So I started the year wonderfully, a new year and my actual friends around me... I appreciated everyone being there. The moment that stands out the most was when Carys and I had a chat about her sister, and how much she appreciates me being there for Laura. It's nice to know that I have had a positive impact- it's all I want really, to be there for my friends, to help them when they need me.
It means Tammy, Laura and I- as the only non-settled people in our friendship group- are adament to enjoy ourselves this year... couples have dinner parties- we have bar/man crawls... hehe! I am very much looking forward to our first one in a couple of weeks, and in the mean time, just getting to spend more time with them both.
Being back at school has made my 2 main NY resolutions hard- I am supposed to be being more positive/ getting less stressed by things, and also was supposed to stop drinking mid week and exercise more.
The stressed thing is kinda happening, I'm doing the traditional count to 10 and go to pilates to calm myself and de-clutter my brain... but with so much going on at school- a parent's evening every week, the play, exams and UCAS etc... it's hard!
The alcohol thing is a no-go... I can still only go 2 days- it's not that I feel I need alcohol or that I get drunk, it's more the comfort of a hearty glass of red wine, beating a cup of tea or squash! Similarly, being so physically and mentally drained from teaching is meaning I can't face an hour of hardcore aerobics... need to change this asap!
So here's to being happy, maybe part of worrying/stressing less includes worrying about keeping my resolutions- but screw being fat!
I have been talking to people about getting away for Chritmas this coming year, Chris is up for it, as is Tammy- we've talked about Ireland or Miami... now that I'm not going to HP world this summer, maybe my savings should go on having a good Christmas- it would be nice to have had 1 in my life...
