OMG I am so grumpy today, doesnt bode well for the New Year lol. I went to bed very grumpy and tired and woke up this morning after a fitful sleeping night thinking Where am I? What day is it? and my mood hasnt improved at all. Yesterday was a really good day but everything seemed to happen at the same time and unfortunately it was when I was tired too. Stepson and son were a bit noisy last night, not intentionally or anything but I just seemed to notice every word and door being open and closed, even the dogs werent at their best last night either. Dexter for some reason would not have a wee when I put him oustide before I went to bed and I was out there with him for ages trying to make him go, every time he heard a noise he stopped and there seemed to be a lot of noise everywhere grrr. Finally he went and then yay I went to bed, but ....... he obviously decided he didint want to sleep in his own basket and got into Marleys and so Marley started barking ...... grrr again. Im dreading tonight with all those fireworks and stuff neither of them will go out or even sleep cos they will be scared. As ususal hubby has to work and it will be me "Billy No Mates" and the dogs having our own party ...... woweeee lol, at least they have their new bones to knaw on! It wont help tomorrow as I am starting a major diet, I feel like a lump of lard and look a cross between a teletubby and omg now I cant think of their names, a group of larger ladies dancing etc from 80s or 90s I dont know which. I cant stand it any longer I have to lose 14 lbs now, so between now and March that is my mission. Im always weighed when I go for my heart checkup and I want to be be slimmer for that so its good incentive for me. I have cut down on food since christmas day but dont feel any better yet tomorrow Ill weigh myself and jot it all down. Im eatinghealthy today, chicken, peppers, onion, mushrooms and new potatoes, I havent picked at anything yet, but saying that its only 1pm, I did have breakfast tho. Anyway the diet is one of my New Years resolutions along with a couple of others, a couple which are attainable and one hmmmm Im not really sure but I can at least try.
Resolutions are:
1. Diet
2. Use my coffee maker every day instead of just letting it sit on the work surface doing nothing.
3. Make sure I take all my tablets for my heart all the time instead of forgetting some. How can I preach to others when I dont always do what I say.
4. Stop clothes buying for one year ........ hmm now this will be very difficult and I am not sure I can do it, I am always tempted by something, but I will try. I have so many clothes in my wardrobe and a lot dont fit me anymore and they havent gone out of fashion so hopefully the diet will enable me to get into them. I can buy basics like underwear and stuff when I need them but no new blouses, jeans, cardigans or shoes or boots. The same applies to makeup, I can buy stuff that has run out but I really dont need another lipstick or nail varnish for a long time. Somehow I think the only way to even try to manage is to stay out of any clothes shops and only take cash! Its gonna be tricky but I will try.
4. Pay cash for food ..... hopefully then I wont add any not needed stuff to my basket.
5. Be much better with money ...... really need to do this cos I sure aint got any at the moment!
I wish everyone a happy, healthy, prosperous New Year. Hope 2011 is better than the last one for everyone.

The Roly-Polys...that's the name in case you're puzzling over it...but you're being ridiculous to compare yourself with them...silly girl! I often talk about resolutions during December but come Jan 1st I decide never to make them because I won't stick to them...but I make other resolutions throughout the year (haha don't stick to those either).
