Wow, it’s been such a long time since I’ve
updated my goals, I’m actually embarrassedJ. I’ve been busy, had some stressful times which took their toll
on me. Just when I was beginning to cheer up, Cub goes and gets a fracture. He
had a little accident with a desk at school, which ended up breaking the ends
of two fingers of his left hand. He’s walking about with a cast now, though it
doesn’t really stop him from hunting for the right chocolate.
Now, that’s commitmentJ.
Moving on to my goals, I have been
faring badly overall. Here’s how the past few weeks have been:
1. I have been more mindful of what I’m eating. The ‘when’ and ‘how
much’ still need work. I’ve cut down on meat, increased my fruit and veggie
intake. Carbs and chocolate are a problem, though J.
2. I have been reading quite a bit. Three
books in the past month J
3. I have been spending time with Cub –
reading, playing and crafting.
4. I haven’t nagged much – it’s
actually easier to put that towel back on the hanger myself than do the whole ‘
how many times do I have to say this’ lecture yet again.
1. Worked out on an average of about two
- three days
2. Blogging has been kind of random
3. Prayers have been irregular and hurried.
4. My time management still sucks.
5. No improvement on the job hunting
front.
So, now you know where I’m at. I have
actually gained 3 kg since the start of the year. Yes, it’s that bad L. Anyway, I
haven’t given up hope. I found this on Facebook recently and made it my mantra
for now:
Let’s see, what else has been happening
at my end?? A little trip to Bangalore
(which was perfect timing, just after my shopping banJ), my 10th
wedding anniversary, a family get together of my Mom’s extended family and Cub’s
accident (see above). Coming up later this month: my birthday, a wedding at
Kozhikode , getting Cub ready to start big boy school and
looking forward to the rains.
May has been unbearably hot this year,
though it’s really breezy today. The good thing is that it’s put me off heavy
food; I’m really into salads right now – veggie, fruit or a mix of both!!
So tell me guys, how has it been so
far?? Are your New Year resolutions still alive, or have they turned to dust??

Thanks, Kalyani!! Can you believe that a quarter of the year is over? I hope to do better the rest of the year too!
Deleteresolutions, I will just burst out crying, some I am still following, some though I DON'T EVEN KNOW why I bothered to include it into resolution list...good to see you back and hoping cub gets well before his big day
ReplyDeleteI know how you feel :-). One of my most important resolutions was regarding health and fitness and that's fared the worst :-(. Hope things get better!
DeletePositive vibes sent cub's way...I hope the cast is removed soon and he gets bouncy at the earliest...
ReplyDeleteI'm (in)famous for breaking all the new years' resolutions the very first week into the year :-/ So, I think you are doing a much better job...and I totally agree with that quote :D
Congrats on your tenth ^_^
Thank you, Swarnali!! Yeah, the cast is really cramping his style :-). I'm trying to repeat that quote to myself every night before bed and every morning after I wake up :-)
DeleteOh poor baby!! :( Hope he recovers soon! xoxox
ReplyDeleteI hope so too! We need to go every 3 days to change his dressing, and we can't wait for the whole process to get over.
