Turned over a new leaf....

OK its more tree than leaf but you get the idea


My Mother used to always say just "turn over a leaf" when something had gone wrong or upset me, or if she wanted me to change a behaviour, like an untidy bedroom. In other words put it behind you and move on. So I am turning over my new leaf today (granted it's been turned over so many times it's in danger of disintegrating but who's counting)
I weighed myself yesterday and, whilst it is nowhere near where I need it to be, it was not quite as bad as I expected. In fact I'm actually 2lb down from what I was last time so that's actually a boost.
I have taken a couple of days to list everything I want to do and a timescale, a realistic one, that is achievable. I love making lists. Having done that, I am now full of positive energy and raring to go (it's that new leaf I'm telling you, it's got magical powers!) (and no it's not one of THOSE leaf's !)
Menu Planning done, shopping list done, list of things I want to achieve each day this week done, I am so organised it's like a military operation. So "Operation Arse Kick" has commenced with much approval from General Babes, who says the watch word is Proactive not Reactive. This may be a long campaign but we will be victorious!!! (Oooh I feel all Winston Churchill)

So once more into the breach or something like that anyway.

I think your saying are a bit mixed! Must be the effect of smoking big cigars!!

KING HENRY V:
Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more;
Or close the wall up with our English dead.

Well what do I know I'm bloody Scottish, and they're both English. Trust you've been on holiday rather than avoiding blogland so hope had a good one.

Best of luck, Kerri - your positive vibes will certainly help. And I love a good list, too!

Thanks guys, organisation surely is the key and I haven't lost my positive thinking in my sleep which is a boost!
