First day of a new blog! It's 7:27am on February 29th 2008 - yes it's a leap year day! It's also day zero of finding the new me I hope!
I want to use this blog to help me achieve my goals really, which are:
* Lose some weight, I was drop dead gorgeous before having son 2 a year ago, now need to regain that gorgeousness
* Look after myself more generally, having kids means less time to facials and nail painting! Also look after myself more healthwise, attending doctors appointments more and that kind of thing
* Study for a professional qualification (not saying which one at the moment, but it has a reputation of being very boring ;-) )
*Making plenty of time for both of my children. I always seem sooooo tired :-(. More caffeine needed maybe lol.
* Improve the house. It's a rented house, so those improvements are mainly just going to be decorating - no point in spending huge amounts of money, but want it to look nice.
* And finally, talking of money, I aim to pay off most of my debts this year. There's only 1 debt (a Child tax repayment - arrrgh), that will take longer than a year to repay.
I intend to try and do a little towards each goal every day, whether it be half an hour on the exercise bike towards the weight loss goal or paying an extra 20p towards a debt. 10 minutes studying a book in the bath while having a facial works towards 2 goals at once ;-)
I know it's not going to be easy. I've got into bad habits, so remembering to achieve a little towards each goal will probably be the hardest bit. These goals are all extremely important to me though, so I'm determined this leap year will be the year I leap into a new life!
