still not on track...as usual

since this is "supposed" to be my confessions, then i must first confess that i love that i can pick & choose the color & font for my writings, or ramblings as they seem more likely to be. 

as usual, i had tons of things floating around in my head when i set out to start this entry, but alas, they have all gone into hiding and i am left typing whatever comes into my mind as my fingers move across the keyboard. here's confession #2 (in case you're keeping track) my vision is slightly blurry from the 2 glasses of wine that i have had tonight. it's not like bad blurry...it's like end of the month time to change the contacts blurry so i can't blame it completely on the wine.

confession #3: i haven't gotten back on track as far as healthy eating and exercising is concerned...while i'm at it, my budget planning has gone down the crapper, too. all in all not great for me and getting things back on track with the start of the new year. oh, well, that seems to be the story of my life...nothing is ever on track or going the way i'd envision it to go. i have worked out some, just not on a consistent basis. i have also attempted to eat healthier...again, just not consistently. as for the budgeting thing...that's never been an easy thing for me so i'm not surprised in the least little bit about that!

confession #4: i have read 3 books this month, 2 fiction & 1 non-fiction. i'm pretty proud of myself for that considering the fact that i didn't think i would make it through even one book. truth being told, i didn't really like the 2 fiction books, but since i bought them i felt an odd obligation to finish them. i get that way about things that i pay for...well, really, it's just that way with things like books, food, & drinks; i don't want to be wasteful is all.

confession #5 (and the final one for the night): i worked-out tonight while hubby took the kids out. i did a couple at-home workouts that i had recorded on my dvr. as a side note, i love my dvr and couldn't imagine my life without it (materialistic as that may be, it is completely true). anyway, i did 2 gilad workouts and damn if my ass doesn't hurt! i worked muscles that i didn't even know i had! i'm a little afraid of how sore i may feel tomorrow, but am really glad that i did them!

since it is still january (at least for a couple more days) i can say that i'm still trying to get my "new year" routine into gear.  so i'm newly, non-resolving (since i previously said that i wasn't doing resolutions) to read 2 books a month-one fiction, one non-fiction-and really that's the only thing. i can't even attempt to figure out a workout schedule or a healthy eating plan since i almost always play that by ear depending on how i feel each day. i have started trying to bake or cook new healthy type things so that's one step in the right direction.

this has so totally veered away from what i had originally intended to write & for that i will blame the wine!
