't watch a lot of TV but how in the world did I miss this show?
