2010 - the year of ME

Thursday, December 31, 2009



Wow.

Another year over, another one about to begin.

I've been thinking a lot about the new year and what I want it to be. The last nearly 4 years have been about pregnancy and babies - 2006: mostly pregnant, 2007: Josh born, 2008: pregnant and Zoe born, 2009: sleep deprived blur.

Might sound a little selfish, but I want 2010 to be more about me. I want to:

{get active}

{get healthy}

{achieve a healthy weight}

{do more things that make me happy like decorating my home, collecting handmade stationery as well as making some of my own for my family and friends}

{continue trying to buy gifts for people that are from small business or hobbyists for that extra personal touch}

{take time out to restore my relationship with my Creator which has fallen by the wayside primarily because of the last four years (see above!)}

{enjoy my friends more by socialising with them child free}

{take time out for manicures and pedicures because they are so indulgent and fun (I found a place last week that does both for $42!!)}

{go to more live shows}.

I won't be upset  with myself if I don't achieve all these things in their fullness, but I want something to aspire to next year which involves redefining myself a little so I can be something much more than mummy.

Wishing you all a wonderful transition into the year 2010. xo

  2. What a great idea. I think all too often we lose ourselves in being someone else - mummy, wife, worker etc.

    You will be better at all those things because you take time for yourself.

  5. You've said exactly what I want to achieve in 2010. I want/need to focus a little more on me, I think it will also make be a better mum/wife/friend/daughter.
